Aye. It's a hard game. So's Devil May Cry 3, though RedMage may not think so. Some of the mini-games of Final Fantasy X are really hard! Oh and Silent Hill 4. It's hard keeping candles in good supply, and trying to figure out how you need to protect Eileen....

Metal Gear Solid 3 can be hard, as there's no radar (strictly speaking), and those b*****d enemy soldiers do know how to kill you effectively. Has nyone been able to defeat The End on Hard mode? If you're looking for a stamina victory, it's probably impossible...

DMC3 annoyed the crap out of me.

I loved MGS3. CQC was the best thing they ever did for that game. Getting rid of the soliton radar really made it challenging.

As for The End, you gotta sneak up on him. You'll end up fighting him for a LONG time going for a stamina victory. I managed to get one in Extreme, but he's a tough one. I either sneak up close enough to pop him in the head a few times, or hold him up, and cap him when he tries to escape. Sometimes, you can get in a tackle/CQC while he's trying to run away.

My son says that "Mr. Driller" is insanely difficult... it's an old game created by Namco.

Adventure on atari 2600 on the hardest setting. The white dragon will just fly through a wall and eat you.

It's hard on Hard. Remember, you got limited Mk29 ammo, and he can spot you fairly easily. Add to that his 'stamina restore' move, and well, you should do the 'End dies of old age' cheat...

I like it too. I used to have it for Playstation, but I don´t think it´s a hard game.

Splinter Cell Pandora Tommorow SUCKS. I can't do it, even though I was good at the original.

ANY Armored Core game. They're all great games, but they all have REALLY cheap bosses. Yeah, it makes it a challenge... but there's challenge, and then there's "I tried 50 times and still couldn't last 50 seconds".
