Difficult Games

Sometimes i have nightmares with jackal snipers.
Those bastards never miss a shot.

Shadow of the Beast. Hardest game ever.

For those who like RTS, Warcraft 2 expansion Beyond the Dark Portal is also VERY difficult.
Especially on the orc campaign there are really hard levels.

Good God DooM has inspired one HELL of a lot of difficult and impressive maps over the years! Happy birthday DooM! Quarter of a century of mapping bliss!

This deserves its own thread, but since so many doom maps are terrifyingly difficult on "Ultra Violence" (Nevermind Nightmare skill level) I thought I'd just post this here!

Here is one such example from the 100 most memorable maps of the past 25 years. Basically, it's Moria after all the Balrogs have been woken and wreaked havoc over the place:



Scroll down to entry # 33.

"Could Gandalf have held off 24 Balrogs without a BFG? Probably not, and neither can you, so you’ll have to start running. This map has you taking the long way around its grand central chamber, navigating platforms over lava and trying to clear out the opposition ahead of you as fast as you can to make it to the arsenal at the end of the map before you’re overtaken by your pursuers."

DooM, such a magnificent game then and now; put together by the most talented people in the gaming industry, and inspiring the most talented designers around the world to continue evolving the game to this day. So--frickin'--awesome!
