Top 10 Difficult Games
In the old days of gaming, the majority of games on the market were extremely difficult, and led to countless hours of play even in the face of their brevity. However, there are still some games out there that will give even the most hardcore gamer a brain hemorrhage, so here’s a look at some of the most difficult games ever committed to consoles.

 

Ghosts N' Goblins
Few games throw an incredibly different series of levels at you AND THEN force you to do it all over again after getting to the final boss, but Ghosts and Goblins is a cruel, cruel beast.
Contra 4
The latest Contra (and first proper entry to the series in well over a decade) brings the series back in hair-pullingly difficult form.
Battletoads
  • Battletoads

Quite arguably the toughest NES game of all time, I’ve never met anyone capable of completing the Snake Pit.
