GameTrailers' list of most difficult games
As Bionic Commando Rearmed's release reminded us today: Many games are just difficult by design. Gametrailers apparently had some prescience about our feelings on the subject and yesterday released a video featuring its list of most difficult games. The video is packed with some of the most controller destroying titles in memory. Pretty sure many of you out there can join us in a moment of silence for all the friendships ruined over playing Battletoads co-op during the hoverbike level. Check out the video after the break.
DS Daily: And then the DS accidentally fell right under my shoe.
With Contra 4 about to give us a heart attack, and Ninja Gaiden also on the way to make us doubt our ability to do things, we thought we'd ask you about the difficulty of currently-available DS games. There are some brutally hard games out there, and we're sure you've run into one of them. Some are difficult for not-so-great reasons, like control issues, but some are just hard.What's the most difficult game you've played on the DS? And did you enjoy it? Bonus points if the game isn't Trauma Center.
DS Fanboy travels Around the Interweb to whine about hard games
Siliconera has started doing these great roundtables called "From Around the Interweb" in which various game writers opine on a topic. The last one was about the DS Style series-- check it out for some interesting discussion on non-games!This week, Spencer was kind enough to invite me along for a discussion of hard games. This week's panel included Spencer, RawMeatCowboy from GoNintendo, CheapyD from CheapAssGamer, PSP Fanboy's Andrew Yoon (who has made mysterious appearances here!), and, for some reason, me! We were all able to reach a consensus on the divisive issue of whether or not hard games were, in fact, hard. I had a great time and I was honored to be in such illustrious company!
