Re: Hardest computer games you played.

Underwurlde was always hard, still is, tried it on the Xbox One Rare Replay collection and I still suck at it. Mainly because when you entered the next room, there can be an enemy there that sends you flying.

TBH, I hardly completed any of my C64/Spectrum games as a kid.

Re: Hardest computer games you played.

me neither the games where are very tough.

Still are now.

I have underwurlde for the spectrum.
Untouchables i found hard as well..


Also legend of zelda the 2nd quest lots of things are in different locations.

Games back then where quite short but very tough maybe its why they where hard cause they are short.

Bart vs. the space mutants. Couldn't get off the first level.

The Rick Dangerous games were very heavy going.
Ghost & Goblins, and Ghouls & Ghosts are also horrible during later levels.

If you got enough money (or know a cheat code) you could get a docking computer which did it all for you.
Still haven't found Raxxla though.

The two g and g games are indeed terribly difficult.

Never did finish either.

Supposedly there was a planet called **** due to the random planet generating coding having a glitch which wasn't noticed in time.

GOLDENEYE FOR THE N64.

COULD NOT COMPLETE IT ON THEE EASIEST DIFFICULTY BUT DID TRY IT ON HARDER DIFFICULTY OPTIONS Agent", "Secret Agent", or "00-Agent" difficulty settings DIDNT DO TOO BAD.
BUT IT GOT PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE AFTER A WHILE.

I would be surprised if anyone can come up with a harder game than Sqij! on the Spectrum.

I love the Megaman series on the NES but I think the first one was the best. Capcom really pushed the NES to it's limits for that game. All the sequels were pretty easy compared to the first one. The only way I was able to beat the one-eyed yellow monster was using Elecman's gun power and the pause cheat. I have all 4 that got a PAL release but sadly 5 and 6 were never released in Europe. I would hunt down NTSC versions if Nintendo didn't have lock out chips on the NES.


I always thought that Contra 3 and Smash TV on the SNES were really hard to beat. I prefer playing Contra 3 to Super Probotector because I didn't like how the men were replaced by robots. Why would robots care what happens to humanity. A while back I managed to get my hands on an American SNES so most of my SNES cartridges are American. Anyone who ever played an NTSC SNES or Mega Drive in the PAL region will know why I bought an American SNES. After playing Street Fighter 2 on the American SNES going back to the PAL version was a no go. The PAL version is a horrible, squished, slow mess of a game.

Re: Hardest computer games you played.

You could get the Megaman Collection on PS4 and Xbone, although i'm guessing you'd rather play them on the original hardware?

(It's on sale atm on the PS Store BTW)
