HotCupOfJoe: I played this game for so long, got stuck at multi... | Channel 3

Nioh

@just5moremins • 86d

Just absurdly difficult. I don't understand the point. It's a dying simulator.

Elden Ring

@aerialapostle • 126d

This is at least the most difficult game I have completed

Geometry Dash

@quinnvortex • 142d

Y'all already know I hate this game with a passion

Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy

@lightwork • 157d

I'm salty.

Geometry Dash

@themadbombchu • 161d

This terrible creation that I can’t actually stop playing.

MapleStory

@veranza • 162d

And I rage quit when I couldn't figure out the control system. So I played an hour to rage quit on too difficult controls

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

@suromike • 166d

Think this was the version I had as a kid, never got past beating up chickens in the grass

Ori and the Blind Forest

@friz • 180d

I got used to it but it was a bloodbath at first.

Bloodborne

@joyboy3d2k • 210d

I thought that after beating Elden Ring (with a LOT of help) I would be fine with Bloodborne. I was not. I did beat it and it was incredible. But incredibly hard as well.

Elden Ring

@raddad • 216d

I'm not one for souls like but I wanted to try it. Haven't beaten it

Bloodborne

@youngloganyoung • 243d

Bloodborne is a great game but it's also very difficult since it is a FromSoftware game. Bloodborne is a faster paced souls game and that makes it very challenging. I've still haven't even beaten Orph...more

Donkey Kong 64

@damnravi • 247d

Maybe I would be able to beat it now, but this was the hardest game ever as a kid!

The Lion King

@jackalope • 309d

Seriously, Why is this so hard for a kids game?

PaRappa the Rapper

@elblanconino • 323d

I'm guessing it was because I was young (maybe 10-11?) and uncoordinated.. yeah, we'll blame it on that :D

Battletoads

@dennis • 330d

I never got anywhere close to the end. There were two levels back to back that if...IF...I made it through the first then I was sure to die on the second because I was down to just one life.

The Lion King

@wiifu • 344d

This game right here would cause kids todays to nuke their systems

Metroid Fusion

@buster • 345d

Pretty hard boss fights

Cuphead

@ottozone • 345d

I've played Hades, Hollow Knight, Celeste, Getting Over It, The Lost Levels, etc. But Cuphead is on another level for me. I should probably put more time into it.

Elden Ring

@kalai21 • 438d

That shit is hard

Cuphead

@danioverhere • 445d

I sincerely don’t understand how this game is even fun to play.

Cuphead

@dadalorian • 446d

The reviews don’t lie. I’ve almost made it through the tutorial and it’s been 6 months.

Ecco the Dolphin

@uxorcist • 446d

Okay I'm gonna preface this with I was really young, the internet wasn't a thing yet, and guides and forums didn't exist so figuring out the puzzles and boss mechanics and everything on my own was ha...more

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

@jedijohann • 446d

I mean it took me over 30 years to beat it

Ninja Gaiden (2004)

@mulligan • 458d

Assuming you mean besides Battletoads... The first boss in this game was so rage-inducing.

Adventures of Dino Riki

@jaimecitoamor • 481d

So hard, literally took it back to the store.

League of Legends

@dorsalfin • 501d

I don’t think I’ll ever understand how to be good😂why you have to be so hard game😂

Zanac

@shartbus • 537d

For a game that came out in the 80s on 8-bit systems, the AI was well ahead of its time. The better you did, the harder the game got, and the patterns of the enemies were super unpredictable.

Elden Ring

@jpegmario • 545d

Gotta be Elden Ring. I had no idea what i was doing haha.

The Lion King

@nasko0406 • 573d

God I still have nightmares about this game.

The Lion King

@seenitcoveredit • 576d

Never again.

Bloodborne

@malachi • 583d

I can get to the first boss, can never beat it. I just cant do souls games.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

@zonkedwheat9999 • 596d

Still stuck on bowser jr so I quit playing this for a while and switched to @mariorabbidssparksofhope.

Ghosts 'n Goblins

@roorl • 597d

Recently I would say Demon Souls (PS3)

Elden Ring

@madharryrackham • 601d

Barely scratched the surface of this game and I'm pretty sure I never will get very far... Wild to me that people enjoy it

Super Mario Odyssey

@bammonty • 633d

Listen this is one of the first games that would take a decent amount of time to do and I kinda raged a lot. Maybe also looked up some things

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

@justsayingsoican • 681d

Very time consuming

Super Meat Boy

@daddymang • 708d

Had to pass the controller to my best friend for the escape after the final boss and I'm still deeply ashamed 😭. Honorable mention to Cuphead, but we actually beat that one together in co-op! He di...more

Toy Story

@froggy • 718d

100% agree with @dosandres. This and Aladdin were countless hours wasted without getting close to the end.

Ys: The Oath in Felghana

@5wolfman5 • 730d

Easily one of the HARDEST video games I have ever played. Every boss in this game will punish you as will the SIMPLEST of its generic enemies.

Metroid Prime

@mariomaestro • 732d

Not exactly a deep cut like most of the other answers here, but I can only go by the games I've played.

Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts

@whitethunder • 742d

This needs no explaining

Cuphead

@mistermez • 743d

Dark Souls II

@madnessdahlia • 752d

Super Mario Bros.

@travg • 754d

Granted I was 6 years old...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@darthsmeagol • 757d

The dam level... Need I say more?! Even when I was lucky enough to get past it, I never made it much further!

Dark Souls III

@thebrute07 • 760d

Never did finish it

Cuphead

@legodad • 764d

Ninja Gaiden

@alecshepard27 • 767d

My dad said if I beat this he’d get me a ps5. Still no PS5.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@geodad • 770d

Never beat it... I've gotta go back!

Monster Hunter 4

@enderphoenix • 771d

This game didn't have all the fancy quality of life changes World and Rise did. It was tough as nails and if you carted, well it was your own fault. Not to mention playing it on a New 3DS, using the n...more

Fortnite

@qmoran87 • 771d

The Lion King

@codyb • 773d

I remember renting this as a kid and not being able to get past the 2nd level. Whole weekend of trying, never rented it again.

StarCraft II

@bayesic • 777d

It's a game that no matter how good you are, there's always someone who's infinitely better than you are

Super Mario Bros. 2

@eliza • 778d

I don't care if you laugh at me. It was hard and I hated it and I quit and I never went back. Go to hell. I stuck with Mega Man and freaking Echo the Dolphin.

Quattro Adventure

@james • 779d

Treasure Island Dizzy was the most impossible game for an child. Codemasters is an appropriate name for the makers.

Dragon's Lair (1983)

@tootslaroo • 780d

I put so many quarters into this game and only could get past maybe the first or second screen. I would love to give this one another shot now that I'm older.

Battletoads

@rusty6713 • 780d

So many games in the past and now could be contenders. But this sticks out.

Elden Ring

@dosandres • 446d

Definitely had to switch this to Elden Ring. On NG+7 trying to get every single Grace Point along with all legendary ashes & talismans and getting owned big time.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

@cknbromein • 783d

I suck at stealth games it takes me 10x as long to complete an level cuz I am not quiet. If stealth is option you know I’m kicking in doors and putting guns in faces

Battletoads

@codydavis • 784d

For as much as we played this game growing up, we could never get past turbo tunnel! Those darn hover bikes, flying walls, and trying to jump over massive gaps but fall into the abyss. Finally beat it...more

Elden Ring

@thetrip70 • 790d

They say they wanted a more friendly souls game and they still managed to make it difficult for people who haven't played souls games. Still a really fun game.

Battletoads

@laughatbrian • 794d

Lots of great answers here. On Thanksgiving one year, I beat Battletoads WITHOUT Game Genie after months and months and months of trying. I played this game all day everyday until I finally mastered i...more

Cuphead

@mikebudney • 795d

Buh-buh-but...it looks like cartoons!

Cuphead

@rymaster95 • 796d

Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts

@nanner • 796d

GoldenEye

@notjosh • 799d

Having an older brother made this unpossible to play

The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants

@davidhughes • 799d

Was it just me?? This was impossible from the jump off. Followed closely by the first TMNT game on the NES.

Battletoads

@crackityjones • 799d

Battletoads on the SNES. There are just too many obstacles to memorize. It was rage-inducing.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@teets • 802d

Yea, you know it's true. The only game I have tried tirelessly to beat and just can't do it. I have yet to beat Cuphead as well, but haven't put nearly the years of effort into that.

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout

@gongshowdad • 802d

I hate that I love this game

The Lion King

@barberface • 802d

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Heroes of the Lance

@mcitaly • 803d

Dark Souls II

@alden • 805d

The life nerf every time you die was just brutal.

Dark Souls

@gargada • 805d

The first souls game I played. I almost returned it, because it was so hard. But I stuck with it, and glad I did. Difficult but so satisfying.

Aladdin (SNES)

@reverendrekt • 806d

Flying carpet lava level. That is all.

Elden Ring

@themarkening • 806d

I don't think this surprises anyone - but while I did have a lot of fun with this game, I don't think I've ever gripped my controller harder in my entire life!

Battletoads

@hrlwesty • 807d

It was fun and funny, and then you get completely stuck on a different type of level (riding speederbikes) and you have no other option but to quit.

Elden Ring

@theharryeagle • 807d

Easy Answer. I've never played any of the other Souls games, so this one will have to do. Challenging but tons of fun!.

Dark Souls III

@randiss • 808d

first ever soulsbourne game i ever played and hated my life every minute i played lol

Dark Souls III

@seth • 808d

This was my first Souls game and it was brutal learning what to and what not to do in a Souls game.

Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts

@sdnassiff • 808d

This could be because I played it as a kid, but I never made it passed the first stage, and you have to beat the whole game without dying and no saves. super fun though!

Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne

@caldak • 808d

This game's hard mode gave me depression with a capital L I constantly took. There are gimmicky bosses on gimmicky bosses, with moves like Dragon Eye on an ambush encounter able to wipe out your entir...more

Final Fantasy X

@jstf9000 • 808d

I played this game for so long, got stuck at multiple spots, couldn’t figure out f’ing Blitzball to save my life, died and died over and over, but finally beat the game after buying the strategy g...more

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@dan • 808d

So there are games that are hard for the sake of a challenge and games that are impossible because the developers are just rude. This is the latter. The is generational trauma in one level. Give me Co...more

Ninja Gaiden

@xbitgaming • 808d

Still haven't beaten it. And when people do. It's like magic to me.

Super Meat Boy

@joob • 808d

The early levels aren’t bad but the mid-game levels are brutal. I don’t think I’ll make it to the end game. Very very precise platforming. It is fun though.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@mase • 808d

This game was so hard. If you want to get frustrated, play the water level on that one.

Ninja Gaiden II (2008)

@buddhastank • 808d

Screw this game.

Love Nikki Dress Up Queen

@joel • 808d

Battletoads & Double Dragon

@russdawg87 • 808d

I played a lot of this game. The game plays fine, but I'll be darned if some of it wasn't impossible. I never actually made it to a part with the Double Dragons. I only ever played as Battletoads.

Cuphead

@badintel • 808d

I don't think I'll ever finish this 😂

Terraria

@beetlethegod • 808d

If I had to choose one I have beaten then The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past rings to mind, but Terraria is just insane level. Basically grind for weapons, armor, etc. before you fight a boss, th...more

Ghosts 'n Goblins

@bitzdad • 808d

I almost went with Battletoads here, but Ghosts 'n Goblins is relentless and doesn't even try to ease you in to the gameplay. I'd bet most kids gave up before they ever reached the end of the first l...more

Fortnite

@ohtwotwo • 809d

Not Fortnite itself because I absolutely love Fortnite ... but the death run's, parkour maps, and so many of the custom maps/modes/puzzles humbled me REAL quick. Complete confidence killer at times & ...more

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

@bullboski • 809d

Still have nightmares about the damn dam level.

Caveman Games (Ugh-lympics)

@blockmamba • 809d

Honestly, there haven’t been too many games that have been too difficult. I’m going to go with this game because this game is an enormous amount of problems back in the day. Couldn’t figure out ...more

Elden Ring

@rey • 809d

Sometimes getting to the boss was harder than the actual boss. Almost every fight required me to completely focus in to complete.
