    Is Ninja Gaiden the most difficult game ever?...

    Cause it definently ranks way up there on my list. I'm only on level 4, so the worst is still yet to come. An amazing game, but brutally tough.

    I have to get back to playing it this weekend. I'm either on level 5 or level 6. If I don't beat that and SC:PT before NCAA comes out, I may never give them enough playing time to do so.

          NG's difficulty is closer to what the norm was back in the day.

                Is Ninja Gaiden worth buying at 20 percent off? The Toys R Us near me is going out of business and every thing is on sell and the prices are dropping like flies. But I wanted to know if it is as good as the back of the box.

                      good point. some of the NES/SNES generation games were ridiculous. no save points(at least for NES) made it hard enough, but some had a finite number of continues which made it insane. The Ninja Turtles game on NES comes to mind. sometimes they weren't really as hard as it seemed, but you needed to sit down for hours to get through it in one sitting. there was one game that is widely accepted as the hardest ever(at least popular game), it was for NES or SNES, i don't exactly remember what it was, but it had to do with zombies and stuff, maybe a castlevainia, ninja gaiden, ghoul's and ghost's or something.

                      as for out of the box next generation games, i haven't played one harder than Ninja Gaiden. at least not on standard difficultly level(see the other thread on beating halo on the hardest setting!). the closest i can think of is resident evil for playstation. took me forever to beat that game, the rationing of the saves made it tough(that and the game is just plain hard even if you could save at anytime). i'm sure i am forgetting a game or something, but i don't remember playing a recent game harder than Ninja Gaiden.

                            Anyone remember Battletoads for NES? That game was the bane of my existence as a kid. Horrendously hard. Also, to the poster above, Super Ghouls and Ghosts in generally considered the hardest videogame ever. It came out for the Gameboy advance not too long ago. I remember that being hard as well, but not as hard for me as Battletoads.
                            I drive a 2005 Toyota Prius Gas/Electric Hybrid. My last tank was 53.6 miles/gallon. Gas prices fear me!

                            Oversimplification is the escape of men who want to avoid the duty demanded by true understanding.
