But i definitely agree with Defender and Ghosts and Goblins being in this thread... --- End quote --- I'm actually the one that showed this game to ultrageek. Rest assured we are not joking about how hard it was. I mean I literally died with 3 seconds. I had him try it and he died in 3 seconds at the same spot. It was hilarious. I remember it being some really crappy, early 80s platform type of game from one of those unknown companies. I would almost guarantee no one has played it. You started out on the bottom right if I recall, and something would kill you before you even figured out where to go. |

I remember there was a clone of Super Pang that had a Halloween theme that I didn't last more than 10 seconds in usually. |

I found one to add literally last night. I'm a massive fan of scrolling co-op fighters and last night thought I'd finally play Double Dragon II through. Yeah it's starts mild and is noticably harder than the first game, but play it further and it turns to hell! The awful 'left attack/right attack' control system aside, it soon gets ridiculously hard but in a very cheap way, not progressive. The enemy moves become very random, the collision detection is iffy, simultaeous blows always go in favour of the enemy and some dudes just seem unhittable. There was one particularly cheap bit where the sliding block wall just nailed me from left to right without any chance to move. This game is so cheap 1 life literally lasted 2.5 seconds! In short, it sucks balls. The control system is lame, the slowdown is worse than the first game, the difficulty is cheap and the levels are literally recycled from the first game, with slightly newer skins. Finally the reward for completing the game? A single-frame picture and 'the end' logo. This game is an abomination to the great original. I dare you to try it.... |

Ghosts n Goblins.. both the arcade one and the NES one. I had the NES one as a kid... I managed to beat the first 6 stages (with game genie giving me extra lives, of courses) only to be informed that I had to re-beat it and that it was much harder. I almost cried. |
