Best difficulty description?

[IamQ]

Most games are just boring, only having easy, normal and hard, but some are really different.

I think in Wanted: Weapons of fate it has "Pussy" "Assassin" and "The killer"

I can't remember exactly, but Condemned 2 had something like
"Easy - You break their necks with one swing"
"Normal - You try to kill them, they do the same"
"Hard - Your blood will fly out from every corner of your body until the only thing you'll be standing in is blood, YOUR BLOOD!"

I may have exagerated it a bit, but something like that.

Do you know any special difficulty settings?

The BF:BC ones were quite good, they all showed a house. The easy setting showed a lovely, undamaged cottage. The medium showed a slightly damaged house, whereas the hard difficulty showed only foundations and rubble.
The description was something like "Super powered enemies will kill at your slightest mistake. Bring a cry towel, or two"
It wasn't actually that hard :/

The simple 'You will not survive' for Veteran from CoD WaW.

Wolfenstein has always been my favourite for difficulty names - I'm so glad they ressurected the classic difficulty titles with the new game.

I liked the names of the difficulty levels in Kane & Lynch. Aspirin (easy), codeine (medium) and morphine (hard). Nice touch.

It's the same in MWF.

I do know, but this one comes with a dead guy as the image. Which makes it... better?

Err, I wanna see one that says 'you retard' when hardest mode is chose

I'd like to see a game where the hardcore difficulty instantly kills you within five seconds of game start, with a zero-point achievement for attempting it more than twice.

Quake had some awesome ones.

Hurt Me Plenty and Nightmare come to mind.

 

[Inco]

I like Halo's ones.

Easy: Your foes cower and fail before your unstoppable onslaught, yet final victory will leave you wanting more.

Normal: Hordes of aliens vie to destroy you, but nerves of steel and a quick trigger finger give you a solid chance to prevail.

Heroic: Your enemies are as numerous as they are ferocious; their attacks are devastating. Survival is not guaranteed.

Legendary: You face opponents who have never known defeat, who laugh in alien tongues at your efforts to survive. This is suicide.

I liked the devil may cry difficulty "Dante must die". You know what your in for when the game has it out for the main character.

THe Max Payne self adjusting Difficult curve was my kind of a thing... if you just swayed your way though the levels, then all of a sudden .you would meet heavy resistance. But if you had a hard time getting along, the game would let you pick off the enemies very easyli, meaning you'd never get stuck or unable to move on in the story, no matter how hardcore or newbi you were

Yet another reason for me to get it.

 

[Custard_Angel]

Doom... No question...

1. I'm too young to die.
2. Hey, not too rough.
3. Hurt me plenty.
4. Ultra-Violence.
5. Nightmare!

Darkwatch on ps2.

Hard mode: be prepared to die. a lot.
