I've just been playing it it's pretty damn hard. Anyway I have to go and buy a new controller.
Is there even a doubt? It's IWBTG, or I Wanna Be The Guy, as it stands for.
I tried to play it through once. I spent a whole year, and didn't get to the end. I did however, die over 5 thousand times. FIVE. THOUSAND.
Yes, it's that hard. I mean, everything kills you. Even apples (which sometimes have the habit of falling UPWARDS). It's just ungodly difficult. Super Meat Boy is a walk in the park in comparison (I only died 700 times playing that game).
Here's a video (this guy must be God, by the way)
Edit: Take a look at the 4:30 mark. See those tetris blocks? You've gotta memorize where they land to survive. And just getting to the tetris blocks took me at least 10-20 tries.

I was gonna say Brutal Legend- a game that, unless you enter anything except the Mint 500 in the turn of the century Drag-u-la- just hates gamers.
That is, until I watched some of these I Wanna be the Guy videos; I concede defeat, and wholeheartedly change my vote.

Marathon 2: Durandal on the hardest difficulty will beat you down until the final battle. At that point just stop playing. It's impossible.
The Adventures of Batman and Robin (Genesis)- Only four levels but boy were they long. I tried playing this game legit, but often failed to get past the second stage without an action replay.
Chulip (PS2) - Proof that not every hard game has to have very intense battles or near invincible bosses to beat. This obscure bizarre Japanese kissing game (yes I said kissing game) had some of the toughest most obscure puzzles you will ever encounter. Think you could not be stumped? For example who would have guessed that to win over an owner at a bath house that you had to take a bath at night in a very specific order (i.e. remove clothes, wash hands, take bath, wipe feet on mat, and about five or six other things I had to do) with no slip ups in order to win him over? Or how about learning that in order to win over an irate person sitting on a bench that you had to walk past him around fifty times? What? No hints or clues? No problem in figuring that one out. Oh and just in case you worried that there were no cheap deaths aplenty in this game, then you need not worry. You will die often when you usually fuck up a puzzle or just run into some one who is angry (90% of the time) and they retaliate by flat out clobbering you to death. Yeah!!
Please Note: Of course I know that there was a FAQ included with Chulip that pretty much solved most of the tougher puzzles , but I assume most people were not complete pussies and cracked it open on day one since it also spoiled much of the game's fun when you were not exactly pulling your hair out in total frustration.

No offense meant, sorry.Void(null) said:
And... um... this post utterly baffles me. I'm positive you're serious, but now I feel a bit godly for doing the entire game in two days. Huh. (Incidentally, I got Super Meat Boy a week ago, I'm still trapped in the damn Salt Factory.)
I wanna be the guy, You only live once, and of course a proper answer thats not a tiny browser game, Demon's Souls. I think i broke the death-per-hour world record on that nightmare.
The hardest games I've seriously played are Demon's Souls and Ninja Gaiden. The hardest game overall?
Super Mario Forever?
Super Mario Forever?
liieess? me? no no no. it was just some simple embellishment, right? it's all true, the game is player vrs player, multiple people can log on (even if that means they both lose >.>), and if 2+ people are playing, they lose. where did i lie?StarStruckStrumpets said:
That's how hard it is.leet_x1337 said:
OT: Real quick, this isn't a second time, I've lost count of the amount of times. Granted, there hasn't been one in a while that I've seen. Anyway, gonna also have to say IWBTG. I know it's mostly artificial difficulty, it hates you with a passion in the meanest way possible, but that's why it's hilarious.
