Your "Unbeatable" Games You Own

Best thing to do is to find a friend with the game, do some missions together in the Gathering hall so you can gain materials so its easier to beat missions and build new gear.SamuelT said:
The key to winning missions in Monster Hunter is always having a friend to help you out.
There are very few games I consider "unbeatable", excluding the obvious answer of the Dungeon Crawler Nethack (there is no "end" to nethack, merely a point where you get slightly better and advance slightly further than before). However, with that said, I have no motivation to finally complete Zelda 2 - The Adventure of Link; despite having a save file just before the final dungeon for, at the very least, a couple of years (on the Gamecube version included in Zelda Collector's Edition). Why? No legitimate reason. I'm just too goddamn lazy.
Sorry if this is a technicality but I recently learned that Devil May Cry is MURDEROUS on hard mode. Normally I might not care, but they flat out tell you to play it when you finish normal mode.
Sad to hear that. I'd be more sad to hear that if i wasn't only 6 quests away from completing every quest in the game (All G-rank quests which i'd been doing by myself) when my PSP "broke mysteriously" after my brother played on it. sigh, and i was solo-ing the game for a reason, because barely any of my friends have a PSP, and they aren't exactly going to lend me it anytime soon.SamuelT said:
another game i've not completed. Resident Evil: Code Veronica, because i did the "last boss" (which he only thought was because he couldn't beat it) in the Helicopter, then found out i was in a new subzero lab! "great!" i thought," even more awesome fun resident evil times for me
(i'm a big fan)" and so i ran around for about an hour playing the game. Then i went to bed. and i just haven't played on it since. I'm not even all that tempted though if i'm honest, maybe when i'm done with all these other new games i've bought with it and since then.Oh, Silent Hill 2 directors cut too! not completed that. Did the main story and got what i believe it be a good ending (wasn't happy but it explained a lot more of James' position and life), and then went to play the extra story. You know, where you play as the girl who looks just like James' wife but with red ends on her hair. Yeah. I don't know what was different, but her story just...sucked. i don't know why, but it was so boring and nothing like playing Silent Hill. Just got no will to finish it.
For a final game (also 'Horror' oddly enough), Ju-On: The Grudge (self-proclaimed fright simulator). For all the crap it gets, i believe it wasn't a bad fright simulator. I played through the first level and had to take a 30 minute break to recover (consider my experience with 'japanese horror' up til then had been resident evil and Silent Hill, which worked horror in a different way, this game was really good). I played the second level and got annoyed because i failed it about halfway through and had to start again, ruining all horror in the game up to that point.
By the time you've completed the 'four levels' you're not at all scared by the game anymore. occasionally you think "ah! this is quite a cool scenario, would be creepy if i hadn't gotten used to the style" (this is why it got such bad ratings, i guess people just forgot how much they got scared/creeped out at first experience, and that the game was only a fiver).
But to actually complete the game fully, you have to play through a fifth level, through this "legendary house" which supposedly features in the grudge movies. To unlock this though, you have to go through all the levels finding scraps of child-drawings to make a full picture of the house from the outside. I just couldn't face that. going through all the levels again, not being scared just to unlock this final level which probably wouldn't scare me after playing through all the other levels at least once more ¬_¬
anyway, i've had my rant now and want to look at the link entitled "Warren Spector's one step closer to a DUCKTALES game"... flipping love Ducktales
Mass Effect 2 ive beaten it in all the difficulties except Insanity and i know for a fact no matter how hard i try i wont be able to beat it.
Also Gran Turismo 4 no way ill ever get 100% on it i got it in GT2 but that took weeks and that game is half as big as GT4.

Wow. Can't believe I was ninja'd on that.Mr36 said:
Seriously though, that part fucking sucked. I hated having to play those and just gave up after getting to the end and dying >>
Amnesia: The Dark Descent, also known as "AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!". I can not progress further than the first monster. Neither I could in Penumbra. My life goal is to finish at least one game from Frictional Games.
Tetris.
Really: Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
Sail, sail, sail, DUNGEON, sail...
So fucking monotonous, and TF2 is calling me back...

Ninja Gaiden, the original NES game. It's more often boredom than difficulty that will stop me from finishing a game, but that one's final bosses just whooped me no matter how many times I tried it. Also, the Chapter 8 battle against Mydia in Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, which as far as I can figure has no solution.
Super Meat Boy, and that's only because I haven't actually started playing it yet.
My PC Gamepad has gone missing, and I refuse to do such bullshit-difficult platforming on a keyboard again.
Otherwise, I have conquered all of my previous gaming demons.

I didn't really see the problem with Dragon Age and Mass Effect (although I did get the landsmeet(?) in Dragon Age and just burnt out - I'd pretty much devoted my life to the game and then lost all will to play it anymore) but I can see how some might. However, RDR does seem incredibly overrated to me and I have absolutely no will to play it. There was a thread recently talking about mature games and so many people were lording this as one of best examples due to its story and characters. How?? It was just very dull with the main character running a few errands for some scumbags in order for them to do one tiny thing for him. That is not quid-pro-quo, that is bullshit. For that reason the plot moved at a crawl and the gameplay got fairly repetitive quite fast, so I've never gotten around to finishing it. I'm probably not even in the middle for all I know...Wolfram01 said:
Yeah, yeah I know. I didn't much like Oblivion either. Yet I loved Fallout 3.Hauntghost20 said:
I know I'm a minority but these games were just... bleh. DA:O, ok it was alright but the combat on PS3 was just so shitty and annoying. I also hated the item upgrading system (sell to vendor, come back later and buy back. WTF?).
Mass Effect is just boring. I bought it on Steam and played till I got my ship and went to a couple planets. Obviously not far in, and I hear it "gets better" but I'm with Yahtzee on that issue. As in, it shouldn't "get better" - it should be good at the start.
Finally with Red Dead Redemption, it was great until Mexico. Then just boring and repetitive.
Oblivion, well, mostly I disliked the combat.
Just my opinions, feel free to disagree and love the hell out of those games. I might give them another try sometime, but I'm busy with other more interesting games right now.
The hardest game I have is Halo 2 and I've beaten it on Legendary with Black Eye on, along with all the classic Castlevania games except Castlevania II, so I don't think I'll ever see a non-broken game I can't beat.
Pandora tomorrow was fucking tough. I played it when I was pretty young though, so it would probably be a lot easier for me now.Proverbial Jon said:
OT: Brutal Legend. Not due to difficulty, I just don't want to finish it. I hated it.
