it's not just the hardness of those games, more the nastiness. i like G'n'G to no end, but hate r0ckman, why? rockman had this typical nasty scenes, where you killed one of those "most difficult to kill"-placed enemies, then you accidental moved back just one pixel on the screen and this muthafugglin' arsehole is there waiting for you again!! no thanx!!

Yeah, Ultimate Ghosts n' Goblins pisses me off to NO end... I HATE that series. I can stand Megaman simply because the aesthetics and music are better.

MegaMan is awesome, but I think maybe they went a little overboard with the sequels. 30 sequels was probably way past where they should have drawn the line.

Still, I have a lot of fun playing those games and sometimes me and a friend will sit down and not get up until we've conquered one of the ones we haven't beaten yet.

Ya, I love the megaman series. I've only beaten part 2 though, which happens to be my favorite.

Megaman games on NES, hard????? Damn, what other games are you guys comparing this to? Now GnG the first ever is ridiculously hard. My favorites are Megaman 2 on NES and also Megaman X-1 on SNES, great music and fun to play.

Yeah, GnG is ridiculously hard, but very addicting. What is crappy about that game is that though there is a lot of skill involved in that game, there is an equal amount of luck that is needed to make it through. For example, you HAVE to get the shield (or the crucifix, which I've never seen) to beat the final boss. If you beat the boss with any other weapon than the shield you get put back to the start of the previous level.  #-o Plus you have to beat the game not once, but TWICE!!!  =; hehe

I have not beat the game yet. I haven't even gotten through the first run through before you get sent back to level one.  ](*,)

Sinistar was a stupidly hard game as well, but again addicting as all heck. I used to get scared when the Sinistar would utter his threats to me and my little mining ship.  8-[ Here's a link with all of Sinistar's lovely scare tactics. I still get chills hearing them. heh http://onastick.net/drew/sinistar/

But as for a game I truly hate? That would have to be Winter Games for the NES (though it was out for the Commodore 64 and other systems). What a waste of money, time and space that game is. The only event worth any while is the speed skating. The ski jumping was on to something good, but fell flat on its face. The bobsled event was mind bogglingly terrible. This game really isn't even worth checking out just to see how bad it is. But it managed to fool me in the store with pics from the back of the box.  #-o

Though I guess Winter Games isn't exactly "popular". lol

1. Burning Rangers.  It's the pinnacle of what I hate about first-gen 3D gaming.  Getting lost in camera angles, and not being able to do simple stuff like jumping on the f*cking ledge right above you.
...

wow, you impress me.  you were actually able to notice that you were getting lost in cam angles and hung up on simple stuff?  heck, i couldn't even tell what the heck i was even looking at on screen... :wink:

so, hows abouts some god of war games?  funk them to no end.  talk about hiding your lackluster, poorly-designed, anemic gameplay and mechanics behind a curtain of production values.  those games are 95% canned animation sequences, 5% smack the square button over and over.  yawn yawn yawn.  considering the sheer number of cats who get off on these games, sometimes i think that i'm "not normal" (which i guess i'm really not, but come on...).

What pissed me off even more was how enemies would repeat just after scrolling a pixel of the screen. The stage layouts didn't help this either, nor did the lack of being able to shoot up (c'mon even Metroid had this before Mega Man).

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

At least Megaman's bullets reach the end of the screen. :wink:

Although that player is really good, it looks like some kind of emulation tricks were used, since they had the holy cross weapon on the first loop.

My girlfriend nearly completed the first loop, just to impress me (she doesn't play these types of games).
