So what IS the most frustrating video game in the history of video games?

[alareau]

Ninja Gaiden 1 (nes), Battletoads (nes), Mega Man 1 (but not 2 or 3, they were jokes)

 

[sao123]

Sim City4

There were a lot of simply crappy NES games that I am passing over since they are just retarded and have poor controls/objectives, but of games I like, Vagrant Story is the hardest.

 

[Shadowknight]

The Batman the Movie game that came out in 1989. Gods, I hated that thing.

 

[tw1164]

Master Blaster (NES) Its impossible to beat, or maybe A Boy and His Blob (NES)

What was the name of the game where you were either a King Kong type monster or Godzilla type monster (was 2 player) and you just ran around destroying a city until it had enough damage, then you moved onto the next level. Basically you mapped around the entire US destroying major cities. I think it was either a Nintendo or SNES game, but it was also an arcade game.

I never did finish that one!

Edit: It just came to me I think. It was called Rampage!

I think you're thinking of the game: Rampage.
edit: Gah you remembered first.

^^ Rampage?

Yep. Rampage.

I could never beat the original Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles...

Rampage was a TON of fun.

Me neither

Space Ace for Amiga was pretty frustrating.

Mate says Talespin for Nintendo, never played that game much myself.

Ninja Gaiden (I,II, III and the X-box one) is a very close second.

QFT...Ninja Gaiden drove me nuts, at least I wasn't the only one who was annoyed at it.

 

[Atomicus]

Eek the Cat for SNES

 

[Stuxnet]

Top Gun for NES was a bitch. Specifically, landing.

 

[Leper Messiah]

Tetris. I never beat that game.

I owned this arcade game until the sound card went bad. My highest level was either 14 or 15. It starts getting really crazy around there...

[NuclearNed]

Raid on Bungeling Bay

 

[Night Blade]

Beat Ghouls & Ghosts, not sure if I ever beat Super G&G, the hardest game I recall was the original Robocop arcade game, stupid platform game with limited controls.

 

[meltdown75]

well, for me it was probably TW 2005 most recently. see the "broken controller" thread in Software & Games...

but, quite a few games have been known to tick me off.

 

[Slammy1]

Day of the Tentacle. I don't think anyone actually finished that game without downloading the walk through (and they were a lot harder to find back then). Of course! Put the spaghetti on the bowling ball and dress it up to look like a human female, it's just that easy.

Yup. I finally gave up on my TW 2004. Got tired of all the cheap ****** by the computer. I destroyed a control and melted the DVD so I wouldn't be tempted again.

 

[Lord Zado]

I've beaten all the NES Ninja Gaidens, Battletoads and megamans. Super Ghouls and Ghosts I never have beaten.

Blaster Master was the toughest for me.

edit: Thanks for the correction troytime. The name is actually Blaster Master. It's been almost 15 years and I still call it by the wrong name.

 

[Shadowknight]

Master Blaster: No save function. Grrr.
