Top 10 Hardest Video Game Levels of All-Time

From the PlanetXbox360.com feature list:

"Today is leap day, an event that only happens once every four years. It gives the masses a special opportunity to enjoy one more day of life for the year. Lets be honest, though. Do we ever take full advantage of the day or is it treated like any other day? Unfortunately, as gamers we need as many extra days as we can get. We’ve seen hours turn into days while trying to beat just one level of a game, and all of the character deaths act as wasted time in the pursuit of beating that one stage. Below are a list of games and levels in which we’ve all wasted our days on and could be considered as some of the most painful video game levels ever created."

WOW F that airplane level, actually both of em...

dirthurts4862d ago

I made it through second attempt...did I miss something?

JaredH4862d ago

Did you beat it on veteran? It took me like 10 to 20 attempts I'm guessing and that's just because of the time limit being so little. I definitely don't think it's the hardest level of all time though.

miguelcoma4861d ago

Call of Duty 1 (or Classic), Pavlov's House ON VETERAN
Hardest level ever.
Got nightmares after that.

jthamind4862d ago

not a bad list, but it needs more old school Ninja Gaiden and some Battletoads.

GillHarrison4862d ago

It had Battletoads. I do agree with Ninja Gaiden though.

jthamind4862d ago

guess i need to get my eyes checked. lol.

vortis4861d ago

To be fair, that list is "light"...realistica lly every NES and 2600 game would pretty much fill up the list as the hardest levels of all time. I don't think I ever conquered one NES game...they were just too darn hard.

I know, I know, fail me.

ASTAROTH4861d ago

I just finished JAK 2 on the collection. . . play it and tell me if its dammn hard!! It has some of the hardest levels on any platformer...

I_am_Batman4862d ago

I was really good at Contra back in the day. I've played it so much that I couldn't understand why everybody else was complaining about it's difficulty.

One of the hardest video games I've played was Eternal Champions (fighting game) on the Genesis/Mega Drive. I couldn't beat the Eternal Champion with any fighter except Trident.

Skate-AK4862d ago

I used to love that game! I was only around 5-6 last time I played it though.

Abdou234862d ago

My toughest fight ever is Solidus Snake,MGS 2 final boss battle.

dirthurts4862d ago

The hardest game I ever played, Far Cry. The whole thing! (pc version, the console version is completely different).
I bet I died 200 times trying to beat that game!

pr0digyZA4862d ago

No shame, the last sort of section after you jump off that high waterfall was insane (rockets everywhere).

Will be interesting to see what sort of numbers GP users draw in come tomorrow. It is believed that this is one many have been waiting for.

Darth,

That is not accurate; this game is old, and most people who want it have already bought it. You might get a small number of subs, but we will mostly see a good influx of players(not new subs) from people with Game Pass who will try it, which is what happened with D4.

CoD: BO 6 will be the test for actual sub numbers.

darthv72333d ago

That's fair... seeing as many have been saying they want CoD in GP. My comment was more of , now that its here... what can it do. Im sure there will be other titles in the franchise that will either entice or turn off different users.

Bathyj333d ago

No one's buying a console and signing up for a monthly bill just to get this game to avoid buying it. That's ridiculous. Besides everyone bagged the crap out of this on release for the 4 hour campaign.

andy85334d ago

Sweet. Never got round to it on release. I'll give the campaign a go

chicken_in_the_corn333d ago

Severly underrated game. Big improvement over 2.

Why MW 2019 is still the best looking Call of Duty to date

MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.

MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.

That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.

I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
