ICO. There's that one part with the piston that's just incredibly hard, I can't get up to the ledge no matter what I try. I just gave up playing it alltogether it was so hard.
Nah, I'm actually just kidding, anyone can finish that game without help. For me, I more often stop playing a game because of my extremely short attention span rather than anything overly frustrating, but for me the one wall I can remember is Fire Leo in Viewtiful Joe. To this day, I haven't gotten past him on Adults difficulty. I got so frustrated I restarted the whole game on Kids difficulty and danced through the game without using a single continue, much to my horrified surprise. The gap between Kids and Adults was even more severe than I expected. I've had my share of problems with each boss in Viewtiful Joe. I first thought the first helicopter simply can't be done, but going back against it a few levels later it proved to be a breeze. But Fire Leo is just impossible for me. If I were to start from the Leo fight when I select continue, I might eventually be able to defeat him, but having to go through harder versions of the game's previous bosses (excluding Alastor) first every time proved too much of an obstacle for my patience. Four boss marathon? Fine, did that. Difficult boss? Fine. Multiple, multiple health bars? Fine. Extreme rise in boss difficulty towards the end of the battle? Fine. All these combined? No, I'm simply not good or lucky enough, nor am I patient enough to get good enough. If I could restart from the start of the Leo match every time, I just might be able to get good enough, but from the very beginning? Aaargh. It was a hilarious thought though that there's two more difficulties after Adults  I'm not saying the game is unfair though, I simply don't have the patience. VJ, along with Gradius V, Super Monkey Ball and a few others are some of the few games that play hard but fair. When you lose, you know exactly why, and you have no one else to blame but yourself. And my lack of tenacity in this case~ Jam it back in, in the dark.  |
