HAY GUYS

1.) Double Dragon III - This game is tough as a swallowing a box of nails. I beat the first game and had a co-op win with the sequel, but I don't think I've ever met someone who's beaten Double Dragon III. Everyone I know agrees that its way harder than it needs to be and at my best I could get to Egypt, but never to the final boss.

BAM. My story, right there. I had this game from age 9 to age 12 on the NES, and played it constantly with my best friend. The furthest we ever got was Italy, and we were so excited about it we got our ass kicked like some pieces of shit. And the Goddamn spin kick only comes out like half the time. Swallowing a box of nails indeed, it's bullshit.

Anyway, here's a few I've been dealing with lately...

1) UNiSON JP (PS2) - This is a music game for the hardcore. The basic premise is simple--you are a girl in a 3-girl dancing/singing group, and you must learn a simple choreography and "perform" it on stage using the two analog sticks. The problem? No indicators whatsoever. Yes, you have to remember the choreography, and it gets real hard, real fast. My rote memory isn't that great, so this is like trying to win a fight against Randy Couture for me. I have yet to beat the easy mode (which is the first girl), and there are two other girls that represent medium and hard. Why do I keep playing? The music is a collection of awesome Jpop disco remixes. Pretty funny story too.

2) Marble Blast Ultra (360) - Egh, just thinking about this bothers me and I have to go get a drink. It starts out stupidly easy, but the final few levels... I don't know, I just can't do it. I still want to try every now and then cause I just like rolling.

3) Panzer Dragoon Orta (SMEXBOX) - Every month or so, I start a new game of this, and each time I get really far and then I just get frustrated with it. It's not that hard, I just suck ass at it. I'll beat it someday though, I swear!

4) Etrian Oddysey (DS) - I'll never beat this.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Er, whoops. All those consoles are the same anyway.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

My parents bought for me when I was 8 years old, and it was my freakin' Everest until I was 14, when I finally beat it. I still played it a lot cause it was very fun.

I had that game too, and Castlevania II and Bayou Billy and like, every other utterly frustrating game ever made on the NES. Goddamn, you'd think I did it on purpose. I did beat Batman eventually, but like you it took me years. The Batman game by Sunsoft for the Gameboy is a lot more forgiving, and also extremely awesome. I recommend it!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
