I Wanna Be The Guy (the hardest video game ever?)
 

I'm reminded of that Japanese one that Adam posted a while ago. Anyway, check this out:

It's ridiculous, and downloadable.

is it PC only, or is it meant to be played on a certain system's emulators?

In-window jobby - no mames or faff.

Also, the demo is quite a small download (2 minutes or less on my connection). Give it a bash, I got bored after 15 minutes or so, but I don't have any patience for video games any more.

I dnt play video games on my computer. Ever. Oh well. I figured it was a hacked NES rom or something.

this is the most unfair game ever

Haha thanks for this, looks brilliant.

The hardest game ever is some space shooting game for the PC. Can't remember the name of it, but Next Generation Magazine (remember them?!) couldn't get past the first level and actually flew to the creators' offices to see if ANYONE there could get past the first level, and only one person could or something.

hahaha awesome.

I just played the demo version for a bit. Can't get past the first level. Way too hard for me. A can clock Space Invaders at the arcade though.

The Atari 7800 version of Impossible Mission is both the hardest and most unfair game - it's literally impossible to complete.

Yes it is. Because of a bug in the programming, there is no way to beat it.

So, it's literally an impossible mission?

That's the ironic part. Yeah.

i coudln't get past the first screen. I've always fallen to the spiked hole and got killed. frustrating.

Slavo - go up, down's a red herring.

where up? Up where it all starts? it's impossible to jump up that high.


(looking at this couple of sentences without the proper context, they seem very metaphysical)

Press jump twice - you can double-jump.

yeah, but when i try that the spikes on the level above me just kill me immediately. Why doesn't this fucker have a Smart Bomb?

Right - When you first drop into the first screen, press jump twice to get up to the screen above. Then avoid some apples, and do some jumping on some clouds and avoid some spikes and shit.

I coudn't get past the third apple. That game is frustrating
(but the possibility to commit suicide by pressing "q" rules)

I'm on the second boss and I officially hate this game.

Second Boss?! I can't even get to the first save point.
It takes me about half an hour to get past the apples, and on the next screen I try and jump across a cloud but it falls onto those spikes.

i just went through over 200 lives in 40 minutes. i got to level 3.

I prefer owata over this. ascii guile and pedobear? I'm in!

hahaha suicide buttons are way underrated in general

and now it's a flash game. Enjoy!

i completed Super Ghouls and Ghosts which is on pretty much every list of the hardest games ever

anybody played asshole-mario without throwing the tv outta the window?

Did I mention that I've completed this game 3 times now? Only on the 'easy' setting, but still.

seriuosly impressive

I've completed all the Ghouls and Ghosts except for the PSP one. Didn't find Super to be as difficult as the NES one.

Hardest game ever is Lumines... Hardest to put down, that is!
