GameSpoon - Top 25 hardest games...



A reference of a reference...

Kotaku summed up an article that GameDaily posted about on what they think are the Top 25 Hardest Games of All Time!

I like Kotaku's quick, one-page summary, so I've decided to quote their list:

25. Ice Climber (NES)
24. Viewtiful Joe (GameCube, PS2)
23. MDK 2
22. Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link (NES)
21. Metal Slug series
20. Tetris
19. Gauntlet 1
18. Portal
17. Bionic Commando series
16. Guitar Hero series (On Expert)
15. Shinobi (PS2)
14. F-Zero GX (GameCube)
13. Mushihimesama Futari
12. Doom (On Nightmare Difficulty)
11. Call of Duty 4 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC)
10. Contra series
9. Defender
8. Devil May Cry 3 (PS2)
7. God of War series (PS2)
6. R-Type series
5. Ikaruga (GameCube, Xbox Live Arcade)
4. Mega Man 9 (Xbox Live Arcade, WiiWare, PlayStation Network)
3. Battletoads
2. Gouls N' Ghosts series
1. Ninja Gaiden series

This is a very interesting list. Honestly, I'm not sure why COD4 is so close to the top and why Contra isn't in the top position - can anyone honestly beat the game without The Code??

I am happy to see Battletoads on this list, because that game puts the "wtf" in "tough!" What do you think of the list?

Ninja Gaiden Series deserves the top spot.... Too much time spent just trying to beat the first one.
