I finally hit Battletoads with a hammer and walked away. Battletoads has got to be the hardest goddamn console game ever made.

I came back for Gates of Discord. Now THAT expansion was HARD AS SHIT, but that's what made it GREAT, imo. Lots of people couldn't handle it. |

But prior to the emulator, I don't think I'd have ever gotten it memorized. That game was a hell of a lot of fun....until it wasn't anymore.

Was top 200 on the world leader board for Battlefield 1943 at one point, yeah lots of weed and spare time obviously.
Along the lines of the impossible to beat games like battletoads... There was an awesome GTA-esque game on PS1 named Driver, the final stage is virtually impossible and I tried to beat the 2-4 minute stage for at least a combined 40 hours total , did anyone ever manage to beat it? You were driving a limo with Clinton in it with hundreds of very angry cop cars punishing you at every moment if that jogs your memory. |

I did hate those key camps. The only thing that made them not so bad for some of us was that others had our login and would 2 box our account and get our keys. I was a cleric most of the time so people were always willing to help me out first which was nice.

I don't think I ever beat Driver myself, but I've heard many, many stories of broken controllers. I watched my brothers try to beat it over and over again.. not sure if they ever did. That game was brutal.

I think it's just cause the game came out in 1998, right when the Internet became a really big deal in Korea and they were capable of better speeds and what not. The game just came out at the perfect time. It was just the game to play at the gaming cafe's that they all go to and it caught on and of course is still going, although Starcraft 2 isn't near as popular there as Brood War was. It's easy to see Brood War came out in 1998 and wonder how people could play it for so long competitively and not get bored, but up to last year when Blizzard basically killed it off in favor of the newer game, Brood War was still changing and new build orders and strategies were being created. Pretty amazing when you think about it.
