Ok, first off, i am having an argument with a "friend" who thinks that the hardest video game genre out there is RPG's. I told him he was stupid.

He then went on to claim that he is considered one of the best RPG players out there, and that he has record times(lol) and that is how he knows they are the hardest genre.

He then claims that he has played and beaten most of these games, and found them all easy.

Ninja Gaiden Black (not an RPG)
Viewtiful Joe (not an RPG)
Devil May Cry (not an RPG)
Mario 2(lost levels) (not an RPG)
Fire Emblem 5? (not a regular RPG)
Megaman 1-6 (not an RPG)
Contra (not an RPG)
Mike Tysons Punch Out! (not an RPG)
Ikaruga (not an RPG)
Radient Silvergun (not an RPG)
Pac-Man (not an RPG)
Gradius(series) (not an RPG)
R-Type(series) (not an RPG)
Ghosts n' Goblins (not an RPG)
Ikari Warriors (not an RPG)
Battletoads (not an RPG)
Double Dragon (not an RPG)
Super Ghouls & Ghosts (not an RPG)

Eventually, he started to claim that if a game was short, it usally meant that it was really easy, and that if a game was longer it usually meant it was more difficult. I told him that some of the hardest games around can be beaten quite quickley(megamans, SG&G, Ikaruga, VJ etc.), and he claimed that they were easy games because they can be beaten quickley.

ANYWAY, TO THE POLL

i think the hardest genre is mmorpgs

like WoW

a) time is needed to get anywhere
B) playing world pvp is a bitch cuz u could be running around collecting flowers for a quest minding ur own business then BAM an army of 40 horde come at u adn tear u apart and camp ur body
c) im broke as hell


puzzle games i feel are easy
survival horror games r easy the only reason the could be considered hard is if ur too scared to play
rpgs r ridiculously easy
most action games r on the easy side

basically any game online is hard tho counter strike is hard, halo 2 online can be hard, dead or alive online is a REAL bitch ppl r so good at it...but yeah anything online can easily be the hardest game ever

and i just noticed andys post andhave to really agree with him

I'll disagree with you there.

MMO games are hard at first but once you reach a certain level then you're amazing. It just takes patience.


Games like Devil May Cry on Heaven/Hell or Ninja Gaiden on hardest difficulty is something that drives you insane. You ahve to have perfectt precision to win.

For example: A fight against Super Akuma in Capcom vs SNK will make you throw your controller at the tv screen in frustration. If you mis time one jump then he'll combo your ass and you lose. Guys like Gill in Street Fighter Third Strike who can revive himself after you killl him.... these guys just make you pissed.

I say fighting games are the hardest genres out there. It takes a long time to master a game and a lot of patience to make yourself one of the best.

Don't even get me started on SSBM and how some people are just amazing in that game.

Side Scrolling Action games like MEgaman or Ghosts and Goblins.

Acually, RTS. I can at least win sometimes in megaman. I've never won at an RTS
