Games nowadays are just plain too easy. And the hard modes just basically increase the amount of damage you take, they're not designed for as much skill anymore. I miss truly having to work at a boss. The satisfaction you get when you finally take them down is compared to no other.

Another example and then I'll quit :P. I remember playing Final Fantasy 2 (USA) and spending HOURS leveling up Rydia before the last boss just so she would get high enough to get Meteo, just so I could have a shot at beating the boss.

I could beat contra with 1 guy. Not sure how special that makes me but none of my friends could do it.

A Link to the Past is probably my favorite Zelda game of all time.
When it was first coming out, they did a pre-review of it in Nintendo Power and I was immediately sold. I remember that game taking a LONG time to release too. This was before all this fancy "internet" business too, where you could just look up when an item was going to be released. I called Toys R Us for weeks just asking them if they had it in yet.

That's quite a feat. I used the konami code and almost all my lives to beat that game.

Those were the days, one shot....dead.

if you like SHMUP's then there are still a number of them that will get you screaming in frustration ^^

But I like games so much though I am not playing any games now. Because these games give me a good brain storming. And I wanna revive myself to play games..

I am also tired of my XBOX 360..... thinking about sellin it with my 10+ games lol.....

it was fun though... but it got boring
