I played an escape game that you needed to get out of a house but to get the key you went through each room solving various puzzles in order to get out thats probably the hardest game but great for using ur head :D

There was this game on the PS1. wargods or something. A fighter like tekken.
Back in the day (1996-1997) me and my mate used to rent that game EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND for about 2 months and WE JUST COULD NOT BEAT THE FINAL BOSS.
WE gave up after that.

UFO Enemy Unknown on Superhuman difficulty. I was getting through the game quite handily, albeit with high casualty rates, but once I started encountering the Ethereal race, my guys stood no chance to their psy attacks. I ended up avoiding any crash site missions containing Ethereals. Unfortunately, the alien base on Mars, during the end game, was full of these aliens and I suffered a humiliating defeat before half my guys even made it out of the transport ship. They were just getting mind controlled and killing their teammates. I tried it so many times with no difference. One day I might start a new game and try again.

Pretty much most NES and SNES games ever released. My most recent would be Jak II on PS2. Google it to see how notoriously hard this game is. It's a miracle that I managed to beat it. I'm so l33t :D.

I just can't think of a game that was the hardest so I'm just putting contra there coz it was kinda difficult... but still fun fun fun.

To be quite honest, I have no idea... I got stuck in a room/hall/staircase stage and couldn't find my way out... Now if you ask Maplassie, I'm not a very patient gamer... Quit the game, uninstalled it and called it a bad days work... :o

Some of those old NES, SNES and Sega games were all crazy difficult. However there was one of the earlier Alone in the Dark games on PC that I tried and I tried and tried and after hours of just dying the whole time I uninstalled it.
I was thinking of giving it a try again... but this time while using a walkthrough.

Argh frustrating memories, I always ended up broke as $h!t or my buildings don't get to be as extravagant as in the screenshots:(.
Still liked playing city builders though.

Tetris. I don;t know of anyone who has finished this game.
Seriously though, the games which have given me the most difficulty are:
Total Annihilation [couldn't finish]
The Secret of Monkey Island [couldn't finish]
Quest for Glory 2,3,4 [Couldn't finish]
Quake [took me a while to work out how to kill Shub Niggurath]
Velnor's Lair [took me months]
Message from Andromeda [likewise]
God of War [gave up]
Honeycomb Beat [persevering]
Half Life [got stuck]
I could go on, but that would be cruel.

But one game I will never finish. Zork. I can't finish that damn game.

Doom II co-op multiplayer. A lot more monsters than normal, and a lot more dieing. I recall on one level having a cyberdemon at the level starting area. Took about 10 minutes and 100 deaths to kill it. While difficult, it was a lot of fun and I would do it again. I even managed to telefrag a cyberdemon once :D.
Any game that has no speed control and running on a machine that is too fast. I remember an old game called Berzerk that was too fast on a 386SX.

Ye it's flippen irritating. Takes me about 5 tries to finish a race...and then you end up finishing 1st/2nd. Stupid crashes.
But seriously ... Karateka the OLD nintendo game was still friggen impossible.
The invention of the "SAVE GAME" option changed gaming completely!
