Ikaruga is seriously the hardest game I have ever played

wars not make one great
Just to state before my criticism, I love Ikaruga. I think it's truly a spectacular and challenging game. I love the polarity system and the imaginative bosses.

Now, for anyone who has played this game, you know that it just went too far with the difficulty, which is fine. I'm always up for a challenge, but I cannot even beat this game....on normal difficulty. That may be because I have yet to play it single player. I awlays play 2 player with my friend, who dies an exorbitant amount and takes all my lives. We can't even beat stage 3. I shudder with fear at what must await us in stage 5. It's just impossible, we've tried 50 ****ing times and cannot do it. Hard mode would just be undoable for us, even the first stage.

Post your thoughts toward this game, whatever they may be. If you can name a harder game, do so and provide the reason why.

To quote the AVGN, "This is the grand champion of hard mother ****ing games"

Hardest game? You obviously haven't played Dragon's Lair on the NES.

Battletoads. That is all

Also, Ikaruga is'nt that bad, it's tough on 2P mode cause you have to cooperate otherwise the screen will just be a mess of bullets. 1P is a lot easier.
