Ghosts 'n' Goblins. Anything harder than that almost certainly wasn't made in the past 10 years.
And yeah, modern games are easier than older ones. This is because today's game developers care more about profit than quality.

What the hell are you talking about. If developers cared less about quality they would just up the stats of enemies to make the game last longer and ship it like that. Like in all the old games, to make it last longer they increased the difficulty, otherwise you would complete it in about an hour.
Where is your logic? Difficulty does not = quality. Alot of the bigger developers spend way more time on tweaking difficuly levels then the old developers. They want people to be able to progress but have a challenge.
My vote goes to the last level on farcry, on hard it took me about 50 tries. But none of the game was really easy, it was just right throughout most of the game in my opinion.

Anyone played Ninja Gaiden for xbox? Fucking hard as hell. I don't like the idea of having to pull 100 hit combos and if you screw the combo up you die. Also there were barely any save points. And the camera sucks ass. Threw my controller quite a lot of times and made me swear a lot too.
I don't find an impossible game like that fun. But I do like a challenge. Far Cry was a great game and it was hard. When I got past a hard part it felt like I acomplished something. With Ninja Gaiden I'll get past the hard part but then as soon as I get past that there's another hard as hell part.
I remember Battletoads. Such a great game. Played it all the time when I went over my friend's house. 2 player was so much fun. Oh that reminds me. The Metal Slug games are also quite hard but very fun.

C&C collectors edition extra missions. I've only completed one of them (I think there was 10-15). Even if you did the excat right thing you got a winning chance on about 20%...

although battletoads was pretty damned hard id hafta say a little game called legacy of the wizard. tho come to think of it any of the contra series or wizards n warriors series kicked my ass as well. the metroid games were challenging as well.

commandos 2 was rated hardest PC game of all time. and ill agree with that. level 1 took abt 40 mins level 2 an hour level 3 too fuckin long level 4 i dont think i got past this twat  . also abt republic.... that games more of a sim type so thats as hard as u want it to be. other hard games was manic miner and a few other possible i.e has an endin. games mainly come from 8bit world and lower. far cry on hardest on the volcano isnt impossible..... its hard but not impossible u just gotta take them out real quick with the sniper and rockets.

What about some old text games like ZORK and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? Old RPG's were hard as hell too. Bards Tale anyone? By the time I beat it I had like 20 pages of graph paper with the maps drawn out on them. No one has experiences the ultimate in tedium until they have mapped out a RPG by hand.
I think a distinction should be made between Hard games and Frustrating games. Anyone can make a frustrating game. Most 2d console games weren't hard as much as frustrating. Eg. you have to do every little thing *exactaly right* (like ghosts and goblins for instance). Games like that have mostly diassapeared. For a good reason too: they just suck.
Frustrating: Game that is unnecessarily difficult to disguise the utter lack of playable content. The game forces the player to rehash the same sections ad nauseum otherwise the entire game could be completed in minutes. (Ghosts and Goblins, Battle Toads, most early 2d scrollers. Medal of Honor sniper slayfests.
Hard: Game that is challenging, smart, complicated, and difficult as a result of a challenging game environment not a lack of content. (FarCry, Half-Life, Ghost Recon, System Shock 2)
*most incoherent post ever*

and Aliens V Predator unpatched was a bitch with the lack of saves and the keypad of the near last level of Sanitarium goddamn i had a hell of a time trying to get through that.
