The idea of games being hard stems from just that hard games.

Also, it seems to me I suck at a lot of hard games. I have only beaten maybe more than a handful of games.

It all started when I played Battle Toads for the Sega and then later on the NES.

I screamed and threw my Sega controller down in rage. If there were any games like this I would sure find them. Ikaruga is another game I was never able to play let alone beat. Son of a bitch! Games are growing increasingly harder and that's a great thing.

We are finding our roots. Games deserve to make us fail. In an IGN article it stated that games are too easy in this day in age. Not to mention they are fairly short. I am guilty of not even playing through Super Meat Boy because I suck at it. I love the game but suck at it.

Aw yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh! In era of crappy COD's there has to be games that are hard. Some recent or soon to be examples is the new revamped Binding of Issac. I never played the game but hear it is difficult. Dark Souls...dear God. I have died 25 times on one part. The part in question was running through or near this mechanical bull. I ran through it and jumped down a great little starewell only to be cornered by two  knights with big-ass swords. They filleted my ass. What was I to do. I didn't quit and instead beat the Game of the Year the Last of Us.

I understand hard games too well. That's why I haven't beaten many of them. I consider Zombies Ate my Neighbors hard. I also friggin consider any Mario game or Zelda game hard. To date I have only beaten Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, Link's Awakening and I think I got far on the gold cartridge on the NES. I am not sure though.

Cranking up the difficulty weeds out the punk bitches so the real gamer's can game.

Shinobi anyone? Ninja Gaiden.....for a pile of fucks don't get me started on 'yon game.

:(

Either way it is very exciting for developers to cater to the more hardcore gamers.

Good on ya developers.
