Oh no it's too hard...

Is anyone like me where they absolutely love a game being ridiculously hard? Does anyone know of any games like that? I think it makes a game better, you play it as intended and feel a sense of accomplishment. Although these so called "Hard" modes can disappoint, Halo:Reach Solo Legendary, done twice and felt like Heroic. (Will provide links to gamertags if asked to prove) I'm currently playing Dead Space 2 Hardcore and this is fun, not stupendously hard and slightly more forgiving than Zealot but the tension and nerves of losing all that progress is what really makes you want to play your best. My point is does anyone know of any stupendously hard games that would guarantee calm old me a night or two of fun. 360 or PC.DeadlyNirvana

Too bad you don't have a PS3 because Demon's Souls is really hard, like Nintendo hard. You can wait for Dark Souls which is also going to be on the 360 or you could download a NES emulator and play some Ninja Gaiden games among others.

Ninja Gaiden 2, have fun with the camera and cheap enemies.

Edit: my post was written after yours.

The original Dead To Rights xbox version is a pretty good challenge.

I did have one and Demon's Souls, I sold the PS3 a few days ago due to it just gathering dust. I'll give Gaiden a try, only tried Ninja Gaiden II for 360.DeadlyNirvana

Actually forget that there's a game called I Want to Be The Guy. Download it and play it. It's LITERALLY impossible.
