[QUOTE="monkeytoes61"]Wii Sports. Have you ever played it with a super competitive person? It's gets intense.funsohngso true. one time my friend threw the wiimote at me because he lost That's why you should wear the wrist strap :P
Divinity II, Demon's Souls, Risen, and a few others.
Very difficult, hardcore, and niche titles.

Risen is only hard when you are 1st leveling then it gets WAY to easy. Im level 18 or 19 and to be honest the game has got boring now i can kill any enemy like they were a chicken. The enemies scaling dose not work properly. Hardcore: Although im not entirely sure what the term means Deamons Souls while played online is certainly one of the hardest.
Demons Souls also has the whole MMORPG slight feel with the grinding so yeah. Hardcore a game you spend time on that presents a challenge is my definitation for now so yeah Demons Souls.
Definently modern warefare 2 ( stop hitting me with stones, it was a joke)
A hardcore game shouldnt be considered hardcore because of difficulty - it should be a game that casuals dont pick up (obviously) because it takes time and dedication to complete. My suggestion would be fallout 3 or MGS4- how can anyone that hasnt played the other games in the series of MGS understand what is even going on in MGS4
Halo 3
Dead or Alive 4
Both are extremely good and extremely difficult.
I wasn't talking difficult. Because you just mentioned some VERY CASUAL games. He was talking hardcore as in nich games for str8 up gamers.Hard question, a lot of "hardcore" games only have one of the few symptoms (of what I consider) "hardcore" games.
The only game that I can think of right now that has the best mixture of depth, difficulty, longevity, and a large learning curve would be UnREAL World. A few other games would fit the spot (generally strategic scope games) but UnREAL World comes to mind first.
Because no one has a better idea of what the hell a hardcore game is :PHow come difficult = hardcore? :|

Kudos to sins :P
X3 should be here also..just read this from the X3 handbook
X3 is Unique. It was deliberately designed to be played over an extended period of time, and to take that time to get
there.
Most games are designed to be completed within a few weeks. And this is the expectation of most gamers, before
they discover the X Universe.
Expectation collides with the X universe and often results in frustration and irritation. People often go into the game
expecting to make quick money and buy all the biggest, most expensive items in the game, within days. The game
wont let them.
X3 is deliberately designed to take 6 months or more to play, and there are still X2 players who have been playing the
same game for 18 months or more. All the high end products take a lot of time to get, during which time you will
build some sort of trading empire and achieve a quite respectable combat rank.
It can take days to just learn how to survive. The learning curve is very steep. Starting out, you need to spend time
learning, exploring and doing. Only after you know what you are doing, will you be able to take advantage of the real
money making features.
MW2 hardcore lol...i think we are talkin about if its casual or hardcore not the difficulty....[QUOTE="Raiden004"]
Ninja Gaiden 2 and Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran difficulty are pretty hardcore.

Exactly... of course someone ends up mentioning Call of Duty in a hardcore game thread...
Really no contest - it's....
:P
Seriously, hmm since so many are already listed I'll go with Too Human - You had to be HC to play it since it scored so badly here at GS... :twisted:

X3 should be here also..devious742X is easily the best space sim franchise, steep learning curve, but so rewarding it is totally worth it. I would say WOW, since it RUINED so many lives.Personally games aren't hardcore, but you can have a "hardcore experience" from games, if you know what i mean. Oh and i voted Demon's Souls,because i love that game,nothing to do with hardcore,but i think it is extremely bashed by people who didn't play it and therefore deserves more attention ;(
I think what he means by hardcore is something "normal gamers" wouldn't enjoy or implications from what he said that would lead to that result,if experienced. Be it difficulty,long cutscenes,hard user created levels or doing everything in witcher(quests,sidequests etc)HANDS DOWN. No competition. Wiifit
(btw for MGS4 how are "long cutscenes" hardcore? O.o)
