Burn! I literally only gave that game 15-20 minutes of my time. Did you ever actually play it or beat it?

Exactly this!
You can try the stealth and fighting challenges ad nausea, but I didn't find myself inclined to it.

 It's too late now because you haven't been PAYING ATTENTION.

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway. I seriously loved the two games because of their well-balanced difficulty, but the third exchanged a good story for a seriously broken fucking bazooka team mechanic that made the game way too damned easy.

Go play it on Professional.
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow.
Also, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories has virtually no difficult sections whatsoever. I don't think challenge is really the point, though.

I've been looking forward to playing that, are you telling me it's disappointingly easy?!?! |
I found it entertaining and fun, but it is easy and over too quickly.

Final Fantasy Tactics
I don't remember ever running into significant problems with that game. Ever. Way too easy. A victory in Final Fantasy you should have to work for and put real hours in. This didn't have that.

I have to agree with Kirby. Although I will say, I think SuperStars is definitely harder than Adventure on the NES. (By the same token, I think the puzzles and hidden switches on the NES were MUCH harder than the SNES.)

I agree, Arkham Asylum was pretty damn good, but it was too easy, and kinda a bit tedious. And it had some replay value, I kinda found it hard to find all thos Riddler Statues! lol.

Arkham Asylum was appropriately difficult on hard I thought. Combat is much more challenging because those little "I'm about to attack now" indicators don't pop up above enemies' heads. And getting shot pretty much kills you instantly so you really have to think and act carefully during the predator sections. One mistake and it's usually over. Unfortunately, the boss fights are still lame as hell.
I disagree about the Riddler icons though. Those shits were easy as hell to find. It might have been the first time in a game with "find X secret objects" that I didn't need to use a guide to get everything.

Rainbow Six Vegas... I breezed right through that game like nothing. Only part that gave me trouble was trying to save Kan... Compared to the rest of the R6 games this was the Easiest and I was a little disappointed in it.

Played? Yes. Beat it? No. I consider Halo 1 to be the spiritual successor to Daikatana. Both had dull, awful level designs.

The Mega Man games were awesome. But I remember beating every one of them in about 5 days or less.

Good point, I'm sure it was a lot. But not nearly as many times as Ghosts n' Goblins.

Seriously though, The Great Circus Mystery Starring Mickey and Minnie. I loved playing that game with my brothers, but it was pretty simple. Except for that cloud boss, he can fuck off.

Agreed. Poison Ivy was a little pain in the ass, but yea the game difficulty between Normal and Hard is exceptionally higher. Not knowing when guys are attacking and being in a group of like 12 of them = true Batman like battles.

Okami. What with all the additions to your lifebar, the restorative items, and then the stupid astral pouches, you've got a game where the only challenge is in finding the Game Over screen. It would be like starting off Wind Waker with 5 bottles and 2 fairies in each.
Yet Okami still rips Wind Waker to shreds.

I love me some Okami, but you're right--too easy. Though on the Wii sometimes the controls are a little screwed up so that adds a challenge. Not the kind you're looking for, but...

Agreed, unless you want to find everyone's "dizzy combo" and get all of the best times possible.
Still satisfying to power bodyblow someone and send them flying into the ringpost.
