I’ve never seen anyone try so hard but never be right
Zappy I havent played Sonic Heroes but have you ever assumed it seems harder because Sonic 2 takes about an hour and a half to beat and sonic heroes takes longer?
You see, the boss battles in Sonic Heroes, are harder than the final bosses of Sonic Adventure 2. (I leveled all the bosses flat in Sonic Adventure 2 in less than 20 seconds). It gave me a chuckle inside, when you said “I haven’t played Sonic Heroes,” because, how would you know… if you haven’t played it?
You see, it is very likely you based this assumption on the Mario Games, based on the fact you included only “new/easy” games made by Nintendo, which is a family company, and therefore children would also be a target audience.
There is of course, games made for the Atari 2600 (Pitfall), which was genuinely harder than either of the “old” games you described in your post.
Pitfall is not hard. It’s impossible.
There’s a difference. I have it for PC. That’s a broken game, like Big Rigs.
And what about Red Alert 3? That standalone expansion for it (Uprising)?
That game was stupidly hard, most likely because you are given a limited set of units to complete a mission, lose them, and you are dead.
Also, no online mode.
