The Void for PC,

Not the "omg the enemies are too strong" hard, its the type of game where if you make one mistake, you are fucked, never been able to complete it myself even though i try again every month or so.

Made by Russian studio Ice Pick Lodge (i think), more proof that the Russians like their games frustrating yet atmospheric as hell.

Alien Hominid should be pretty perfect for you guys, only about 12-15 levels, gets ridiculously hard on anything above easy, and you can get it off XBLA. Its also got co-op.

Also: Tenchu : Wrath Of Heaven (on last generation systems, would make a decent revival club podcast too)

I would have to say Earthworm Jim 1 & 2. Also Gradius 3 would be fun to see played.

I fucking love you widowhams!

Just grasping the basics of the gameplay in The Void took me quite a few deaths and I still haven|t killed the first brother, or saved another sister or whatever. I suck so hard at that game, but I want to experience it so much.

Learned about the Void from a Rock Paper Shotgun series on Pathologic (Ice Pick Studios previous game), seems like Pathologic is even more mentally tiring than The Void so I'm sure it would have a place on a list of the worlds hardest games.

Djees,
if you want a similar experience, but far more accessible.
you should look at Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason if you haven't already.

Is pretty good, but broken.

just a few off the top of my head: battletoads / ninja gaidan 2 / jak 2 / skate 2 / and oddworld: munch's oddysy

i know there are more and if i think of them i will be sure to post them. i know some of these games are long but find one that isnt. if a game is hard it should take a while to finish it, but hey, wo know's what your planning david

i gave my friends a call and this is what they told me:
1)contra
2)shinobi
3)devil may cry 3 (not the remake)
4)ikaruga (one of my fave arcade games)
5)f-zero gx
6)ghouls and ghosts (i have'nt played it myself, but my friend says it is fairly long mainly because you have to play through it twice)

hope these give you some ideas. cant wait! :)
