    So true. I HATED that game! =D

    Half way through reading the article I tried guessing what games would be on the list and I got Contra and Ghosts n' Goblins right. ;)
  • CIrdan, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1haha man believe it or not I did beat the damn part, it was hard but the difficult part was the next level, where you get the useless turtle van. Also the NES version of EMPIRE STRIKES BACKS NEVER HAPPENED! EVER YOU HEAR ME!!!! (strokes stuffed wampa)
  • omgwtfftl, on 04/26/2008, -0/+0everyone of those games had its parts where i just wanted to fling my controller into the tv
  • JBone007, on 05/14/2008, -0/+0Contra broke my heart and crushed my dreams on a nightly basis and thanks to Xbox Live Arcade, it can continue to do so.
  • MCWarriors, on 05/20/2008, -0/+0Cracked wicked hit this one on the head. Especially the Mike Tyson one. I played through most of those but never once beat Tyson at his own game. I died a little each time I tried.
