Hardest goddamn game ever.

I think I remember that being the case.

oh god, every iteration of that game is SO hard. I beat II though. once.

I assume you mean the Xbox version.

It's hard, but worth it.
Any game that forces me to throw a controller in disgust, and then have the urge to pick it right back up again is a winner.

Yeah it's hard yet awesome. I hate it but can't stop playing.

EDIT: Oh and this is on Xbox. And I'm talking about fvcking NORMAL difficulty level. Trying to imagine what hard must be like is painful.

It's funny, once you have beaten the game on normal, you can go back to all the parts you thought were hard at the beginning (like that first boss on the horse) and it seems easy.

I didn't really check out any of the tougher difficulty settings. I was just happy that I had finished the game with some of my sanity intact.

"(like that first boss on the horse)"

Ha! That's exactly where I'm stuck right now. Soooo frustrating. I think I have to go back and do the whole level over saving more potions.

Yikes.
Get ready for some real challenges ahead.

Having a lot of health there is important, so go ahead and go back. You probably could eventually beat him and his two respawning buddies, but it would be difficult.

Yeah I have actually killed all the mage guys a couple times, but never with enough health left to kill the horse.
