Whats the most stressful game you ever played?

[Knowledge]

I don't mean stressful as in frustrating, but stressful as in pressured. For me it had to be Dead Space 1 on the 360. I bought it not knowing much about it and I could only play it in short burst because of of scary that game was (I love horror), but when it came to the part where the ship was running out of oxygen and you're under a time counter, only for a unkillable regen alien to show up and hunt you down... man that was stressful as hell lol. I don't think any other game has made me feel like that before. The closest was Resident Evil 7 on the psvr while getting chased around the first house.

Nothing really phases me today but when I first played Clocktower that game definitely got to me.

Part pressured, part frustrating. As a kid keeping the lead on this boss was no joke

 

[NoMorePie]

Metal Gear Solid 4 on the hardest difficulty.

XCOM Ufo Defense for ps1 (yes the original version).

Sending soldiers out without any psonic training or weapons against ethereals is instant suicide.

Alien Isolation

Alien Isolation

I'm going through this one now.

 

[Lord Beasley]

Resident evil 3.

Nemesis chasing that ass while you're limping

XCom 2 - literally just beat it yesterday. That RNG shyt is a fukking infuriating scam.

Alien Isolation - I'm pretty good at puzzles but after repeated attempts at the first major interaction with those bots, I've taken a hiatus...

Alien Isolation

How'd you beat the area where you have to get away from those fukking bots the first time??

Hopefully I'm describing the part correctly.

PT. The atmosphere alone

Couldn't finish it after "look behind you"

 

[ChuckTaylor84]

Hardest game ever made which you have to beat twice in a row lol

 

[daze23]

probably Alien Isolation for single player

DayZ or Battlegrounds for multiplayer

Toss up between playing Halo 3 (or 4) by myself on Legendary or playing COD World At War's campaign on the hardest difficulty. Both had respawning cheap enemies, few and far between checkpoints but I give the nod to WAW for cheapness 'cause even though you'd do best going low and taking it slow as opposed to just being the guns blazing one man army that all these FPS games make you out to be, you could quickly lose your life and progress by randomly generated snipers that you can't hit or even if you did, would respawn due to the Monster locker being left open all the time.

Plus they used to lob grenades at you to the point where the game was almost comical. Hell, come to think of it, I think someone had a theory tha Grenades SPAWNED as opposed to being thrown in that shyt.

All of ninja gaiden 2 that game made me realize practically any Japanese game with action required you to block and counter constantly to do anything, game damn near required you to be a ninja lol
