    Vagrant Story, just the game itself.

    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Breaking the "12 points in a given essence" barrier when blacksmithing/tempering in Legend of Mana. Of course, that was before the whole mechanism was decoded and reverse engineered two years after. Now there's little challenge, it's just a matter of gathering the necessary ingredients and following a recipe.

    And then there is Death

    Beating Omega in FFV without using the Sshot!/sorcerer/Two swords strategy. Ozma from FFIX was a pain too. Their is also trying to get Pink Tails in FFIV and just trying to beat FFX-2 without losing your will to live.

    But I still think that just trying to beat Vagrant Story is the hardest. Even with a strategy guide it's still difficult but it's far more difficult (and fun) to do it solo.

    This is gonna seem really wussy, but beating the Steamwood Forest section in Brave Fencer Musashi for the second time in the game. They made it a lot harder the second time around, and things in games with time limits are always harder for me than any boss battle or pitfall I may encounter.
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    I forgot about that part

    No, that was a pain in the ass with the timer and all. I almost broke my controller in frustration a dozen times.

    Glad someone else remembers what I'm talking about.

    I went through many a controller trying to beat that damn area.

    Technically that's just an Enix game.

    Getting through Unlimited Saga is a task and a half.

    Warmech in the original. Suppose to be a rare encounter but I seemed to fight it everytime I went to get Tiamat.
