The 100 HARDEST Levels in Video Game History

from The Retrograde: A Video Game Podcast

What's more rage inducing than failing time and time again when faced with a particularly challenging area in a video game? The real answer, for those of us with a temper, is ultimately being unable to complete the challenge indefinitely due to the fact that you've resorted to breaking your controller over the same thick skull that couldn't figure out how to "Get Over It" with Bennett Foddy. While sometimes all it takes is a quick head smack, or an "ah-HAH" moment, a few levels in video games tower above the rest, planting their flags mountains of busted controllers and earning their spot in a list of the 100 Hardest Levels in Video Game History. Thankfully the talented folks over at Vulture have put in a painstaking amount of effort to piece together a wonderful article which outlines their picks for this list. We figured we'd use this wonderful bit of gaming journalism as a jumping off point to talk about some of the picks we agreed with, some we didn't, and the levels which would have topped our own lists. The article is a "must read" and we'd highly suggest digesting it, or even following along as the episode goes.
