I don't know about being the hardest game of the generation. But it sure is hard and tough to progress, even the creator Myiazaki says "I wanted to create a masochistic game that i would play. No one that i hired could do it, so i made it myself" So i laugh at everyone who says it isn't a hard game ( believe me there will be a lot here... trying to sound badass :(
I knew exactly what game to expect. Of course it's different from the previous installments, i knew that from the very first trailer, and it is nowhere near the original DmC which is such a classic for me and can't be beaten by DmC 3 or 4. Still the new art design is pretty good and i had fun with the demo...and wanted more by the end of it.

I think VVVVVV deserves a full review with a solid score. For anyone who doesn't know about this game: It's "basically" a platform game with ancient graphics and chip tune soundtrack. But it differs from any game i have ever seen (since games like limbo and Meat Boy) You can NOT jump in this game. Instead you simply press a button that inverts gravity...exploring this simple gameplay to the max, the game stands out for being smart, intelligent, complex and one of the best platform games i have ever played. But what really makes this game so interesting is: The Soundtrack. The music is So good and intriguing, i mean SOOOO good that you will never give up even if dying 30 times in the same room. "Potential For Anything" and "positive power" are just a few of the songs that will catch you like a little fish with its heroicness. This simple yet so complex and intriguing game is like a "Punch on the Face" of the today cliched games. I recommend it to anyone who is a fan of platform gaming. Hell even if you aren't give this gem a try. You will not be disappointed.
