Want to get so annoyed that you may punch your monitor?
Good, good. Then why don't you try I Wanna Kill The Guy. For a laugh I've started recording a playthrough of this 2d platformer that is hard as nails. Being a I Wanna be The Guy clone it has all the unfair hallmarks of the genre but relies more on acrobatics rather than learning which spike will fall and kill you.
It is free to download and will run on any PC (later than 2000 anyway).
I really am tempted to get a T-shirt knocked up for Eurogamer with my raging face and "the guy"

There is no way that i am going anywhere near this game, think this will take over my life more than Tiny Tower did.
Although I might just have 1 quick go tonight :-)

This games looks insane but am thinking about giving it a go soon maybe.
One hard game that i think everyone will agree is super meat boy. Did the light world but the dark world makes you want to cry lol
Is this easy to find and download?

I've got Super Meat Boy installed on my steam. Got it as part of the potato sack bundle when Portal 2 came out.
After I get to the end of my talent in I Wanna Kill the Guy I was thinking of continuing wit Meat Boy.
Don't know if anyone would be interested in that.
@Boombastik:
My first post at the top of the page has a download link for this game. All free and easy. ^^^

@Dash:
Why? It is that feeling in Dark Souls when you finally crack a boss. You know that your hard work has prevailed. It may not mean anything in the real world but it means something to you. I banged my head against that wall for so long that it crumbled, revealing the sunlight on the other side. Feelings like that in hum-drum life are so fleeting that it is worth seeking them in any form.
@Boombastik:
The first thing you need is the program to record your footage. I personally use Fraps for all my work as I've just been using it forever. I'm sure there are free alternatives out there, possibly Xsplit would be a good starting point as I'm fairly sure it has a record function as well as the ability to stream live to the internetz. (note: this is for PC game recording. For consoles you can substitute this step by getting a capture card.)
I record my voice locally. You can check a box and record both game sound and your voice simultaneously however if the game sound comes out too loud or quiet then you are screwed and have to re-record. I use a free program called Goldwave, seems to have all the functionality one could want with a built-in .mp3 encoder. Many others use Audacity however I've found long recordings will frequently crash when you hit the stop button. Plus you need to download and install the .mp3 encoder.
The last thing you need is an editing program. I use Sony Vegas 11 because a media friend of mine may or may not have bunged me a free copy God bless bloated budgets. Free options include Windows Movie Maker or iMovie. Adobe Final Cut is also a damn fine program but you may have to rent your arse out to afford it.
