IGN: Ghosts 'N Goblins Review

IGN: I don't know what it is about games in this series in particular, but every time I play them I somehow feel much more willing to deal with the incredible frustration of their excessive difficulty. Maybe it's because that's what Ghosts 'N Goblins is -- challenge incarnate. Maybe it's a nostalgia thing. Maybe it's because there really is something clinically wrong with me, and I really am overdue for a visit with a licensed professional.

Whatever the case, my madness may not be entirely my own. If you share in it and in an appreciation for this franchise's unique ability to make you want to punch a hole in a wall, download quickly.

Ghosts 'n Goblins was the Demon's Souls of the mid 80's... or Demon's Souls is the Ghosts 'n Goblins of the 2000's... whatever. Loved this game when I was a kid, never did beat it though.

I was able to beat the first loop when I was a kid, but not the second. And I only did that once. That was the SMS version.

All I'm gonna say is that the red gargoyle can kiss my ass. Anyone who has played this knows exactly who I'm talking about.
