10 Video Game Enemies That Made You Turn The Console Off
Sifu doesn't hold ANYTHING back.
When it comes to difficulty in video games, there are two increasingly polarised camps.
Either you relish a good challenge, accept the frustrations and somewhat welcome them, knowing there'll be an indescribable feeling of reward on the other side... or it's just not how you want to spend your time.
