10 Hardest Video Game Levels That Required Incredible Skill

10. Mile High Club (Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare)

Although it may have had one (or three) too many sequels to its initially-quite-good name, 2007's genre-defining Modern Warfare knew people were always going to get stuck into its incredibly proficient mechanics. So much so that developers Infinity Ward actually saved the best for last. Many COD fans point to the game's tenacious multiplayer as the proving ground for their skills, but if you got all the way through the single player campaign and watched all the credits, this bonus level was unlocked. Testing the lightning-fast reactions we'd built up through the likes of the campaign and the multiplayer, if you played this level on Veteran difficulty you were tasked with reaching the end within just one minute. It's a time limit so tight that you sprint from person to person, ensuring every bullet must hit home - the stinger coming at the very end where one of the terrorists has taken a hostage, meaning your final shot has to be almost pixel-perfect precise to make sure you don't throw everything away.
