10 Notoriously Difficult Levels In Video Games

10. The Train - Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

GTA San Andreas CJ
Rockstar Games

While relatively simple when you understand the game's shooting mechanics and the angles of the encounter, the train mission in GTA San Andreas has become infamous for its difficulty and the accompanying 'Game Over' line immortalised by Big Smoke...

"All we had to do, was follow the damn train, CJ!"

The difficulty came in chasing down the train and defeating the enemies that were standing on top of it. However, the problem most players had was juggling the fine line between getting close enough for Big Smoke to shoot, but far away enough for him to be able to hit him.

If you haven't heard the famous line from Big Smoke, then welcome to the internet. The mission was forever cemented in its notoriety and the subsequent difficulty attached to it, around about the time Big Smoke entered the realm of internet memes.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
