10 Times Video Games Cheated To Beat You

It's not exactly rare for fighting games to have hard as nails AI enemies for you to best. In fact, for many fighting games, that's sort of the whole point - you honing your skills against increasingly difficult opponents so you can be at your prime when you face those real human folk.

However, some games have AI that are harder than any human opponent you could ever face, because they're downright broken. This is especially true in Mortal Kombat, a game where the AI counters every single throw after you've thrown a couple.

This is to the point where the damn characters can reverse a throw while frozen. While. Frozen.

This dark merry tradition of having the CPU do things humans physically are incapable of has continued still, with bosses like Shao Khan being able to leave players in tears with their inhumanly fast counters and blocks to this day.
