Right, so let’s begin with something as simple as getting through a tutorial. Should be easy right? Nope, because this is Driver, a game that placed your nuts in front of its tyres and drove over them right out of the gate.

A lot of people look to Dark Souls as having the archetypal difficult openings but this was just as infuriating for many. Even massive YouTubers like NerdCubed regaled the world with tails of this haunting tutorial level which tasked you with completing a checklist of driving tricks in a dingy garage.

Yet that garage would become a tomb for many. While it looks as simple as a ham sandwich, this was actually deviously difficult.
