Chapter 25 Fire Emblem Fates Conquest Lunatic. Literally the spawn of the devil.

Mile High Club on Veteran in COD4 was a doozy.
Edit-
The level with Khe San (sp?) Hill in Blops1 was fucking annoying on Veteran as well.

That one was tough, but I remember getting through that section with only 2-3 deaths.
TMNT for the NES
Came in here for this.
The Team Missions in Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 are raging inducing.
This one in particular took me forever to beat

The end of One Shot, One Kill is also pretty brutal when you're trying to wait for the chopper to pick you up.

Not hair-tearing levels of frustration, but the clocktower in Castlevania 1 can be pretty hectic with all the Fleamen and whatnot.

Climbing out from the underworld in the first God of War. Fuck that shit.

Any level with stairs in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse.
Stage 5 on Sypha's path, and stage 9 are the biggest offenders. Trying to use the sub-weapons, or attack, or dodge, or do anything is so hard. It doesn't help that the international release of this game is way tougher than the Japanese version.
I was planning on playing Fates on Hard/Classic when I got it, but this is the 5th or 6th time I've seen this chapter mentioned. I'm honestly kind of scared.

I know this chapter is designed as an intentional thematic counterpart to another chapter but for the lunatic Version they just went overboard on the contrast and they throw one of the most ridiculous skills in the Franchise at you, which rewrites the rules of one of the main mechanics of the game.
The most fearful enemies are not those Beserkers, Trueblades or Generals, but Maids.

The on rails turret section in Jak 2 or the mission where you have to destroy the giant spider tanks as they rampage across the city. Like fuck how did I beat that game as a kid.

Welp I just spent all night on Thornmarch Extreme in FFXIV and have nothing to show for it except for that goddamn song stuck in my head. King Mog don't take no prisoners, I'll tell you that.

The meat circus level in Psychonauts.
Fuck that level. I rage quit and never picked up the game again. I'm pretty sure the disc is still sitting in my original Xbox.

I can't hate on Champions Road because while difficult it manages to both make use of a lot of mechanics from the game while upping the difficulty of them in a way that isn't bullshittingly hard.
Special 8 - Crown IIRC had a lot of stupid shit like using the high bounce off of toads to reach platforms you could hardly guess the distance to correctly that made it almost impossible to do unless you had a tanooki suit.
My personal vote goes to the Stone Cyclone Galaxy from SMG2 since I just went through that. They brought back one of the lamer/hard parts of the original just so they could make it faster. Quite honestly the only real low point of the game for me.
