I just thought I’d share this site in case anyone wasn’t aware it existed.

Its a website built on romhacks or patches that increase the difficulty of the games, usually rebalancing difficult areas of the game as well. They have harder and rebalanced versions of Ogre Battle, Final Fantasy Tactics, Chrono Cross, Megaman X, Shining Force 2, Lufia, Grandia, and more! If that sounds like something you might be interested in go and take a look.
