Corwin of Amber. Top gun was hard, I feel like I rarely got to the 3rd stage or so. I like how all of these seemingly impossible games that 10 year old me and friends spent hours and hours bashing our heads against the wall with are all now beaten on youtube in like 20 minutes. Streetfighter 2010, Back to the Future (I think I missed the part in the movie where you throw bowling balls at bees), Top Gun etc. I have beat BattleToads  kiimo posted:I can land this plane with my eyes closed. Refueling was harder. I did not think Spy Hunter was beatable, I was under the impression it was high score based and the game went on forever.

fartknocker posted:I have no memory of that mission being a problem, although getting the upgrade thingy at the city at the end was mildly tricky since IIRC it was in between some buildings and you had to go very slow and at the right angle to get it. In order to get a gold medal for that mission you had to destroy all the Imperal bacta tanks without destroying the friendly bacta tanks that were next to them. It was simple enough but for some reason the Imperial tanks sometimes were buggy in that if you shot at them, the hitbox wouldn't recognize the shots and it'd go through them and hit the friendly ones and destroy them. After a bunch of trial and error I found the angle you approached them mattered in detecting hits. It was the last mission I got a gold medal on.

My sophomore going into junior summer break, I finished building my first PC then decided to beat as many SNES RPGs on an emulator as possible. I remember beating all 3 Final Fantasies for it, Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia, Terranigma, Robotrek, Live A Live, Chrono Trigger, Tales of Phantasia, Earthbound, Secret and Trials of Mana, both Lufias, both Breath of Fires, and of course Super Mario RPG. I probably should have hung out with people more then!

Quiet Feet posted:My grandmother died yesterday. She was 95 and got Covid in January and it seems like even after she got over it she wasn't quite the same. My mother and all of her siblings were with her, at least, including one uncle who drove up (to CT) from Virginia overnight to be there. My condolences to you and your fam, QF. I have dinner every Sunday with my dad and sister, and a couple of weeks ago quietly and privately got a little bit emotional overhearing my sis talk to our dad about her therapy/grief counseling, and her saying that our mom was her best friend really hit me, especially as I realized she was our dad's best friend too. So I kinda feel you there on feeling worse for those closer. My mother's eldest sibling, our aunt Zoe passed away yesterday. It was not unexpected, she had started palliative care a week ago and had been in a home for some time. She'd been dealing with MS for a couple of decades or so, and in the last week couldn't keep food down. To be honest, I had largely lost touch with my relatives in Canada since I moved to the US in 1999, until Facebook came along and we started reconnecting to some extent. At the moment I'm not grieving super hard for my aunt, but I'm pretty sure when I give her kids a call I'm going to feel how hard it's hitting my cousins.

Now that you mention that, I vaguely remember those hitboxes being an issue on replays, but it wasn't the worst for me. IIRC, the hardest ones for me to get Gold (But not necessarily beat) were Sullust and Thyferra. Sullust just had so many missile batteries the warning sound is burned into my brain, and it took me a bit of time to realize you didn't need to blow up every single emplacement to get to that tricky capacitor at the end. Thyferra had a lot going on, tons of targets and fighters and poo poo, and then the boss fight at the end was a pain early on. Episode I: Battle for Naboo I remember being harder for me to get all Gold on. Some of the speeder and boat levels were tricky as hell.

Other than the Japan only games I think I beat every single one of those on cartridge, plus Ogre Battle and the 7th Saga. As all seven characters no less. I may have played the 7th Saga more than any American. The local video store had a RPG connoisseur and not many takers. One other to be exact, to the point this guy always took the first save slot, and I’d take the third. I ran into him at my first job. He was like the Shelbyville version of me - same personality, same acne, same stupidly high grades and taste in video games, we both had a lovely GM B-body, but he went to the rival high school. Should have been a blaring klaxon I was a full blown weirdo.

Spending almost all my time the 1st time I was in the Philippines playing Ikari Warriors with my cousins was pretty fun. Somehow the movie channels today were showing The Hunt for Arex October and Ferris Bueller's Day Off, which both have Jeffrey Jones. I did have a moment thinking "what's he been up to?" and  .

I’ll never forget the unbridled excitement, unwrapping Zelda with its gold cartridge for the first time. It snowed in South Georgia for the first time in a century or something and I was too sick to play in it. Six years old, and I got right to the adventure.

I remember watching my friend play after he got it and you can't really take turns at that game so I just had to watch. I kept yelling at him to burn the bushes because there are probably all kinds of loot behind them and he refused for weeks. I was right dammit

My roommate flunked out because he could not stop playing Battlefield 1942. Literally 20 hours a day. He was from Palos Verdes Estates so I guess he was not actually wasting his own money.

We played The New Tetris, Mario Kart, Goldeneye and Perfect Dark an insane amount.

I can think of a couple people from my dorm floor freshmen year that either flunked out, or nearly flunked out because they were obsessed with video games. Funny how some kids just can't manage that new found freedom.

Junior year of college we had a house right in the dead center of campus, an enormously heavy 31" Hitachi CRT, and a shiny new copy of Goldeneye. Me and my gaming buddy played 2v2 matches about 14 hours a day against all comers because groups were always passing by our spot and stopped in for a beer or a smoke or just a game. New players used to come in all smug and demand we play golden gun against our very strong recommendations not to. They only did that one time though.

My college friend Ryan was the one that had all the game systems so we'd go to his dorm and play stuff on the PS1 or Sega Saturn. The joke became when we'd go to Media Olay or Suncoast Video if we saw a game or movie we'd say "Ryan, you should buy that." Then he would. The funniest thing was we were playing Marvel Vs. Capcom on his Sega Saturn and our friend Terrance came in. Seeing that we were playing he put a quarter on the Saturn to signify he was next.
