SpanishFly Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Final Fantasy Tactics Advance? I remember that...traded it for Advance Wars Dual Strike over on GameTZ or something...at least I THINK that's what happened to it. Also, as horrid as the voice acting in Resident Evil Director's Cut, I have to admit it's one of the reasons I'll probably never get rid of that game. Quote
Vivi22 Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 "Thou shalt not fling thy controller across the room, no matter how frustratingly difficult thy game might be" I have a friend who's gone through a headset and a mouse in the last few months violating that one. In fact, I started playing through Mario World with my fiancee again last night and violated it when I made a stupid mistake at the start of a level and died. It was nothing major, but I won't repeat what it was because frankly it's embarrassing for someone who's played the game an untold number of times in the last 16 years. I also did it a lot the last time I made a run at Mario the Lost Levels. That has to be one of the hardest fucking games ever made while still being beatable. Quote
Cerrax Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Forgive me Father Baer, for I have sinned.... I. Thou shalt not cheat. Heh, too many to count. II. Thou shalt not use player's guides or walkthroughs except as a last resort. Bought Chaos Legion and the strategy guide (honestly because I wanted the poster inside) but temptation got the best of me and I ended up pretty much studying the damn thing by level 4. III. Thou shalt not disrespect the system of another while secretly desiring it. Actually I don't think I've ever done this. I don't get too fanboy-ish really. IV. Thou shalt not play for someone who is taking a bathroom break. Not so much play as kill them off.... Halo 3 is my main offense of this V. Thou shalt not steal lives or items in a two-player game. I honestly try not to but instinct just tells me to grab it before its too late. Especially on levels where you can't control the scrolling. VI. Thou shalt finish each game that thee starteth. Oh man, just take a look at my Backloggery. Top Gun, Oblivion, Ace Combat, Half-Life 2..... VII. Thou shalt not fling thy controller across the room, no matter how frustratingly difficult thy game might be. Ninja Gaiden on XBox was the only game that I really got frustrated enough with to even contemplate this. But every time I'd wind up and prepare to launch the controller into the TV, I'd remember the $35 floating away and the $200 TV in a dumpster. That image was usually enough to stop me. VIII. Thou shalt watch quietly as others attempt the most simple and mundane levels, battles, or puzzles and not shout out the obvious method of completing them. I have to bite my tongue. HARD. Quote
Alexis Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Forgive me Father Baer, for I have sinned....IV. Thou shalt not play for someone who is taking a bathroom break. Not so much play as kill them off.... Halo 3 is my main offense of this Killing people off in Halo while they are away is pretty much the only way I can win. I should be ashamed of this, but I'm not. I suck at Halo enough that I think it's acceptable. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 VI. Thou shalt finish each game that thee starteth. Oh man, just take a look at my Backloggery. Top Gun, Oblivion, Ace Combat, HALF-LIFE 2 Woah, woah, woah! Isn't that considered an actual sin or something?! You need to fix this yesterday!!! Quote
RealFolkBlues Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I got to the end of Zelda II and didn't beat it. It, Four Swords, and the CD-I games are the only Zeldas I haven't beaten, and I have a triforce tattoo. In my defense, screw the last part of that game. Invisible eyeballs, lizardmen, and lava everywhere? SCREW THAT. FF related, finished the first disc of IX and just...lost my steam. Meh. I think there was another one, but I can't remember. Quote

Raziellink Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I hate Final Fantasy games. I hate Chrono Trigger. I also dislike Super Mario RPG. I hate Super Metroid. I have a copy of Shaq-Fu. Quote
Tex Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 He is honest and I respect that. If everyone thinks the same, then it is boring. Quote
FR Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 It's just a post goddamn. Back on topic: Never beat a sonic game. Never owned a sega/neo geo/playstation/NES console. Quote
Tex Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Never owned any console. I doubt anyone can beat that. Quote
Tex Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 If you are trying to say you never owned any console then you should include microsoft Xbox and beyond. Quote
FR Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I NEVER OWNED THE ORIGINAL NES AND PLAYSTATION CONSOLES. I OWN A PS2, PS3, XBOX, 360, SNES, AND N64. fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff Quote
Tex Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Wait, now I think I understand; did you think I was talking about you? Not really. I was talking about me. Quote
Nase Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I'm guilty of buying artsy games (Shadow of the Colossus comes to mind), praising them in front of friends, and then getting bored with them before even playing halfway through. Quote
reelmojo Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I've tried to beat Zelda OOT like three times but I keep getting bored at different spots. Once when I was barely an hour in, once inside Jabu Jabu, and then of course at the dreaded Water Temple. I had the Gamecube version and I traded it in because it was worth a lot of money. On the off chance that I ever feel like playing it again it emulates pretty much perfectly. Also, I tend to think anyone who argues that the PS3 is better than the 360 is absolutely ridiculous. But still, I'd like a PS3 for a Blu-Ray player, MGS4, and... well the fact that I can't think of a third reason kinda backs up my opinion on it. In the vein of Nasenmann's post, I can't beat Ico.

Red Shadow Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 damnit mojo jabu jabu and the water temple are my favorite temples how did you get bored with them Quote
glasfen Posted March 22, 2009 Author Posted March 22, 2009 I got to the end of Zelda II and didn't beat it... In my defense, screw the last part of that game. Invisible eyeballs, lizardmen, and lava everywhere? SCREW THAT. I despise all of those things. Especially the lizards chucking axes. Definitely cheated to get through that game. Never beat a sonic game. Likewise. I keep telling myself I will, but Robotnik thrashes me 80% of the time in level 1. I just can't hang onto those rings... Quote
Raziellink Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 What did you just say?!? Loving the cat image! XD But seriously, i played it, and replayed it...And i just didn't enjoy it. Which is weird, because i liked every other Metroid game i´ve played... Except Prime 2.... Quote
