I do. Simply my way of saying that games don't need legacy controls.

I do have a story where I did an exchange borrowing with a friend in middle school. My Shining Force 2 for his Shining in the Darkness (not the best borrowing deal, I know), and it took FOREVER for him to get it back to me. He kept "forgetting" and one time when I went to meet him at his locker after the final bell rang, I swear he ran and vanished in the crowd of people in the hall cause he knew what I wanted, and didn't have it to give back to me. Well I did finally get it back, but he threw away the original packaging (the cardboard "case") in exchange for a generic, yet sturdier hard shell case that most Genesis games used. It kinda irked me that he did that without asking me. But at that point I was just happy to have the game back. |
I remember being completely immersed in Call of Duty 2 and Dead Rising when my girlfriend and I started having problems in our relationship. One of the last things she did at my apartment before we broke up was play Bejeweled 2 Deluxe on Live Arcade. I have since deleted it from the HDD; I never even got an Achievement and at that period of time I hadn't touched my Xbox 360 for months. We played Final Fantasy IV (from FF Chronicles) together for months, but that isn't so much a bad memory as it stirs up sadness for me every now and then.
In 7th grade, someone made off with my copy of WCW vs. NWO: World Tour for the N64. Towards the end of that year, the teacher had allowed for us to have N64 multiplayer sessions; GoldenEye was a big hit, natch. I lent my copy to someone only for someone else to take it. The incident still serves as a reminder of how much I hated junior high. I don't hold grudges, but I remember being pissed off to no end when I got back my copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 after lending it to someone only to find every save file (all of them with every discovered Chaos Emerald) deleted. I redid it all eventually, but I don't understand why anyone has to do something like that. |
There was this one time, when I was playing Rogue back in the day when I made it to level 20.
Then I died. Yeah, that sucked. |
In high school I lent a friend the GunGrave game because he was a huge trigun fan because I told him the game was stylized by Nightow. I gave it to him and let him keep it for a week or two and he liked it and we had something to talk about for a while. Come up about three weeks later I asked for it back and he said he left it at a friends house. I'm like ok, that's an honest mistake. A month later he still didn't have it and I'm like WTF. He said he was going to buy me another one even though it was kinda cheap, it's a little difficult to find in that town. I eventually had to buy another copy even though I had beaten everything in that game I still loved it and wanted to keep it. I still have a grudge against him but as it turns out he "lost" a lot of other things that other friends of mine lent him.
