I do keep trying it though every now and then and one day I might get into it. I'm planning on playing through IV, V and VI on my PSP once I go back to getting the train to work so that might be the time I enjoy it. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? ![]() ![]() |

I'm not going to be at work much tomorrow so I posted mine a bit early, sorry.

I played a game very similar to NHL 94 when I was little. Except that I just checked and it's only called NHL hockey - presumably the first NHL game. It still brought back a lot of memories.

I don't think anyone will really mind, Shin. I only really played Ultima 8 and 9. And by play I mean just fuck around in 8 because 9 was awful. I really like the perspective in 8 and looking at screenshots of 7 kind of make me queasy. Killing children and hiding in stores to rob them after hours were great joys of mine. Also the storage system was hilarious.

I have two distinct memories associated with Ultima VII: performing some kind of boot disk voodoo to get it working on my 486 (something to do with extended memory, I think?), and stealing a sextant from a poor old blind woman who trusted me to leave money on the counter.
Sadly, my computer was just too unstable to finish the game on my own, and I saw most of the game by watching over my friend's shoulder. A world full of persistent items that stay where you drop them seems like small potatoes these days, but it blew my mind back then.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Ultima VII came out at that hilarious time for PC gaming where you needed a seperate boot disk for each game and had to be a master of stripping every single non-essential item out of your config.sys and autoexec.bat files to get anything to run. Half the games needed EMA memory, half XMA and squeezing every last drop out of the 4mb you had installed was a real skill. I also remember not being able to play Commander Keane anymore when I upgraded to a 486DX2 as it ran too fast to be playable. ![]() What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? ![]() ![]() |
God, I just hope my photobucket bandwidth HOLDS. I didn't want to throw in BIG images but rather small sprites to act as urls to those slight bigger images to save that thread.
Anyway... I wish to thank Paco for the encouragement (you gave me the idea by the way) and Shin for proofreading it for me and uploading the mp3. Colonel Skills also for his words of encouragement too. SailorDaravon did absolutely nothing for me. Maybe he listened to my griping really. But NOTHING useful ever came from that dude. Anyway, hope you guys enjoy. Pardon my writing... its not exactly my strongest suit. EDIT: Um about that images and loading times, I have an idea? How about if um... after ONE week has passed, those images can be taken down or something? Maybe a day or two? Just an idea. FELIPE NO |
I could always go through and spoiler the images on the older posts if people are struggling to load the page. It loads ok on my phone though (Phones are the new 56k don't you know) so I wouldn't really call it a problem yet.
Meia, your photobucket account should be fine. I host all my sigs on their and I've never once exceeded the bandwidth. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? ![]() ![]() |
Whatever, my article is pretty light. 143 kb total for the images and the two youtube videos don't do much damage until you actually play them.

Now if only I could finish Metroid Prime 2. Stupid Boost Ball boss. Then I could play MP3.

That's because you suck! I would have gone with Prime 1 personally because it was slightly less gimmicky, but the Trilogy as a whole is pretty good so THUMBS UP, DN.

One thing I was going back and forth about mentioning or leaving out is that there's apparently going to be a "New Control Play" editions of MP1 & 2. I decided to leave it out the review because it was only tagently related to MP3, but hey, maybe it'll make that one boss easier now.

I wonder how much that will put a damper on the sequence breaking possibilities of those two games, as many of the best tricks like Dash Jumping rely on the targeting mechanisms of the first two games. Course, a lot of stuff could still be done with alternate techniques like laddered bombs, but I would probably still expect some new figures for min times and percentages on the upcoming versions.

I had thought that the Wiimakes of the original MP games were going to be Japan only. Here's to hoping, though. I'd like to try playing through them with motion controls and such.

I remember when Corruption came out for the Wii and I went out and got it. Then I got here and found out that sprout hadn't really liked the game and I, for the life of me, have never been able to figure out what it was that he didn't like about it because it's a fucking fantastic game.
Great post on SMT, Tritoch! I never got around to finishing that game because I borrowed it and never played it since. Now I really want to finish it. SuperSonic also picked a great game to review. I would have taken Chrono Trigger myself because it's still my favorite RPG but I figured I'd stick with newer console games to give others the chance to review older games. Great job, guys! Keep 'em coming! Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I've always wanted to play DDS, but I could never find it around here and didn't feel like resorting to eBay. I'm sorely tempted now, though. I enjoyed all the other SMT games I've played so far, and your review makes this one look just as nice.
Quick question though: You said that the optional bosses give you items--like rings that carry over to DDS2--does that mean that there's a save-transfer feature kind of thing from DDS1 to 2? And does it net you anything else? There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Can net you a few things. Effects certain characters, your levels etc.

Infernal's review makes me want to play Chuck Rock for some reason.
Which reminds me that once again I forgot to nominate the Chuck Rock intro music for the BSC this year. Fucksocks. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? ![]() ![]() |
It's such a shame to see that the mighty genre of elephant games has degenerated to things like this.
