I remember that Friday the 13th game as being kind of weird. Ill have to think for a while to single it down to one moment. One thing though i wonder how much time i have played games total. I know its way too much but oh well its been fun.
Dam! How could anyone beat TMNT for nes? I spent hours on that game! I recently played it with my emulator I installed on my cpu here at work and I think the furthest I got was the airport. The bad thing was I did that using the save function on the emulator, you can just save it wherever you want at any time. Without that the furthest I remember making it was the part with the van. That was one of my all time favorites, but was definitely one of the hardest games I've ever played. Other moments: Beating Final Fantasy 1 with 4 white mages. Beating Final Fantasy 2 with everyone at lvl 99, and even though I've spent days trying I've never got the pink tail/glass sword. Final Fantasy 3 might be my favorite game of all time, I think I've done everything you can on there. Pugs
this one is easy. I played a basketbal game(do not know wich one, it was on the Nintendo64) against a friend, he is a laker fan. I was 2 points behind with just 1,4 seconds remaining. I Pas the bal to AIR BULL at halfcourt, and he hits the game winning 3 pointer from Halfcourt. always great to beat the lakers
You guys seriously couldn't beat TMNT for the NES? Rookies. I mean, it was difficult, but far from impossible. I have beaten it multiple times. The hardest part is the final corridor leading up to Shredder, with all the floating laser dudes. As for Shredder, it's best to use Donatello and poke him from below when he is above you.
do arcade games count? i used to be able to flip the score on pacman, asteroids and stargate at will. a quarter went a long way back then, am i old?
Agree with fade, TMNT wasn't that tough. And Donatello had the best weapon for pretty much any big battle. Alternated between him and Leonardo for most of the game, the range on the other's weapons just wasn't enough. If you want a hard, annoying game, try Ghosts and Goblins on the NES. Or E.T. on the Atari.
**** yeah, the last NBA game for Sega Genesis before they shifted to the "canted" perspective (court angled at 45 degrees), Bullard was money. He probably averaged about 80 points a game when I played. Just came down, set up at the three point line lined up with the elbow of the lane, and fired away.
Finally finishing "Un-Real Tournament" in the in-human level...just did it last week and my last one was the one-on-one combat...very nice...yeah for me... Of course, back in the day, to finish Kid Iccarus on my Nintendo rocked as well...
I remember playing 'Lakers vs. Celtics' on the Sega Genesis. For those that never played it, it only had the previous year's playoff teams on it and each team's star player and a special move (Jordan had his signature free throw line dunk, Barkly on the 76ers with his two-handed 'Gorilla Dunk', ect.) My brother and I would always play this against each other and I ALWAYS picked the Suns. There was one hidden spot on each side of the court where, if I hit the shoot button, Tom Chambers would dunk from the 3pt line. UNSTOPPABLE! That was multiple great moments seeing his frustrating look on his face for whole games knowing he can't beat me with that move.
Loved that game. Solved it many times. Loved the coin-op as well, and solved it and its sister game - Ghouls n' Ghosts. -- droxford
Being one of the first to learn how to transport on Street Fighter 2.(the arcade) Just hold down the strongest punch and kick buttons for 3 seconds and when you let go you transport to the other side of the screen. Learning you can make every 3pt on Double Dribble NES as long as you were standing on a black dot on the court Playing Jungle Hunt (arcade) I never beat it but I loved playing it.
I had a friend figure this one out and me and my other friends never could. He did some sort of fade away jumper to make the 3's. He was making 3's with the likes of Dikembe Mutombo and Shaquille O'Neal.
TMNT was awesome. If you did the up-up-down-down... code right after you beat Shredder, the ending had you getting it on with April. Sweet.
reading this thread brings a couple a videos I saw on the web recently of video game feats. Super Mario 3(the guy has the whole video of him beating the game in 11 min!!) OMG! tetris this guy is good
I'd seen that Mario Bros video before. The 11 minutes or whatever is a distant second to his timing on those cannonballs, he must have practiced for days to get everything every possible 1up.
yeah what he accompolishes in those levels is quite amazing. i actually think he could have had more men if he had stayed with the leaf instead of getting the flower
i can't believe how long i played that freaking stupid little game because of my undying love for the ninja turtles. i could never get past that sewer level where you have to swim and avoid the electric seaweed or whatever it was. how you got that far is crazy! mainly i remember how awesome the arcade game was and i used to spend so much time playing it at chuck e cheeses that my mom promised me she'd buy it if it came out for the nintendo. of course tmnt 2 was the arcade game and she bought it for me the day it came out and i remember bringing the instruction booklet to school and all the kids were like whoa. i was never a big metroid fan but my friend down the street always played the first one and super metroid at my house. the funny thing is i never played through the levels but he couldn't beat any of the bosses so he'd always give me the controller and i'd pass them then he'd continue. it was pretty funny. there's not any great memories of games i have played recently, my attention span is way way shorter, but i did get 26 straight kills and didn't die in team slayer on halo 2 the other day. i'm probably about an average player so i was pretty proud of myself.
I scored 356,000 on the original Pacman back in the day. It was hectic as hell, but my high score was on the machine for months. I was "the man". Back then I was "Rad".
