Well I beat Contra: Shattered Solider. Man, that game was really hard even on Easy. I had 80+ continues left when I beat the final boss but I beat him/it on my last man. The 5th level had a remix of the original Contra stage 1 music and even had the fort with the guns shotting at you.
I’ve beaten two Mavericks on X7. So far the Tunnel Base stage has the best 3D gameplay I’ve seen in the game. The controls work well there and busting up bots in the Ride Armor was tight. The Cyber Field level…was Capcom drunk when they thought that up? The stage already looks weird but you get turned upside down with inverted controls. Talk about annoying. Zero has the best voice in the game. My boy X sounds like a pansy.:bluu: At least I unliked X (took finding 64 reploids to do it) and got his boot parts.
Started Mega Man Zero early this morning in the AM. Turns out Zero spent a year on the run from Neo Arcadia after defeating Copy X in the first MMZ. He looked pretty ticked when he got to the new resistance base. “We spent so much time looking for you, Zero!” said Ceil. If I were Zero, I would have killed all those mothers, took the new weapons and said “Screw all of you.”:mad: Speaking of weapons, Zero has some tight new weapons in Z2. Like the spear hook thing that lets you graple on to things and swing across gaps. Then there’s the charging shield that can be thrown and returns to you.
I just started to play Metal Arms: A Glitch in the System and I just have to say, this game is fucking HARD!!! I’m playing normal mode right now and like two stages past the first boss. I have to fight this area filled with these gad damn Zombie bots and they take like three grenades and a couple of rockets to kill, it doesn’t help that they’re just as quick as I am either. :mad:
The game is pretty cool, has great amounts of humor, decent controls and is a lot of fun but the difficulty factor is way too high and there’s some major collsion problems in the game. It’s almost as good as Ratchet & Clank. Almost.
chaos legion is pretty bad ass. it’s like devil may cry and jojo’s bizzarre adventure mixed somehow. very nice game play you use demon legions like you would use stands in jo jo’s… so far up to level 8 been playing for about 5 hours leveling up and so forth. really cool
I’ve already beaten two missions today in Mega Man Zero 2. The bosses have sweet designs (far better than the laughable crap in X7 that is ahem, Tornado Tonion.:lol:) After beating the first mission I came across X or his elf form, whatever form he has in the Zero games. Too bad he isn’t playable. Sigh. So far MMZ2 is pretty sweet and challenging. This one level had me using my grapling hook to swing over spike pits and ice platforms.
While I wait for Astro Boy: Omega Factor and Street Fighter Anniversary Collection to release I’m going to play a TON of games. I’m gonna get back into VF4: Evo (bump SCII. THIS is the best 3D fighter.) Start Advance Wars, play Final Fantasy II on FF Origins, and who knows what else.
And yes, Axl does sound like he’s in a boy’s choir when he croaks.
One of my wishes for my Neo Geo AES collection has just been fulfilled! To get a genuine King of Fighters cartridge, particularly anything from 97 to the most recent, manufactured by SNK themselves in my shelf. No ports done by different companies, the REAL DEAL.
I won King of Fighters 2001 off Ebay yesterday.
Hopefully soon I can declare war in my bedroom in a Metal Slug.
I know i’ve said this before, but you will NOT be disappointed with Astro Boy: Omega Force. Great game with great replay value and challenging but not impossible.
I started FFII on FF Origins tonight. The way you build up your party members is gonna take some getting used to. I’ve already been to a few towns and have this dude named Mindu in my party. He has top tier magic skills for being so early in the game. Good thing I have my trusty FFO Brady Strategy Guide for this one.
I got back into VF4: Evo today as I said I would. Pai is still the bomb and I finally completed 1 of 4 Quest Orders to enter one of the tourneys I haven’t been able to get into. The competition is getting tougher and tougher but beating human AI based fighters never gets old.
Time for some DBZ: SW A.K.A. THE best DBZ game of all time. I’m out.
Shoot I have a copy of FF2 on my 8-bit NES. I still don’t understand how to do it. I fight a dozen battles while my characters are on their knees in low HP status, and I still don’t see a text box with “HP” among Japanese hiragana. I don’t know what the fuck Nasir Gebelli (the man who came up with this gay ass level building system) was thinking.
The level-up system in FF2j is similar to those in SaGa games, meaning the stat-ups you get are random, though you can control your stat increases somewhat. Use a certain weapon, the weapon level goes up, use magic, your INT and MP goes up, etc, so the only thing I can advise is to keep fighting and you’ll hopefully get the increase you want.
Final Fantasy II (FF Origins)-Well I got some of my party members stats to increase and Firion even got a 20 HP boost. (BTW Famicom, I’ve actually heard the NES verison music of FFII’s battle theme. Good stuff. :D). It could take me a while to beat this game but my friend beat it so I can too. I feel so sorry for my party members. At the start of the game the empire offed their parents and nearly killed them. Lousy mothers…:mad:
Mega Man Zero 2-It is official: The Zero series rocks! Although some stages seem on the short side, the game has lots of action and a topnotch musical score just like the first game. Today I found a Sub-Tank!:eek: An actual Sub-Tank! I thought my only means of recovery in boss fights would be cyber elves but I guess not. One cyber elf even increased my life bar by like 4 pegs of energy. Too bad a many of them need to be feed first.:bluu: I still can’t beat Phoenix Magnion!!! Dude moves around so fast he’d make Quick Man look like a turtle.:mad: If I can gain more energy or get some more recovery cyber elves, I may have more of a chance. Even with the thunder chip, he’s still tough and I don’t wanna have to use my one cyber elf that takes away 50% of a bosse’s energy.
Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors-Gotenks is king in this game. At LV1 all I did was use one of my special huge ki beam attacks and LV1 Vegeta bit the dust. In less than 6 seconds the fight was over before it even started. Now why isn’t LV3 Mystic Gohan as stronger if not stronger than this guy? Oh well, at least he has some endurance. However, I still like LV 1-2 Gohan better. Gohan=most powerful 9 y/o warrior alive. Blowing up the planet with Frieza for a victory never gets old.
Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution-I’m playing as Pai in Quest mode. I’ve named her SPIDEYGOKU. Her record is 141/6. I actually fought one guy who had a record of like 1230/1217. I was liked “WHOA!” I’m getting closer to being able to enter the tourney I’ve been trying to get into for so long. When I play VF4: Evo, I feel like I’m actually at the arcades because the Quest mode does such an excellent job of emulating the experience. Not since the days of Street Fighter II have I been this excited about a fighting game. Anyone else still playing VF4: Evo? If so, who is your fav fighter? Pai and Kage own for me.
Well I’m out. Whew, long post. I feel like Million typing my progress on PSO =)
I’ve been way too addicted to the SNES Monopoly game. Shit is just too good. The A.I. is solid and it’s crazy with 8 players.
Here’s an attachment of me pimping the entire game board and eleminating all seven players but one. Owned every single deed and bought every single house and hotel available.
Today, I was out driving the taxi cab and dropped a Spanish gal off at a Latin convience store where she worked. I saw a Street Fighter cabinet in the laundormat next store and ran in and peeped it out. Turned out to be an O.G. Street Fighter, hadn’t seen one of those in probably 8 years. If I am out working tommorrow I will be stopping by there to play it, was too busy today. Hope the hurricane doesn’t hit…
I’ve really been into DBZ: SW as of late, getting in games. I’ve gotten much better with Gotenks that I always win my fights before my fusion time expires. I owned LV1 Vegeta with just a huge blast of ki.
So far MMZ2 is pretty sweet and challenging. This one level had me using my grapling hook to swing over spike pits and ice platforms.
Oh well, at least he has some endurance. However, I still like LV 1-2 Gohan better. Gohan=most powerful 9 y/o warrior alive. Blowing up the planet with Frieza for a victory never gets old.
