You guys remember that the liar would always say he knew somebody that worked at blah blah as a blah?
Like an uncle or a cousin… That’s how he “knew” about these “exploits”?
my cousin letting me borrow Mario is Missing and swearing it was a good game
You can get Yoshi off the top of the castle and ride him in SM64.
Broke my heart when you really couldn’t :sad:
Okay, here’s another one I remember. EGM is known for their successful trolling, and this was one that got me back in the day. They hadsupposedly discovered a code for a hidden character in the Genesis version of Mortal Kombat: a kickboxer named Nimbus Terrafaux.
It required a code you had to put in whenever Reptile randomly appeared before a match. Problem was, the code was just long enough that no one could possibly input it before he jumped away. I tried forever to get this to work, even putting in the debug code to get Reptile to appear before every match, and it just never happened. It was only later that I realized the date of the mag: April '94. D’oh.
"Q: Does Guile have a gun in SF2??
A: A: Yes he absolutely does. I was one of the top Arcade players in New England for certain fighting games. I played n Boston’s Chinatown and learned from the Chinese. One day I saw my friend from the Arcade on TV testing games when I was channel surfing. When I saw him, I told him that I found out how he was so good at all games and new all of the secrets. He then started teaching me those secrets since I earned it by being very good at playing and since I was at the Arcade everyday. He showed me how to do Guile’s Handcuffs at the same time as showing me how to do Guile’s Gun. I only did the Handcuffs 2 or 3 times but I never could do the Gun. He was able to do the Handcuffs a few times when he was teaching it to me but even he couldn’t do the Gun. One day while at the Boy’s and Girls Club during the time when everyone went up stairs to play Basketball, I was left alone with no one to play against and no money to play with. I just stared at the computer playing itself while being bored. All of the sudden Guile killed Blanka by doing his backhand normal move at long range. The best part is that the screen froze to display the high scores so I got a chance to see how Guile killed Blanka in two hits from 100% health. Frozen in the air were 2 missed (yellow) bullets. They missed because the other 2 or 3 hit Blanka and killed him making him fall under those that there frozen in the air by the high score screen. I don’t know if it matters but Guile was on his own stage fighting Blanka. When I realized what I saw and had absolute evidence to prove, I rand franticly to find anyone of the first and second floor so that I could show them before the screen unfroze. The only person around was the desk lady but she was too far and won’t care anyway. I thought that I had finally found a way to get people to stop laughing at me about this but the evidence is gone. I think that I’ll start to pursue proving this again and this post is the first step. I may have to contact Capcom or meet them at a Q&A or something. The point is, Guile has a gun and the inputs are similar to his Ultra #2 in SSF4 if not identical."
jesus christ. this guy is the worst kind of SCUM
Me and my friends got hyped when we heard the rumors that X-men Arcade Game was getting a home port. We didn’t even care if it wasn’t gonna be on that badass 6-player machine or whatever, we just wanted to have at home so we argue who can be Wolverine.
So true. Worse, they never seem able to reach this person when you call them on their lie. Here’s another lie…
Oldschool sports games play fairly. If a football game didn’t want you to win, you can forget about catching the ball. You could catch AIDS having sex with a garbage bag faster than you will that next pass.

Kinda like how MK wouldnt let u throw the AI. Even if u hit em with a spear or freeze, they would just counter throw you
kingdom hearts being good.
It’s on the PS1 disc, but it was never planned by Iga and friends, because there’s no Japanese track corresponding with it.

“ARCADE PERFECT”
It has been a lie for awhile but Colors basically killed that for the time being. Generations remains to be seen.
I overheard some guy at work saying Sony owned Metal Gear Solid and Nintendo payed them a lot of money to put him in Brawl. lol
The dumbass then went on to say that Nintendo bought Sega and that’s how they were able to put Sonic in Brawl…I somehow feel sorry for him.
Ah, Midway’s famous rubberband AI. The designers intentionally made them assholes if you started to get a big lead. I’m talking making halfcourt shots like it was nothing in NBA Jam, stealing your shit instantly, catching stupid ass passes in NFL Blitz, the fucking works.
man, this here hurts me. I want ZOE3 more than I want to bang a chick name zoe 3 times. Just do me a favor Hideo. Make it epic. Make me FEEL it.
-Starhammer-
OH MY FUCKING GOD!!! :rock: 
That reminds me of another great lie that is DIRECTLY concerning Midway games.
“Crusin series is a group of racing games.” BOO’SHYT!!! Those damn things are fighters!! You mark my words!! They are some of the toughest fighters EVER. You don’t win by outrunning the others, you win when you cross the finish line first. You can only do that if you OUTFIGHT the other cars. you can’t outrun them. They’ll simply run you down. They’ll P.I.T. you quicker than a car chase on an episode of COPS. You get them before they get you. It’s that simple. Shove a bitch down the stairs? No. You shove them into oncoming traffic. You shove them into each other. You make them swap paint with that wall, tree, or whatever. You see a cliff? Your mission is to put them at the BOTTOM of it. There is no other way. Quit whining and DO IT!!!

I’ve gone on long tirades in the official Call of Duty threads about my hatred of deathstreaks, which are returning to MW3 from MW2. But I just find it funny how blatant the lie is right here. Go to around 9:40 of this video.
[media=youtube]gTxAwlmlRkM[/media]
Notice how “no Last Stand” gets the biggest crowd cheer. Now know that two of the death streaks are:
Final Stand, which is Last Stand, only you can use your primary weapon instead of a pistol and you can get up if you stay alive long enough.
Dead Man’s Hand, which is allegedly Last Stand, only you have C4 in your hand and can blow it up if you’re not shot down quick enough.
Despite my general anger at deathstreaks, I can’t help but laugh when I watch that video. Such bullshit.
Y’know, that’s why I stopped playing the exaggerated sports games (*the crazy stuff were the only kind of sports games worth playing in the first place, imo. Realism = BORING… but of course that’s just me.)…since it seemed those games would have cheating AI more often than other genres. At a certain point in Blitz, the cpu would just decide that EVERY pass you attempt results in “INTERCEPTION!”…like 99% of the goddamn time…and any time a cpu character happens to cough on your character that has the ball: “FUMBLE!” Yeah, sure. I hate cheating AI bullshit…when the game itself starts breaking its own rules just to keep you from winning…that really strikes a nerve with me, and it becomes tough to resist that urge to smash and break things.
Random lie: Left 4 Dead 2’s “Realism” mode + Expert difficulty being possible. The odd thing is that I still enjoy that franchise, despite how outrageously hard the games are on such settings… I still laugh and have a good time (in between the frustration and yelling). I seriously have no hope of ever beating even 1 of the campaigns on Expert + Realism mode.
