If you want to go for it feel free, but figure you might want to narrow the choices down a bit. Nah, I saw you mentioned that a while ago, so keep jammin on it. I may do one of the MMC1 games, since they are pretty clunky and take a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaryice | 603 Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 Untouchables done. Had some trouble with the sniper shot a few weeks ago, went back to it tonight and got it first time. Yeah. Easy game other than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaryice | 603 Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 Pinball is done. I got 150,000 points for the flippers to disappear and reappear (the condition is listed at 200k, but that's a mistake that people have pointed out before and I never updated). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see myself doing Romance 1 again because I like the setting, but I'm never gonna touch an NES Nobunaga game again. They're both pretty blah IMO.

Daniel_Doyce | 477 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Hillsfar is done. I'm surprised this one has 4 pain points, since it's wayyy easier than the 2 remaining AD&D games. I'll take it, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Morbis | 2,096 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Tecmo Baseball is done; they mounted a late comeback in the "Final Game" with their shitty auto-homerun rubberbanding, but I held on for the win. Terrible A.I. and poor base-running controls make this a baseball game I won't be returning to any time soon... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually liked it enough to do all four endings, but not enough to want to play it again after accomplishing that lol. It's not a good game, but it's also not terribly difficult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Questionable controls (select button?!), hit boxes, and the weapon downgrades with every hit taken sink what would otherwise be a solid B-B+ 8-bit beat 'em up. I'm thinking it's time for my annual run at Cowboy Kid, if I can find my personal maps of the last stage.

I just finished up a guitar lesson and gonna go back to work on it soon. Thank god this one has a password feature. Cowboy Kid was also on my list but it's been so long since I played it and I remember it took quite a while, so go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaryice | 603 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) Nice to see us hit 400 today. Bump 'n Jump is a nice one to have out of the way, thanks to mbd. I think I'm going to try to beat Rambo, which is one of the few games on the NES that I haven't beat that I'm interested in. So far, everything I've beaten, I've done before in previous years. Bucky O'Hare is another one I'd like to get to someday.

PII | 1,916 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 INFILTRATOR is done. Landing the plane in Top gun is Child's Play. Landing this ƒµçk¡n9 Chopper is something else. For a while I felt like I'd somehow unlearned how to do it. It's like, once you know exactly what to do/not do, you still end up falling out of the sky because you can't take too much time but you also have to make the final motions with care just the same... Anyway, all 3 Missions are Complete and somehow, I still like this game.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitarzombie | 929 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Surprisingly finished off Toxic Crusaders. I forgot that you don't get a password for the last level (as I died at the first boss). I watched a speed run and learned yeah, no password. But for the final boss fight, I saw the guy just stood slightly under the boss and rapidly punched. So I thought I'd give it a shot. The last level isn't so hard but its just getting thru all those stages with 3 lives. I got to the bosses, beat em in one try. That rapid punch strat worked!

So far, everything I've beaten, I've done before in previous years. Bucky O'Hare is another one I'd like to get to someday. I think you'll find both of those doable at your skill level. There are good maps for Rambo online. Give yourself 2-4 hours, and I bet you can beat it in one sitting. Remember that the enemies that drop items do so roughly 100% of the time. That makes farming for health and high-end ammo very manageable. Kill the gorilla, take his medicine, leave the screen, come straight back, and he's respawned. Rinse and repeat for 3-4 minutes and you have a full supply. Bucky O'Hare is a lot of fun. It's brutal, but it has infinite continues (including at mid-level checkpoints) and a good password system. Be patient, and you can brute-force your way through it. Also, thanks for the stats. I've got more than 7000 lifetime points now. Neat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
