Nugfish | 652 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Madden 2001 These controls felt the best so far, but I think this was also the Madden I played most as a child so it could just be me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Gensouki | 1,072 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Extreme-G2 is driving me crazy. At first it took a lot of time for me to even get used to the very different controls. It feels like I'm constantly oversteering plus it's very easy to bash against something and to turn around so that I'm driving in the wrong direction. Then there are the tracks which take a lot of time to get used to as well. On the one hand they sometimes have turns that can not be seen in advance or some passages where I don't even see where I'm going. On the other hand the tracks seem to slightly differ depending on the difficulty. This makes it extremely difficult to learn the tracks, if I have to constantly adjust to these small yet decisive changes. But after a while I got used to this and managed to beat most cups in all of the three difficulties. However, now that I'm trying Mirror Mode I can't seem to make any progress. All of a sudden the CPU opponents are extremely good, even on normal difficulty. Any minor mistake throws me back a few ranks and a big mistake can ruin the whole race. I now have trouble to win even a single race and have not made it past the second track. Is it just me or does the difficulty increase significantly? And to make matters even worse I seemingly have to be first in every race? Just how are you supposed to beat that? Can anyone maybe give some advice? Maybe I'm doing something wrong because this is just sooo much harder than the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Gensouki | 1,072 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 So I gave Extreme-G2 a few more tries. Luckily you can save your progress every 4 tracks and I eventually beat the first four thanks to clever use of weapons to demolish my toughest rivals. However the next group of 4 tracks was extremely difficult with tracks 7 and 8 being major roadblocks. It was there that I encountered strange glitches, like when I bumped into a wall, made a complete turn so that I drove into the wrong direction. And as I was trying to turn around again and to move on I suddenly fell through the walls into nothingness! This happened several times and can ruin an attempt since they count this as falling into a pit. Also, enemies proved to be very dangerous on some of these tracks with their weapons and would thus ruin many of my good runs. However, I just managed to get to the second save point. 8 tracks are done, but the worst is yet to come. Tracks 11 and 12 were incredibly difficult even on normal difficulty, i.e. I am not looking forward to trying them here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Gensouki | 1,072 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Wow, I actually did it! I beat Extreme-G2 and got Natasha Vert as a character. I beat the four remaining tracks surprisingly quickly. The first of these four was very challenging at first and the third one relied quite a bit on luck since it was easy to fall into a pit. The final track should have been the most difficult one, but I actually managed to beat this one on my first try! This is because I found a shortcut during one of my previous attempts at other cups. This track has you jump over a huge lava pit and then race along a very narrow path until you arrive at some kind of turning circle. You would usually use this to go back and use full speed to jump over the lava pit again, but this time in another direction to continue on the track (don't know if this description makes sense, if not, sorry). What I did however was to immediately stop after the first jump, turn around and use the turbo boost to make the second jump without having to drive around the turning circle. This saves a lot of time and prevents that you get into the crossfire of the other CPU players which would be extremely deadly. Anyway, I did it and I'm quite happy. I don't think I wil unlock the other characters as this was nerve-wracking as is. I think as my next game I might try to actually beat Turok 1, which I have never done so far. But I don't know if I can do it, so if anyody else wants to tackle this game... If not, then it will probably take quite some time for me to do it. I wish I had Hexen or Doom 64 though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nugfish | 652 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Life's been extremely busy the last couple weeks, and is just starting to slow down. I am probably past the half-way mark on DK64 and it has been a blast - I can't get myself to just power through it like all the other games I have completed so far. I don't want it to end...There will definitely be over 14 hours in it once I'm finished. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
