And by my math, I've clinched my eighth straight Top-3 finish. I count 47/100 games that were also in the final 100 last year. Kinda figured it would be more.

I forget which one. Other people don't seem to have too much of a problem with it, though, so I must be doing something dumb. Other than that, it's not too bad. Good luck! I only messed around on the first stages last night and it seems pretty chill for a flight sim game. I'll keep alert for that mid game mission though.

Looks like it's time to kick it into high gear folks. There's absolutely nothing on the list that I've ever beaten before (as has been the case for a while) but I'm going to try to take a crack at a few games this weekend, then possibly start working on one of the Bases Loaded games next week. Anyone have an opinion about which (2 or 4) is any easier/more fun? I'm not the best at Baseball games, but I have a lot of free time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Gensouki | 1,073 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I just had something really weird happen to me while playing Thundercade. I've been trying to beat that one for the last three hours or so, because I constantly failed shortly before the finishing line. Then I finally gave the last shot to be boss and killed them, when a projectile from a randomly appearing helicopter hit me. For a moment I was crying out loud, but then I noticed that my victory still counted! I beat that boss on my last continue and last life and we both pretty much died at the same time, but it somehow still worked. I hope this still counts. If so, it would be my closest win this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made it to near the end of Kung Fu Heroes before but that game is just insanely hard. I finally gave up after two weeks of trying.

MagusSmurf | 577 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I can probably get through Shadow of the Ninja without too much problem but it sounded like someone was already working on that. I could burn a weekend now trying for Legacy of the Wizard or Destiny of an Emperor, though; they’re on my backlog anyways. If anyone’s currently going through either or planning to do so very soon, let me know and I’ll play the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Gensouki | 1,073 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Just beat Addams Family. This one is so frustrating with its wonky hit detection, awful ice level and some really unfair and cheap level design. Not sure, what or how much I can still contribute. We would have to beat more than 20 games or so until the 24th to beat the old record, which doesn't sound too bad, but when you're looking at what games are still left... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Gensouki | 1,073 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 And Super Spy Hunter is done. This was way more frustrating than I expected. The fifth level and the final boss rush were especially egregious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By doing this, you won't have to worry about your characters aging from staying at the inn too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
