Re: Games Completed 2019
26-02 Super Ghouls'n Ghosts (SNES) My attempt last week to finally get the 2 loop clear was destroyed by the second to last boss duo of Astaroth and Nebiroth, who proved to be a steep wall to climb when needing to use the goddess bracelet. But now... YATTA! Feels good to have finally persisted with...

Re: Our next podcast recording (28.2.19) - 359: Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
Completing a game in the Ghouls and Ghosts series has become something of a personal goal for me. Diabolically hard as a child, ridiculously tricky as an adolescent and soul destroyingly difficult as an adult. I have approached each one of these games with trepidation as to how far down the rabbit h...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Continuing my classic platformer playthroughs I’m tackling Donkey Kong country. All I can say is that this game has the most ridiculous difficulty spikes followed by some of the easiest levels in the game. Almost like a pat on the back after doing a tricky bit. The continue points in the levels aren...

Re: Games Completed 2019
Haha thanks very much. I played into the wee hours last night and made more progress than I thought possible. Today was the icing on the cake and it feels quite liberating.

Re: 359: Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
I’m going to a proper post on here I promise but I managed to get to the end in possibly the least heroic way by inching my way forward with save states after every possible action I did without dying. When I beat the final boss with a huge roar I realised I have to do the whole game again because I...

Re: 358: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
My experience with Captain Toad was overwhelming positive but part of me wished that the difficult curve wasn’t so much of a flat line. Until the last few levels I didn’t feel remotely challenged or taxed which isn’t necessarily a bad thing sometimes. However my favourite levels are the ones I faile...

Re: 359: Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
I might change my name to 1 million credit Simon. I just made it through the second raft level which I found stupidly hard until I realised you could move the raft left and right!! Anyway I’m making steady progress now I’m using save states and there seem to be tiny safe spaces for me to use them. L...

Re: Games Completed 2019
Yeah, no - that’s the bulk of the game then. I’m surprised if you feel short-changed in that case, I’ve completed it on both Wii U and Switch and been surprised by the amount of content on each occasion, especially for a ‘mid-price’ title! Not short changed as there’s a lot of game but more that my...

Re: Games Completed 2019
I’m intrigued. I finished the three episodes.
After that what I can see are some bonus levels from new super Mario bros which I unlocked so is there more?
Looking at a few websites it seems to list the bonus levels and mopping up the challenges

Re: 377: Prey (2006)
Prey was the first game I ever played on the Xbox 360 when I double dipped at about halfway through the last generation having been a PlayStation 3 owner first and foremost. At the time it seemed different and inventive without setting my world alight. Playing it in this day and age makes me glad th...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Ok, so in the Ace Combat series, do you get to take off and land? Or is it always 'already in the air' action. Taking off and landing is always my favorite part when flying planes in games. If I recall the first game I ever did this in was mace griffin: bounty hunter on ps2. I might try and dig it ...

Re: 362: Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
I remember the point in the Wolfenstein: The New Order where I felt this was something different, something special. It was very near the beginning when you are pinned to the floor and asked to choose which of your kinsman, your friends should die. I recall switching back and forth not being able to...

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread
Thank you for the suggestions. I haven’t heard of a lot of these which is pretty exciting in this day and age. Providing they aren’t prohibitively expensive I will have a pop at them.
