/vr/ - Retro Games

how do you beat these games? I'm used to the 1cc standard of arcade games (i.e can't use continues).

using save files and quicksave takes all the challenge out of shooters, they're fine for practice or your first run to learn the maps and secrets, but I wouldn't say you ''beat'' the shooter if you used save files beyond the initial stage check point.

I guess it doesn't work for modern shooters that have 10 hours of bloat via story and exploration though...
