Share your deepest, darkest vidya secrets /vr/.

I actually liked Superman 64 when I was a kid. I even rented it more then once but could never get past this level;

After that I was like, "Fuck it." and all was well.

Most people who know me consider me to be great at Starcraft because of how much I used to play, and I never say anything to dispirit that idea.

The truth is that I'm top 5 wood league at best, I just like building towns and armies and goofing around or staging scenarios. Only played UMS on battle.net and always used cheats in single player.

I love this Let's Play. Is there any other Let's Play in existence of this quality? I'd love to see it. This dude knows this game in and out and gives tons of interesting trivia. He even interviews one of the developers and discusses other superman games.

Why can't all Let's Plays be like this? Anyway, I recommend these videos. And this is coming from a guy who usually hates Let's Plays

I never played Shining Force as a kid because Simone weirded me out. Something about a little elf girl looking up at me over a book as big as her in a dark room with that weird music box-esque tune. Looking back, since I was around six and girls were icky, it probably made me uncomfortable because I thought she was cute.
Oh my god. She was my first vidya crush and I never even realized it until today. Oh my god.

Ghoul Patrol is not bad, it is just short and it had the luck of being a sequel to a cult game.

Resident Evil Survivor was a nice experiment and it is as good as Gaiden. It is refreshing to play compared to what Capcom did to RE after 4, not counting the cool remakes.

Conker's Bad Fur Day got a partial one. Don't count on it being finished though it hasn't been updated for a while. They should've gotten someone else to play the game for them too.

The first game I remember a kid thinking it was fucking awful, even to my "I play anything that I get because I'm poor and don't have a lot of shit left to play in the '90s" is Kid Kool. Thank god the game was just in a 6 in 1 cart with better games to play instead

Nah Gaiden's pretty bad barring the combat, and even then it could be annoying at times. Music was absolutely atrocious too. Pretty much any RE game that isn't canon is shit anyway.

Survivor retained some the atmosphere of the previous games as well as having a pretty good OST. It's only crime was not having proper Guncon support in the US thanks to Columbine.

>>	Anonymous Sun Jul 27 20:21:41 2014 No.1811462 >>1811332 How is that even possible? Didn't you just try moving your character against any wall until he goes out of the door tile?
