same kinda thing with me, i couldnt beat starfox64 at all when i was a kid

i bought a 3ds and bought starfox when it came out, i beat it in 1 sitting, only took like an hour or so - it is infact a very short game

it is 100%ing it that takes time

did you or anyone in here actually beat it to the point where you get to run in mutliplayer mode? i can't remember exactly what you had to do to unlock it, but it was something BRUTAL

>In order to unlock this mode you need to unlock Expert Mode by obtaining every medal from each level. Once that is done you need to play Expert Mode and get ONE of the two medals on Venom, I suggest the top route in which you fight team Star Wolf.

I must have been a pretty stupid kid, I guess I thought the other planets were ornamental or something. Just imagine my face when getting the proper ending on Corneria for the first time.

I'll never forget it... "we need you help, star fox!"

Was voice acting really so rare at that time?

Not /vr/, but I enjoy finding an interesting weapon in TF2 and deciding that I WILL get good at this thing dammit. I did it with the Flying Guillotine and lately have been trolling as a competent battlemedic with the Crusader's Crossbow.

I like playing support classes, makes me feel like I'm actually contributing to the team rather than just running about getting kills.

When I could get past this guy. When I was a kid and played this game for the first time, I could NOT get past this one guy no matter how hard I tried. A couple months ago I started emulating the game and kicked his ass no problem. Yes, I just beat Chrono Trigger a few months ago despite owning it as a child.

Mega Man 2
those one-eyed jumping machines gave me nightmares
the lazerbeam and pumping music drenched me in adrenalin induced cold sweat and everything else made me rage my fucking throat out
nowadays it's just so smart and logical and hnngh
just wish my dad wouldve actually given some pointers back then instead of gulping my tears, damn troll.
