Have you guys ever played this game.

>> No.926421

Not as much as it played me.

>> No.926426

oh man it was fucking hard.

>> No.926446

You don'y play Ghosts and Goblins. You endure it, and if you are hardcore enough, you survive it.

>> No.926451

I prefer Ghouls n' Ghosts. Goblins is more challenging, but the level design is very plain and uninteresting so I have a hard time motivating myself to keep working on that 1CC.

>> No.926484

Finished it once. It was hard as shit, but oh boy beating it felt good. And yes I cleared it, which means I played through all of it twice, to get the good ending.

Absolutely love it. Beat the whole series every year on Halloween.

>> No.926618

it's one of my favorites

the difficulty is the fun of it

even after losing, i still have fun cause i get to play the level again and choose alternative strategies to get through.

it makes you a better player, and keeps you from pitching bitch fits when you lose at other games. cause then you can think to yourself, "at least it's not ghosts and goblins."

>hard game and because of that it is awsome.
I really hate this mentality and that it's taking over the retro gaming community to be honest, games should not be considered great just because they are hard. Not saying that Ghosts n goblins isn't a good game though.

>> No.926653

>>926649
in GnG's case, the difficulty is part of the fun. i don't think he meant that only hard games are fun.

I completed both Ghouls'n Ghosts & Ghosts'n Goblins when I was stuck with my parents with a toaster. Ghouls was pretty great, but Goblins was just plain bullshit at times like the randomly spawning imps and gargoyles right beside the stairs in the final tower.

I tried Super Ghouls'n Ghosts afterwards but the pace is slow as fuck, no unlimited continues and once again you can attack only left or right.

If you keep grabbing moneybags, you should never run out of continues.

Ghosts N Goblins is my favorite video game series of all time.

exactly. I was always maxing out the continue counter, even after using one within the next I'd have it back at 8. only one I played is SGnG, though.

The western names for the games in thes eries are sort of ridiculous. I could never remember which is Ghouls or Ghosts or what.

Maybe we should start calling the games Makaimura. Even in nip, it's easier to remember and spell corretly than Ghouls'n'Ghosts and w/e.

Makaimura
Daimakaimura
Chomakaimura (SNES)
and Gokumakaimura (PSP).

Pic unrelated.

Saturn, GBC and GBA are just ports. WonderSwan is a new game.

I just call them "the nes one", "the snes one" and "the genesis one", which we rarely talk about.

The what nes/snes/genesis one, though? I can't even remember how to spell Ghouls'n'Ghosts, which one is goblins, where do the apostrophes go, does it have spaces before or after n or both. I jsut can't.

Agreed. Maximo 1 captured the essence of NES hard and GnG series. Maximo 2 was completely different from the series as a whole. Should've been its own IP.
