Bro hated going through that shyt just to find one part lol

 

[ColdSlither]

This was actually easy. I just kept fukking up until the Colonel told me what to do. I even figured out Meryl. But I did kinda cheat because I was the only one with a Playstation, so my friends would come over to watch me play. So I had like four heads thinking about shyt.

The game that fukked me up though, for a good two years, was X-Men for the Genesis. Before you get to the last stage, Asteroid M, you're back in the danger room in front of the computer, and the shyt says "Reset The Computer." What the fukk you mean reset the computer. I'm punching around and everything thinking I gotta hit something. Two years! Two fukking years!!!

So I'm home for a snow day one day. Haven't touched X-Men in forever. fukk that game. But I had no other new games. I play the shyt and get near the end. "Reset The Computer." I'm bored, so fukk it, I'll give the game another play through and press reset. All these 0100010000100000111111 come on the screen. Why the fukk didn't they just say reset the game

That's why cats need to be LEGIT nervous if Kojima decides to make a PlayStation VR game.

you really think death stranding, Sony’s golden child, a game likely to be more movie than game, won’t get the VR treatment bet

Scrolling for an hour just to find the text description of the part you’re stuck at

I never beat him. That's as far as I ever made it in that game to this day.

You just admitted you had no friends.

I never did myself but at least a homie told me how.

Just went around Hyrule killing random monsters for MONTHS
Didn’t think I’d ever continue on

That happened to my goofy ass too and I still managed to not to get frustrated.

I miss the patience I had for games back then.

This is the same game that you had to look at the back of the game case to find the code to call Meryl for the first time.
This type of creativity just doesn't exist in games anymore and is why I consider Kojima one of the GOATS despite the foolishness that happened with MGSVTPP.
MGS on PS1 was full of innovation. Remember Psycho Mantis reading your memory card and telling you about yourself?
I remember losing my mind the first time I fought him and he told me: "Ohhhh you like Suikoooodeeeennn?"
Then he proceeds to tell me how I've been reckless and haven't saved often.
That Psycho Mantis fight is brilliant. Remember when he tells you to put the controller down and makes it move?
I can't think of any other game that had so many unique things going on at once.
The only other game I would say that comes close is Eternal Darkness on gamecube.

Arkham Asylum also deserves a shoutout for it's creativity. Scarecrow's fear toxin had me thinking my 360 crashed

You know what's crazy.

I downloaded MGS1 on my PS3. And when I got to that part he saw that I had Suikoden downloaded on my PS3 as well. The emulation must make it seem like my Suikoden save is on a memory card or something but I thought that was cool.

plugging your controller into the second port? how did folks back then figure it out without the ability to google it?


that shyt woulda stumped me

Game mags

 

[Devilinurear]

who besides tech geeks and rich a$$holes really had the internet back in '98 brehs?

Everyone
Aol was giving away disc like crazy

 

[DrunkenNovice]

eventually he also tells you about another way, which is to shoot the statues

I never did it this way.

well not everyone was as fortunate as you breh

I didn't get the internet at home till around late '99/early 2000. around the time it became a must to have home internet.

Why do folks on here act like if you weren’t living in a single room shack with 17 family members you’re not really black?!


We weren’t rich but we had internet back then. Everyone had those AOL
disc..
