US or "lost levels"?

The Doki Doki Panic one. I hate the Lost Levels, I am so glad they didn't release that here. It's the same exact game as the first one, but harder. WOW!

But the Doki Doki Panic release is just brilliant, it takes you to new worlds, and introduces tons of brilliant gameplay elements. That part in level 4 where you ride Birdo's egg for like 30 seconds straight is one of my favorite things in any game ever. Also in one of the levels, you're traveling from magic carpet to magic carpet.

That feeling of flying through the air, running from creepy masks after stealing their keys -- the gameplay is effortless, the game just never fails to be fun as fuck.

Too bad there are only 4 musical tracks in the entire game, though.

noisereductions · 09.27.2010, 03:17 PM

yeah lost levels sucks.

But I'm shocked you NEVER beat SMB2 before. It was the first one I beat in the series when I was young. I always found it to be an overly easy game. By far the easiest in the series. How come you never beat it earlier?

atsonicpark · 09.27.2010, 03:29 PM

Too busy playing Journey to Silius.

that rikku's pretty hot.

EVOLghost · 09.27.2010, 04:38 PM

oh and adam, Street Fighter Alpha 3 kicks ass. My first SF was Alpha 2, that was my first playstation game. I loved it. so many blistered fingrers after playing that.

atsonicpark · 09.27.2010, 04:45 PM

Yeah, Joe, EVERYONE made fun of my ex for getting with a dull, fat, jobless, idiot... but she was sooooo eager to rip me off $200 and go to Florida, so she could sit on her ass for a year and not have a job or do anything at all... also, she lives 4 hours away from him and sees him like once a month, for a few hours.. real meaningful relationship! Really worth breaking up a SEVEN YEAR relationship for.

....ANYWAY, if you guys wanna see a good cosplay, type CAMMY COSPLAY into google..

Ghostchase · 09.27.2010, 04:47 PM

Anyone play the Guilty Gear for Wii?

atsonicpark · 09.27.2010, 09:34 PM

Nope, I stopped at the, um, the 5th ps2 iteration of it, haha. I mean, it's worse than Street Fighter, with all the spin-offs. Then again, when they finally made a sequel, it was like an adventure game...?!

Batman for the NES. LOVE this game, walljumping always impresses me of course. You know, this was the first game I owned for the NES -- and I was always kinda scared by the opening, that jarring "dun dunnnnnnnnnn" as you see Batman flash and then it fades to black and then the title comes back on. Playing it on emulator now, and um, it does that, too, on this one -- I seriously have thought for years there was something wrong with my copy. I wonder what the deal is with that. Very strange.

Anyway, the music is done by the guy who did the Journey to Silius music, which explains the superstrong melodies and very deep bass grooves. The graphics are incredible! So detailed! (also check out Batman: Return of the Joker -- while the gameplay isn't as good, the music and graphics are INCREDIBLE!)

Anyway, I'd never beaten this game before but I got damn close today, got to the last level at least. It's not that hard of a game, just kinda cheap at times (the jumping enemies with the devil horns in the sewer level).

Anyway, worth playing just for some of the precision walljumping -- just fun jumping around. Great atmosphere. Seeing the graphics on this make me really wonder what they could've done on the NES -- looking back on it, SO MANY NES games had undetailed backgrounds, and simple music that mainly just consisted of looping high pitched melodies. When you see this game and Rekka and Castlevania 3, with the high speed highly melodic complex musical arrangements... and the superdetailed dark backgrounds with beautiful artistry... and then playing LITTLE SAMSON recently, which is so gameplay-intensive (dragons flying around, jumping from wall to wall while blasting shit, etc)... I mean, yeah. They really could have done some more awesome things with the system... I mean, I love the NES, but it seems like only Nintendo, Konami, Capcom, Sunsoft, and Netsume (Abadox, S.C.A.T, Shatterhand, Shadow of the Ninja) really took advantage of the hardware.

atsonicpark · 09.27.2010, 09:40 PM

Oh, earlier in the day, I was playing the hell out of this:

COCORON! FROM THE DEVELOPER OF LITTLE SAMSON!

Attention, everyone... PLAY THIS GAME! There's a U.S. english hack of it, and yeah.

Okay, in the beginning of the game, you choose a head, a body, and weapons.. you can choose, say, a werewolf head (gives you more health), a dragon body (lets you fly), and ninja stars for weapons (versus swords, fire, other things). That alone is cool -- there are about 10 variables of 3 character traits, meaning you can create tons and tons of different combinations of character. Think of Mega Man but you get to choose from the beginning to be part Cutman, part Napalm Man, and.. oh.. part Shade Man (and not just their weapon power, you could float like Shade Man as well!!!)!

Then, some weird ass elephant with a pink umbrella sends you to dream land, and you go from forests to caves and other weird ass locations, shooting the shit out of monsters and solving insane puzzles.

MINDBLOWING GAME!
