... afternoon either. "Super Metroid" is a game I've always wanted to play and for the last several hours we've been stuck on a particularly fiendish area. Because the game is so non-linear, going around and around in circles is a very possibility. And time is running out on the trip too! These classic titles didnt fk about. No clues to assist, no shits given for the player. As brutal as they come... :(

Lovely. I love retrogaming, but I admit, I've never had the patience for the prolonged trial and error required by platformer-like games. The all "no clues, no help" is what I love most about old titles. People nowadays confuse "hard" with "frustrating", but it was just better when a game knew how to be challenging for the mind without being too impolite on the hands. But that's the thing: pure platformers tend to be frustrating - even the old ones. And I ended up missing big things like Metroid, with all the action and exploration. I envy you a bit, though, because these games were a big part of our culture!

It's one step better than the games that the only ending was your characters death!!!


Asteroids ... keep shooting as they get faster and faster until inevitably, you die ... sucked into the vacuum of space for eternity.

Then....
