I really wish NBA Jam was a part of this. It would be really interesting to see it go up against Tecmo.

Make your own poll ?

Hope you don't mind me adding it here. Not sure it deserves it's own thread. Plus all the gamers are going to be reading this thread anyways.

BTW, I vote NBA Jam. BOOMSHAKALAKA!!

it might be harder in the end game with red wizards

i've heard stories of people letting characters die intentionally and beating it with less than a full party though

i was crazy about video games when i was younger

I can't understand why Chrono trigger is getting so little respect.

it has never been a POPULAR game. just an acclaimed one. i've never played it for example.

the 'endless replayability' of tetris is a ruse. you would get sick of it and hit personal/human limits of play really quick.

[/ QUOTE ]

I can speak from personal experience that this is not true. The only reason I stopped playing Tetris is the pain it caused my wrists.

it would be a lot easier to make creative 'sub-games' of mario 3 by doing stuff by setting certain goals or putting restrictions on your play actions.

Sort of like beating the original Zelda without ever using a sword, except to finish off Ganon...

There's a site that has a FAQ for different levels of "perfect games" for FFVII. The highest level perfect game seems almost impossible to attain. You have to have the maximum number of every item in the game, mastered every materia, max gil, etc. I got to one of the mid levels.

My big feat: beating Tomb Raider with only the pistols.

How do you kill the guys in armor that you can only hit from behind? I know there are a few rooms that will only open when you kill them, same with the wizrobes I think.

someone find the link of the guy where it took him only 10 minutes to beat SMB3. It is the coolest thing you will ever see (Apparently I have no life).

it's been posted and it's not real. it was done meticulously through the use of an emulator.
