Have you ever played a Mario World hack. Those are about 5 times as difficult as NSMBW

Yeah I've play some super Mario world hacks and they are pretty decent in hardness. at least you have access to save-states.

Which I only use every once in awhile...

 

<_<

>_>

 

Yeah... 

 

Also, giving a game a low rating just because you're bad at it seems kinda harsh. :P

I actually don't think I was bad at it I'm pretty good at it at some points... But Its my opinion anyway so...  :blah:

You know the easier levels of NSMBWU would be totally welcome after this experience with NSBW, as I just finished the game... The only thing I can say is why is this game so unforgiving I mean no matter what you do the levels are damn hard... and I mean hard.

 

And I was shocked when I beat bowser for the first time I was like "Hell yeah I beat it" But then Bowser grew to an extreme size and was about to impossible to make a lot of those jumps, I dyed like 20 something times before a strike of luck and made it to the end and hit that switch.

 

This game... I don't know what to say other then it pisses me off on hard it was and how ridiculous some of the levels were it didn't feel like a mario game it felt more like hack of a mario game in which your goal is the suffer with everything that the designer has done to the game.

 

Every which way you look at it the game brutal...

The game did has some good moments but not many mainly the bad overcast the good.

 

This game gets a 2/5: Would have got a higher score if it wasn't for the ridiculous difficultly.

-

 

Now that I'm done from that horrific adventure I'm going to continue on with the mod Newer that was made for the game. 

NSMBWU might also be a disappointing affair because you don't unlock super replays and stuff as you progress. All that fluff got ditched for no reason, instead all the good stuff is locked away from everyone except completionists.

I've finally beaten Final Fantasy Adventure/Seiken Densetsu/Mystic Quest/whatever the hell it's being called now. It's not bad, kind of like a much clunkier Zelda game with underutilized equipment and dungeons that you have to prepare beforehand to specifically avoid unwinnable situations. It's the kind of game that really deserves to be remade. I mean, for example, if you were to remake Link's Awakening in the same style as Minish Cap, you'd have better graphics, and more interesting dungeon gimmicks and designs, but it would have the same core gameplay. I know that there's a remake of this game for the GBA called Sword of Mana, but from looking at screenshots, it looks like they've changed so much that you can't really call it a remake anymore.

Muramasa Rebirth has been very addicting so far. Much better control than on the Wii. Project X Zone just got really good. It's one of those games that rewards you for doing massive combos. All the cameos are top notch from what I have played.

And I beat The Last of Us. That was one of the greatest games I've ever played, and wins game of the year without any contest. I can't point out a single thing I disliked about the game. And that story... there have been very few stories across any medium that I've been more emotionally drawn into. The PS4 might be coming out this year, but boy did the PS3 go out with a bang.

Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if Sony still supported PS3 games up until 2015. Man, now I'm very excited to try to beat The Last of Us.

I usually play these days

  • Zelda Classic (obviously)
  • Minecraft
  • Skyward Sword
  • Ocarina of Time 3D
  • Super Smash Bros. Brawl
  • Fire Emblem: Awakening (3DS)
  • Infamous 2
  • Other Wii or 3DS

Once I get a Wii U I'll have many more games to play, such as Super Smash Bros. 4, Wind Waker HD, and others! (once they come out) :)

My brother LOVES the game so much, and it looks incredibly amazing, since it's from Naughty Dog, and they ALWAYS make good games. IGN has rated most of their games (if not all of them) 10/10. I still need to play it though... Hopefully I will soon once my brother finishes it :D

Yeah, Naughty Dog's pretty incredible. Granted, I haven't tried their last trilogy (Uncharted), but the one before that (Jak and Daxter) was amazing, and the one before that (Crash Bandicoot, their first trilogy), while a bit unrefined, was still pretty fun.

Crash Nitro Kart, that game is graphically awesome in single player (Pretty bad in multiplayer, at least on PS2) but the control issues when driving on sloped tracks and the less refined weapons (In comparison to its predecessor) make it a pretty lousy game. It's not a god awful game, no there are plenty of other games that are tons worse, I just wouldn't call this a great game even though the graphics are very sexy in single player.

My brother says that the Uncharted series are also exceptionally well done. Imagine if Naughty Dog made games for Nintendo! Nintendo would have so many more sales... :D But I still love Nintendo.

Yeah, but that would never happen. Sony owns Naughty Dog, so I can't see them going to Nintendo any time soon. :P

All I can say about the original CTR (Crash Team Racing) on PS1....it was much much better than Mario Kart 64!

The Last of Us is one of the best games ever made. But if you haven't played it, watch out for spoilers. It's a dish best served fresh, though I'm already on my second play through.

 

I'm also still going through State of Decay. Can't wait for it to come out for the PC, because the 360 version has some annoying frame rate issues, but it's another fantastic game involving zombies, though it is very different compared to The Last of Us. That said, both games share an element of feeling like regardless of what you're doing, something is going to go wrong. It creates a really tense atmosphere, and I couldn't recommend either of the two enough.

I like how in The Last of Us, the stealth missions require you to think. It's not like Far Cry 3 where you just free the caged animal and have it kill all the enemies. :lol: <- The best part of that game.
