Then, for a quick bit, played Xexyz and beat one flying stage to make it to volcano world.
Rob Hamilton @overdrive06:55 PM
Tried battle 2 of Eiku's fortress in Shining Force Final Conflict. Things went good until the gargoyles appeared... A couple deaths and then...EGRESS!
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 13, 2013
Finished getting the aid to Bruma in Oblivion. So sick of oblivion gates now. Next is Miscarcand. Made it to the front door and that's that for today.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 13, 2013
@zippdementia @joseph Crap...and I have all these 360 games I haven't even gotten to yet...lost forever...(sad emoticons galore)
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 12, 2013
Got through a couple more Oblivion Gates in Oblivion. Only two more to get everyone on my side in the whole "help Bruma" thing.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 11, 2013
@joseph_valencia Be even better if that one guy is a cripple who can do NOTHING but get murderized in five seconds by everyone. Just to fuck w/people.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 10, 2013
Finished Over Horizon. Damn, that was a good-ass game! Last level was a good challenge.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 09, 2013
Also did Riza's Day 6 in Rudra no Hihou. That was a long one. Lot of talking and a couple boss fights.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 09, 2013
Also beat the first Eiku fortress battle in Shining Force Final Conflict. Up next is the one actually against him.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 09, 2013
Then did the fourth world and castle in Xexyz. Boss was pretty easy here, but next castle is Horrza, so that'll be a nightmare.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 09, 2013
Beat the Crystal Dragon in King Colossus. Now, off to the sword shrine.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 08, 2013
And a beautiful afternoon was spent mainly watching NES longplay videos. My nerdness just leveled up, I think.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 08, 2013
@espiga @holdthephone @zippdementia @zippdementia You know, I never really used much Blue Mage stuff in any FF game. And now you know...
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 07, 2013
Did Surlent's Day 6 in Rudra no Hihou. Lazm was a bitch because his thunder attack's so devastating. Got lucky and he never used it this time.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 07, 2013
Must have been wrong. Must be the next flying stage in Xexyz where I start having trouble. Stage 6 (the third one) was manageable with an easy boss.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 07, 2013
Usually egress immediately when someone gets killed, but stuck with it just to finish this one off. First battle at Eiku's Fortress is next.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 07, 2013
Did the fifth level of Over Horizon. And beat the battle I was stuck on in Shining Force Final Conflict. Decided to live with casualties to win.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 06, 2013
Also did the fourth level of Over Horizon. Game is tricky. Digging it more than I expected.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 06, 2013
Did the third world and castle in Xexyz. Was gonna go further, but if I recall, this next flying stage is the first part of the game I get frustrated.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 06, 2013
@joseph_valencia @zigfried Uh, yeah. Thanks but no thanks Microsoft. Had you for the 360, it's been real, but doubt I'll be coming back your way.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 06, 2013
Tried that battle I'm on in Shining Force Final Conflict again. Things get tough when the tentacles come out. Damn...
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 06, 2013
RotW done for this week. A bit later than usual, but it's done and we're all happy.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
Also did the first (short) dungeon in Heracles no Eikou III. Now in the first good town (ie: one with equipment stores).
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
In King Colossus, made it up through the second coliseum to the cave where the evil woman's princess daughter is captured by a dragon.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
Tried next fight in Shining Force Final Conflict but got overconfident and blundered into a couple mages. So did L3 of Over Horizon which was tricky.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
@JoeTheDestroyer Might eventually just replay World of Xeen (MM 4 and 5 combined) at some point. Haven't reviewed that yet.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
@JoeTheDestroyer It was. I lasted about 20 minutes and realized the menus were such a hassle. Found out Sega CD version is J-only. So much for that.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
@overdrive And I may quickly decide that a console version of M&M 3 is pure masochism. Assuming this version is better than the crappy SNES one, tho.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
@overdrive As well as Lunar, but while I played the PS1 remake, it was in the pre-reviewer days, so it doesn't really count.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
The Sega CD: Where I find games I've reviewed on other systems and replay them for another review! Have Doom, Final Fight and Might and Magic 3.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
@overdrive ...since I beat the game something like three weeks ago, so if I don't get this written soon, my brain/memory will be gone.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 05, 2013
In the world of late RotWs, I expect to have mine up tomorrow. Just working on finishing my Space Megaforce review first...
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 03, 2013
Did the first part of Diest in FF II Dawn of Souls (get the pendant) and made it past the coliseum to the dungeon under the dungeon in King Colossus.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 03, 2013
@JoeTheDestroyer @zippdementia I used to play Golgo 13 a lot. It was kinda fun...with the Game Genie. Things get sick-hard later on as I recall.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 03, 2013
@zippdementia @JoeTheDestroyer Enjoy the music...while slowly getting killed by the soldier 10 steps away whom you can't see due to the horrid engine!
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 02, 2013
Also made it to the midway point (I'd guess) of some maze forest in King Colossus. Tricky place.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 02, 2013
@JoeTheDestroyer heh, I feel your pain. That game is virtually unplayable, it's so poorly put together.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 02, 2013
More like it. Won that battle I'd been struggling with a bit in Shining Force Final Conflict. Looks like Eiku is the next villain to go after.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 01, 2013
Did the first two levels in Over Horizon. So far, one of the better shmups played recently. Fun clone of the Gradius/R-Type sorts.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 01, 2013
Finished Kashoun Castle in FF II Dawn of Souls. The Dreadnaught is next.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveJun 01, 2013
Had to egress again from the first post-Magus fight in Shining Force Final Conflict. Two straight that I'm having trouble with. I like this challenge.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 31, 2013
@honestgamer @zippdementia @JoeTheDestroyer Good of an explanation as any as to why Bright Man's stage in MM4 is giving me so much trouble.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 30, 2013
Also did Sion's Day 6 in Rudra no Hihou. Things still haven't gotten to the crazy-tough level that I remember from the first time I played this one.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 30, 2013
I've started recruiting towns to help Bruma in Oblivion. Got Chorrol and the westmost port town that's slipping my mind at the moment.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 29, 2013
Beat Heat Man (MM2) and Top Man (3). Bright Man (4) still a thorn in my side, though.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 29, 2013
Did the long Sancre Tor dungeon in Oblivion. Now have to go to all the cities to close gates so they'll help with Bruma.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 27, 2013
And I beat Wood Man (MM2) and Hard Man (MM3) tonight in a brief bit of time with MM Anniversary Collection.
Rob Hamilton @overdriveMay 27, 2013
Also did another run for Kashoun Castle in Final Fantasy II Dawn of Souls. Should be able to make it through the next try unless something goes wrong.
