.......a certain nerd is looking on with amazement and appreciation for your hard work. Heh, you went on for so long on how difficult the end boss was you forgot to mention how to beat her. But, jeez......3 hours to beat her, at least tell me the pause button worked for this game :dry:
You should make another video where you complete the treasure level, so no one can say you didnt complete the "whole" game or took a "shortcut".

There is no strategy I guess. He said there wasn't a pattern to her actions, and you have to rely on twitch reflexes. You must use the skills that have been harnessed over the years, and conquer that beast!

Believe it or not, I actually saw this video last week. At the end of your previous video, it was accessible through a link within the movie box. I'm surprised that so many people kept speculating about what it was going to be, when all they had to do was look at the video box after the previous video was over. (My guess is that the videos are uploaded ahead of time, and then are posted on the appropriate dates, but a glitch in the system makes them accessible before they're posted).
Anyway, I can't believe this game made it past quality control. Surely, the designers should have realized the overly complex character sprite animation would make the game near unplayable.
Oh, and, MMMmmmm, Baconator. (_

No, no glitches, he just tends to post them on his site before the videos are posted here. That "more episodes from this show" is associated with the blip.tv account, not the site it's posted on, so it shows the things most recently uploaded on that account, not on the site the video's posted on.

Heh, i think the game was too tidius. But did u notice the endgame music, it was actually pretty kick ass :P
-
12.27.2009 - 23:17 | DrakenBravo, my good man, getting through this ludicrously badly made game.
Er...one question though....what's with the "bald spot" on your lower jaw?

Awesome work LordKat! Really Awesome!
And the Clash On The Big Bridge during the Dragon Fight was an Uber addition! :P

Poor poor LordKat, having to play and beat this game.

YAY LordKat. Love being able to text you some dumb random thought.

This guy is incredible, he must be the most patient man in the universe.

Wow thanks dude. This game is a lesson in pain. And after all that, what happened to all that beautiful footage that suckered you into it? Did Satan invent this game to deprive children of their hard-earned quarters?! GAH!
-
12.28.2009 - 00:55 | CJS625The sheer amount of memorization this game requires reminds me of that video game tutorial spoof by Cody Johnston called "A Helpful Tutorial for a Game That Would Confuse Einstein". Kudos for conquering what must be the most frustrating video game of all time!

LordKat should beat Punpkinheads Revenge since spoony couldn't :D
Now that I think of it a LordKat and Spoony video would be awesome

SHOW THE TREASURE ROOM!!!

And I thought it could never be done. Way to go.
-
12.28.2009 - 02:00 | ShmooglavoueCongratulations on beating what could very well be one of the hardest games ever made. I daresay you deserve a place in the Guiness book of world records...

12.28.2009 - 02:11 | AdamdudeGood job man, but I thought you beat this in one go. How do you constantly have 5 lives?

Did you watch the entire video?
-
12.28.2009 - 02:20 | Lotus PrinceWow, I didn't know that you could press start to use a candle. I'd seen this game played on an emulator, so all I noticed was that the game had moving platforms in the dark. That's when my friend stopped playing. :P
-
12.28.2009 - 02:43 | funnygutsAre you using Linux? I'm guessing so because of the Kdenlive choice for editing. I just surfed through the Ubuntu Software Center and found a few more video editors that are open-source. The ones that look like they would theoretically do what you are needing in a video editor are Pitivi, Open Video Editor, and Avidemux. I haven't used any of these (or any video editor other than Final Cut) so I can't vouch for their quality. But they're at least available to try.

Hi, LordKat. I used to think you were masochistic, playing through all these horribly frustrating games. Somewhere around the time you did Ghosts and Goblins (or Ghouls and Ghosts, whatever) I realised you are not masochistic, you're completely insane! Dragon's Lair is another title I remember with dread. Thanks for suffering for our entertainment, I guess. :side:

Did you watch the entire video?[/quote]
Yea he talks about using up his 5 lives and trying over and over again, but there isn't a single part where the lives at the upper left are less than 5. Surely one of the deaths would have occurred at a different life?
-
12.28.2009 - 11:40 | MikonThe end of the video has a little rant that actually requires some reading. In it, he states that his video editing program ate a lot of his footage. So no, you didn't watch the entire video.

Some games just aren't worth the time it takes to finish them. This POS is a prime example of that...
Pros to you for having the patience to knock this crap game out.[b][/b][i][/i] [color=teal][/color] [size=medium][/size]

I applaud you and bow to your patience in even attempting this game. I'm not one who's ever played it, but just seeing AVGN's video ... man ... it seems impossible - but you prove us wrong!
But again ... Actraiser 2.

Salute to people that completed this without a Emulator :woohoo:

Check out the rant at the end.
Also, Great job LordKat! I've never played the NES game but I did suffer through some of the arcade game when I was young.

You should make T-Shirts with "I'm not gonna lie to ya: This game is hard" and "Believe me: You're gonna die...a lot" 'Cause for me those two phrases are your trademarks.

12.28.2009 - 07:10 | Mr.StillmanGreat choice, Lord Kat! One question though: when you say I'm going to get hit, do you mean...alot??
PS This guy should be doing triathelons with this kind of endurance.

um...
KDENLIVE NEEDS TO DIE :angry:
Also why throw a random boss when the rest of the game you need to memorize?
