Well now that I've looked into it, you both handeled it wrong, 1st he should've stop being an ass to you, but you were just rude to him over a off-topic thread.

Alright, seriously, I've had enough.

What's done is done, I don't want to hear anything else about BroBuzz or what happened today.

Let's drop it and have some fun like we used to here.

ANY more posts regarding BroBuzz and his shenanigans will be deleted

has anyone cried in memory of mother 3? as in you cried just remembering what happened? because I know, when I looked at my memory of chapter 8 maybe 2 times I cried just remembering when the screen flashed white and what the mother said. and what the brother did at the end. why do I talk this way... I try to be spoiler free.

Since I could relate to the situation that Flint and Lucas wre in (my sister passed away last summer and I've dealt with depression for 2 months after it) I came very close to it. I'm only half-way though, (I'm going through the ocean right now, as I've just beaten the new fassad, or whatever his name was) So I doubt I got to the most emotional parts.

I am glad I try my hardest to speak in ways that are spoiler free, because I'm always proven that there is at least one person on the forum that hasn't beaten the game yet. please let me know if you cry. I suggest playing alone. so you don't have to hold back you tears. that way, you won't have to worry about others judging you. (like dude, you cried over a video game) becuase I feel one shouldn't stop themselves from crying over something so beautiful.

Oh, thanks for no spoilers.

Btw, I'm sure that if my brother knew you in real life, he'd make sure to slug you in the face for saying that. XD Yeah, he's a sony fanboy, along with my other older bro.

I'm a Sony fan boy as well. .but I love me some Nintendo Handhelds
I'm a 28 your old man built with muscles and a split personality that comes out when my body feels it's in danger to protect me
so yeah if he punched me.. I might black out, and then who knows what would happen then.
last time that happened I went to jail.
good thing, I'm moderately insane or I might not have been able to get out of jail so easily:P

but yeah. if your brothers are that way. I really suggest playing chapter 8 in solitude. just for safeties sake

I always play games alone (unless I'm playing mulitplayer, of course), because then no one can bother me. It's hard to appreciate a game or anything else if someone is shouting into your ear 'bout how much they're bored and would rather you play a game with them then by yourself. It's also hard to cry when someone's breathing down your shoulder. I also find that I do worse in a game when someone's with me. Dunno why, though...

Ryuka it's pressure of impressing who is ever watching. I first figured this out when I learned to juggle. when nobody was watching. I could juggle perfectly. but the second I tried to show it off to somebody I couldn't juggle at all.

it's strange you don't feel the pressure. but just because you don't feel it, that doesn't mean the pressure doesn't exist. I think the fact that you can't feel the pressure is why it has such an effect on you.

if you tried to recognize the pressure, you can become a gaming god in front of your friends.

I got so good at playing games. that my friends never complained about watching me play them. they just marvled in how great I was at playing the games.... plus I grew up in a time where about 89% of the games were one player and when you were playing video games at your friends house. that meant you were watching your friend play video games or they were watching you play video games. it was a shared experience that I feel the modern gamer could never understand.

it was an unspoken rule, who ever was best at the game was the one who got to play it.

but anyway. to get better at playing game around friends or strangers you first have to identify the tension. and then find a way to exist with it or grow stronger from it.

I grew from it as I realized how impressed my friends where when I beat a really hard game without getting hit once (like when I beat contra on the NES without getting hit once). but anyway. you said on another thread that you beat the game. did you cry at all? you said you had to stare at the wall for a while to realize what you just witnessed. and there is so many things that you could have meant when you said that (so many things went wrong at the end)

Since Claus being the masked man was already spoiled to me (son of a...succaba), even though I bet I could have figured it out by myself, it took some of the expirience away so I didn't shed a tear. I bet I would have cried if I never knew that he was Claus till the very end, but since I already knew, I'm kicking myself for not covering my ears. I'd much rather not have it spoiled and cry my eyes out over the story then let it be spoiled and then just sit there feeling angry at myself for letting them spoil it. It lets me get into the story and feel for the characters better.

What made me sit there and stare at the wall was that it just felt queer (strange) to have such a stale ending (the ending was a tad boring because it was this: pull the needle? yes. Conglaturations, because of you wasting 25 hours on this, everyone's fine now. Now go play another game! I was thinking, really? After Leder explaining the wonderful story (which I was upset when his explanation ended so quickly) I expected a more detailed ending not the generic fairytale ending!

It also felt queer because after pouring all that time into the game to try and notice as much as I could and do all this stuff, it just ended with: dandy job, go play super mario bros! It felt odd because my usuall routine was get home, play mother, etc. and now it's get home, play yoshi's island (which is a good game, but now I'm thirsty for a good fictional story).
