@AnikM Not trolling? When was the last time you had something positive to say? If you don't like the game tough ****, it wasn't your turn to pick the topic.

He was making good points and was being constructive. He wasn't trying to argue for the sake of arguing he was being a good debater that was making proper concessions and giving props to good points.

@Wish,

It's completely understandable. It's funny, when I get a new game on PS3 I get sort of bored with them. Most of them are beatable and if they do well, will instantly have a sequel.... which will be pretty beatable so they can make a 3rd one. Don't get me wrong, there's definitely some that I enjoyed quite a bit, but for the most part most games are pretty easy and boring nowadays.

I have all the old NES roms on my xbox and I try to play some of the games I loved as a kid (Weapons & Warriors II, Rygar, Abadox, etc.) and always think "****, this **** is hard! How the **** did I beat this as a kid?!" as I get my ass kicked on the first level. For me, I felt like I achieved something when beating those games. More emotional stress came out of most of those titles than any PS3/360 games.

@desauce last time I had something to say?

hm, June 30, 2012 at 3:32 PM.

The whole point of the forums is to discuss opinions, and that's what I did. You got a problem with that, you can cry about it to a moderator or something.

@Oldnick I still haven't beat.

You'd think for being a Disney game it would be one of the easier ones, but it is hard as ****.

hahaha Jungle Book on NES. I never understood why Baloo was a boss in that game. Got pretty far but never beat it either.

@AnikM Wow, you had one positive thing to say, I'm impressed. My above statement was calling you out in general, not just this thread or today in particular. We all know who the biggest troll on this site is, we don't even need to discuss it. Also, if you think I am one to cry to a moderator about a troll problem you don't know me very well. I would rather hash it out with you directly.

@desauce: And we would rather you not hash it out with Anik directly in the middle of a thread. Right or wrong, it's not going to get you the result you want.

Troll? There is a troll in Castlevania's Lord Of Shadows and you definitely don't feed him. =P

I actually never played Castlevania as a kid, (I personally preferred the Mega Man series, yes they are kinda the same game every time, but that same game is pretty damn good lol!)

Maybe I'll have to try the Castlevania games out sometime.

Mega Man 2 was the sheet.  Good call Stickman.
