That sucks man.

I've kept close contact with a lot of my old friends. We've been a pretty tight group of mates for years and I intend for it to stay that way for as long as possible, but I've had the luck virtually no one ever moved very far away.

I still hang out with everybody but two friends from my high school lunch table lol

One of those two moved to Philly and we chill when he's in town, the other got hooked on heroin and stopped hanging out with people - he's at least clean now though

almost all of my close friends i have now i made after high school, in hs i was non-existant

We used to have this big fucking group of like thirty people and we always chilled in the park at the halfpipe or by the river side with a campfire, drinking and doing drugs, back when I was 16-19, but now the group's splintered up into clusters. I've kept my closest friends through most of it, which I'm super grateful of, tbh.

So anyway, I just spent the night eating out with my brother, his gf and my niece. It's really strange how incredibly xenophobic everyone in my family is. It's like, "..and I'm not a racist, but *leans over and lowers voice* it's always those.. [i]coloured[/i] people.. if you know what I mean." The whole fucking time. And then the rest joins in on a [i]damn those foreigners[/i] rant.

yeah those rants are always awkward

[I]freemasons control the country[/I]

My niece was raised by filthy rich parents, though, and she lives in one of those places where there are no coloured people, so it's probably all just kind of foreign and scary to her.

[QUOTE=beans;18894513]i want to play metal slug[/QUOTE]

Get this bro: http://neoragex.en.malavida.com/

It has 150 or more NEO GEO games that come with and you can use any usb controller. All the metal slug and KOF games are on there.

juttin and I play it so you know it has the SNK fanboy seal of approval

nah only one I ever spent any amount of time on was Contra 3 but after dying a thousand times it got to a point where I could finish it with my eyes closed on hard. that game was easy to memorise patterns for but this has far more projectiles being thrown around the screen you have to concentrate on

beat samsho v special last night on mvs difficulty playing on the keyboard, was p hard

the metal slug series blows away the contra series in all aspects tbph

I need to do a run through all the genesis exclusives I never played. only played the Sonic games, Toejam and Earl and Shining Force 2

or Mega Drive as it was known here in Australia lol

shining force 2 is one of my favorite games

just found out you can return any used game you buy at Game Stop within 7 days for a full refund. I plan to take full advantage of this because I always beat games really quickly so now I can play a bunch of new games practically for free.

I just returned Sonic Generations because I beat everything in it 100% in 5 days and I know I won't want to beat it again. I'm doing this every time from now on unless the game is awesome and I want to keep it forever.

i never ever go to gamestop anymore

EDIT: moar liek lamestop lol

You should really check out Gunstar Heroes. It's made by some of the team that worked for Konami and made Contra. They made their own company called Treasure which developed games like Gunstar and Ikaruga.

The game is fairly hard but if you play it on Easy the first time it's pretty forgiving. It has awesome bosses that rotate and take up the whole screen, a bunch of interesting, diverse levels. The coolest part is that there are 4 types of weaponss and you can combine any two to make a total of 16 different weapons. You can also choose whether you want to be able to shoot in 4 directions while you move or if you want to shoot in all 8 directions but only while you're standing still.

Seriously get the ROM and give it a chance. It's a Genesis classic.

silhouette mirage kills gunstar imo

ps1/saturn classic, def in my top 5

EDIT: u guys need to play sum more obscure stuff

These are the exclusives I recommend:

Gunstar Heroes
Dynamite Headdy
Ristar (made by Sonic Team)
Columns
Alien Soldier

get thunder force iv, too

Juttin-kun I get the feeling you haven't played GH very thoroughly because if you had I think you would hold it in higher regard. Have you beaten it before or just played it a little bit? Tell the truth bro.

And you know I've played plenty of obscure shit bro.

cheers

yeah I was playing [I]Ikaruga[/I] a while back its awesome. had it on the highest difficulty setting and couldn't get past the third stage

i've played it a little bit millions of times, never beat it, have only watched other people beat it

silhouette mirage is seriously better in ever aspect, it evolved the gameplay and whatnot of gunstar in every regard, controls, graphics, story, weapons, levels etc, it's amazing you guys should play it and i think you'd agree with me

EDIT: hardest shooter ever is pulstar on neo geo, game is infuriatingly hard

I don't think you can judge that game accurately if you've never beat it. Every level is different and it's not really fair to judge it without completing it.

I'll try Silhouette Mirage if you complete Gunstar Heroes. You're missing out bro.

before anything you really should play lunar the silver star story, bro

that is an amazing fuckin' game

I have it for Dreamcast and the farthest I've ever got was the fourth stage.

I will admit I'm not very good at vertical space ship shooters. I'm out of my element when I play them. I'm an expert at 2d fighters and platformers though. I'm pretty good at Metroidvania and JRPGs too.
