Be any good at BGH map on starcraft. I do just fine on Fastest..but BGH I suck.

Anyone willing to trade starcraft lessons for poker lessons?

I'll do that. I played in WCG2005. Used to play terran in big matches but can teach any of them. =)

Once you learn build orders and [censored] isnt it just clicking a lot?

That would be like saying, once you learn what hands to fold call or raise with pf in poker don't you just bet your good hands postflop?

(talking about playing with FULL stacks here [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

starcraft is SUPER COMPLICATED

I remember when I was younger I literally spent all my time trying to beat Ghosts and Goblins on the NES. Has to be one of the hardest games ever.

[/ QUOTE ]

Without a doubt. That game is so tough.

that entire series is brutal, I've pulled enough hair out and thrown enough controllers over Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts for the SNES, definetly the one game that tilted me the most

g&g no deaths

Ghouls N' Ghosts used to be one of my two favorite games on the Genesis. The other was Revenge of Shinobi. I guess I really liked Strider too.

I think it's obvious which games I like the best.

This thread gave me the motivation to try and beat Super Ghouls and Ghosts. I'm 3/4 of the way through on an emulator. In the first two levels I abused the hell out of save states, but as I got more comfortable with the horrible jumping controls I was able to stop using save states about halfway through the map the first time around.

The Ghosts N Goblins games were just brutal. Never got super good at them.

In recent games, I never got particularly good at working Ivy's Summon Suffering throw in Soulcalibur. I could do it, but the problem was that I wasn't good at mixing up the buffering, so I tended to lead into it with one particular move very often and people got used to it.

When I played Defender of the Crown on my Commodore 64 I could never do the tournament. Never figured out how to attack that guy's shield.
I recently discovered an online version and now I can't even attack the castles anymore [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I have this game for the NES. It's insanely difficult. I beat it once which I think was by pure luck.

Just beat Super Ghouls and Ghosts. Very hard.

The ending was so [censored] tilt inducing though. Rather than you saved the princess and lived happily ever after it goes on and on about the stupid [censored] bracelet.
