  1. The only game I play with these options is FF8. But it all depends on what point of the game I'm at. In the beginning I use a bit of magic and GF's. As the game progresses I quit using the magic and stock it only to junction it. Depending on what I'm trying to accomplish at the moment determines what abilities I have in play. If you junction 100 Full-Life's and 100 Ultima's to your elemental defense for example, all elemental attacks will actually heal you instead of harm you.

  2. I can see the laughing now, and know I'm gonna catch more than hell for this but I have to ask:

    Unless it's waterlogged dirt, what's MUD?

  3. Blaster Master. It's my absolute favorite game. So ungodly challenging, and severely unforgiving. But the headache and heartbreak you get when you're beat is worth it. The worlds get bigger and bigger, the bosses are hidden deeper and deeper, and to find the entrance to some levels you have to backtrack to previous levels. For example the entrance to level 4 is hidden in level 1.

    A bitch of a game, next to impossible without a Game Genie, but either way a masterpiece.

  4. Ok here's a riddle for you.

    *****************************************

    A few years ago, my older brother went crazy. He stabbed my sister to death and attacked my parents. The police managed to subdue him before he killed them too. He's been in a mental hospital ever since and we never visit him.
    This morning, we got a letter from him in the mail. The postmark was yesterday. I opened it and inside, I found a strange note:

    "Tonight the wind blows colder still.
    All I know is darkness, never light.
    The pain will break strongest hearts.
    My dreams still escape my grasp."

    I couldn't make sense of it, so I went to the kitchen and gave it to my mother. As soon as she finished reading it, her face went pale and the note slipped from her fingers. She rushed to the front door and started screaming.

    It doesn't help that some of these millennial parents are very childish in nature as well so they don't really know any better so they just keep making the situation worse. Then they try to blame everyone/everything for not being a good influence on their children.

    Also they aren't willing to admit that they are the failure so they need a scapegoat. Video games are the perfect patsy. It's not like Richter Belmont is going to pop up out of a random Castlevania and defend himself.

  6. When I was a kid it was right in the middle of the video game crash. I actually didn't even knw what a video game was because of it. I spent all my time outside. Climbing trees, playing with toys, and just running around. My first video game was a Colecovision that I got when I was probably 4. It was a hand-me-down from one of my grandmother's friends. I was amazed that there were things I could control on a TV. It blew my mind. I played Donkey Kong, Ladybug (basically PacMan), and another game but for the life of me I can't remember what it was. It was bliss. Now we have games that look like real life and act like real life. People think "My kid's a good egg. This will just entertain them before dinner." Which happens more and more, until eventually the kid is left to the game as a babysitter instead. Then 20 years later the kid is on trial for murder and the defense is playing video games, instead of absent, shitty parents. Video games are fine. I'm not attacking them. But the parents need to take an interest in their child if they want that child to be worth anything.

    As a side note:
    I swear to the Gods I wish I still had that Coleco.

    That sucks but can you at least do a bit of stretching? Stretching at least makes your muscles less tense and promotes circulation throughout the body.

    Unfortunately no. I have advanced muscular dystrophy. My body wears out so quickly that I pass out with very much activity. And my muscles are so weak due to it, that stretching would only add to the problem. I've tried it before, and the result wasn't good.
