Cave Story, so good!
One man made this awesome game?
He must make some more!

Shadow Complex where there are the red forcefield-esque barriers that deactivate as the enemies go about their patrols. I think I’m going to have to FAQ it…

Fourth place? Crap. Retry.

This isn’t really a story of frustration, but this is the only place to put it, so here it goes. When I was 9, I rented Resident Evil 2 for the PS1. At this point in my life, I didn’t know what a survival horror game was, so when I looked on the back of the box, I was like ”oh, it’s like a third person shooter.” I started playing the first level and there were like 5 zombies coming at me; I couldn’t figure out the controls in time and the zombies got me. Also at this point in my life, I didn’t have the concept of what a zombie was. During the death sequence, I promptly turned off the game system, scarred; that moment scared me enough not to touch another Resident Evil game till Resident Evil 4, or any zombie media for that matter. Funny thing is, I actually like zombie games/movies now; I’ve played every Resident Evil game since. Maybe it’s me trying to prove I’m not scared of them anymore, or maybe they’re the only thing that can get me scared, so it carries a certain appeal; like the reason other people like seeing horror movies is the same reason I like zombie games/movies.

I remember the days when i thoguht it’d be cheaper to buy arcade games on the Xbox360 rather full new games. so i bought N+. And it started off being great fun, until it gradually got harder and harder and harder. But i insisted on completeing it, because it got so addictive. I ended up hating it and began to break pens and pencils, throw things at walls, hit myself and scrape my nails on my skin. I’m usually a calm passive preson, but this damn thing got me so angry. It only saved every 5 levels. So if you died over and over and wanted to come back tomorrow, you’d have to redo the last 4 levels again. And when i finally finished level 250 i was so glad to be done with this thing, and then it ”unlocked” 50 expert levels. I ended up getting stuck forever on level 299 of 300. Then i realised afterwards that you can complete these same single player levels with 3 other people online and still get the ame acheivements.

They are pretty violent
