So I peak into the walkthru to see how to trigger the inverted castle .. fuck, they sure don't make em like this anymore. do you think anyone figured out all of the secrets in C:SOTN without reverse-engineering the game?
I remember I got like 203% years ago when it came out... but I definitely remember doing some wacky ass tricks to get that, and a friend had to show me a couple tricks. Even the guide I had at the time didn't have all of the secrets revealed. That was one of the coolest parts of that game back then... nobody actually knew what the true max was.. so even after beating the game I would still have fun roaming the castle for hours, grinding and trying to find extra items, and junk.

I don't think i'd remember half of the secrets now - so it would be a great time to revisit the game... but first I have to go beat Order of Ecclesia.. Death is being a fucking asshole !

I still to this day have never played that game. I've been kinda turned off by the DS titles... I know I just have to get my ass in gear and do it one day.

I don't own a PS3, and I imagine an original copy of it would be expensive. I guess the PSP port would be the best way to go? It's one of those games I don't think I really want to emulate on a PC.

Beating Dracula without the shield rod remains to this day a sign of a true bame hero.

No. There are certain points where blocking is required.

I never played the NES Punch-Out, only the arcade version. I was always fine with consoles' down graded visuals compared to their arcade counter part, but Punch-Out was just too damn different for me, so I never bothered.

Beat Shogo. I like the idea of playing a new console game and then an older PC game, rinse and repeat. What's this at my job. Uncharted 3? Well, your next, buddy. And then after... I pick Blood 2. Looks like I won't be joining you gents on opening Skrym day. That's alright, gives them time to patch the mother. And you know damn well this game will need patching.

Thank you, Rockstar, for making my decision to never play any of your annoying sandbox games again a real easy decision.

Girl at my work told me she used to teacher David Hayter Pilates back in California. She said he used to do the Snake voice sometimes while working out, and rename Pilates exercises to be more Metal Gear-ish. For example, "the Swan" would become "Stalking Eagle".

For me, I enjoyed the Vercetti character within Vice City. I absolutely LOVED the sprawling environment that was San Andreas. The soundtrack really makes or breaks that game though.

Jesus, the last time I played a golf game, it was probably World Tour Gold on the PC back in the mid-80's. That game was cool, though, since you could design your own courses, including dinosaurs and shit.

I'm always on board for a Rockstar game.

No one knows if it's Vercetti or if there are multiple playable characters or if it's an entirely new character. Rockstar is great at tossing red herrings out and supposedly there's going to be a trailer released every week or every other week until Christmas.
