Mega man X soundtrack lives rent free in my head, along with the first scene that crushed me as a child.

This is 2, not X, but you might still appreciate this live play. https://youtu.be/MUHlVdqRlPA

They're both correct.

Hook up the old super nintendo and start asking questions like "Hey did you ever play Lufia?"

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Lufia? I rented it from the video rental store back in the day. I never finished it, but I enjoyed the game.

So, Lufia is a LONG game. It's got fairly limited graphics and sound for a SNES game but it packs in a lengthy quest. It feels almost wrong to offer that one as a rental.

I've never even heard of Terraniema (? Kinda hard to read that font).

Is it any good?

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's considered to be the best game in Quintet's non-god-game trilogy (Soulblazer And Illusion of Time/Gaia being the other t'o games).

It is really good, but has its' unfair moments. Great music, too.

I’ve seen this repeated a bunch of times but it seems to be an opinion predominantly held by Brits who played Terranigma growing up. I don’t understand it, as I played Illusion of Gaia growing up and love the game dearly (and have replayed it many times since then) but I’ve played Terranigma multiple times and lost interest not long after passing Bloody Mary. The game has gorgeous music and graphics (especially the two world map themes and the early areas) but the story didn’t engage me like IoG.

It’s Terranigma, it never got a North America release so not well known there. I’ve never played it but I hear it’s pretty good.

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Terranigma, very cool game

LOOK DADDY, WHITE MEGA MAN!!!!

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That crying you hear echoing through the ages is the sound of Superman 64 and well-intentioned grandmothers ruining Christmasses all across the world.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, the Spiderman/Venom SNES games were where it was at. Never owned them, but spent lots with Blockbuster renting them.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Agreed, that game was awesome.

Superman 64 was famously bad. It's in the conversation with ET for worst game ever made. And because it was bad, it was quicky discounted, and a lot of people who didn't know how bad it was gave it as gifts.

Hmm…fine, I’ll be yer unicorn!
