My friend and I once played Battle Mode Stage 2 on Super Mario Kart for about 11 hours straight. I can't even remember who won but it came down to the wire. It was about 150 rounds and there were a few empty beer cans lying around. And last summer I got a score of 298 in Wii bowling whilst drunk and laid across an armchair, in a competitive game too. And it probably means squat to anyone here, but my housemate and I are very decent Pro Evo players but I managed to absolutely cane him 10 - 1 once.
I played MGS for 13hrs straight over night to complete it (i rented it and wanted to get the most of it!). Or 45min halfs on FIFA 98: RTTWC. me and a mate thought it be fun, it was always a goal apart all game, end up at some thing like 79-80 think i won (i'll say i did, he can't say otherwise!) we could beat anyone at it and it was the only thing we hadn't done. Loserest - only finding out the shotgun in HL2 had a secondary fire when it was pointed out in Ep2!
What about expert though? My record is 89 seconds. You ever hear that song 'White and Nerdy' by Weird Al ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=-xEzGIuY7kw ). After that song I decided I should cut back on Minesweeper, far too many things ring true...
hehe, now that is special! did you not notice in the original half life either?! how can you get thru a game and not try out the secondary fire! it's the first thing i do with any new weapon!
MGS on PC. Cheated, for the sake of messing around, used the level 6 key card to enter the torture room (The one near the start of disc two on the PS version, by the cells you first meet Meryl and the Darpa chief in) and continuing to complete the game without noticing until the end that I hadn't fought half the bosses in the game. I'm not sure what that comes under, but that's the only unique-ish thing I've ever done with games. Unless you count genuinely enjoying ArmA: Armed Assault?
Oooh, another one: Playing a deathmatch against my younger brother and a mate of his on Doom and winning... 2300 frags against about 1500 and 1100. Now that was a marathon Doomy session!
ok... Could finish Contra 3 on the SNES on the HARDEST level without dying. Most people said it was impossible just to complete it, but I played it for hours/days/weeks & managed to get so good at it I could complete the whole game from easy, then normal, then hard & finally hardest without dying. I swear this is true. Can (still) finish Super Mario World on the SNES in less than 10mins. I think my record is 9.25. I Use to be able to get all the jems on Sonic 2 & become Super Sonic in the first 2 stages. Got all the cheats on Golden Eye - but the 2nd level (2.05 @ 00 ) was solid. Probably took 50+ tries. And it was luck where that scientist was where you had to get the decoder. Can finish Street Fighter 2 - Championship Edition (Arcade) with Ryu with getting hit - Perfects every round Could finish Resident Evil 2 (PS1) without using any first aid sprays or health herbs.
marathon....i wish i coulda been there man. http://speeddemosarchive.com/gamelist/FullList.html ^for those of your who haven't already, you guys gotta check this out
i think i might of messed up - I think I can do SMW in less than 11 minutes. But I'm sure I've done it under 10 mins. On the SNES - not emulator. Or it might have been on the GBA, I think the GBA might have faster transitions between levels. Plus I start the timer when I enter the first world, no when the game starts - that probably knocks off 30sec to a minute.
Mines gotta be a marathon COD4 session, me and 3 mates online for 8 hours in the same party! gotta love rainy weekeds
not really, i didn't feel ultra-impressed with myself when i got level 83, i felt like i should have had a better use for 20 hours. i think thats how long it took me, spread over 2 weeks
I got my name in a N64 magazine for fastest time on the last track of 1080˚ back int day. Took me a solid 2 days of cutting as close as possible to rocks as I dare.
Geeky achievements: 1. Completed Streets of Rage 2 with two credits on Hard Mode. 2. Obtaining FoW armor in under 2 hours with 4-man group (Guild Wars). + some others I can't remember atm.
I've jacked off 8 times in a day once. Does that count? On a serious note, 100% on GTA:SA without dying or being busted etc.
I've completed Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines as every single clan of vampire. The werewolf still terrifies me!
Once in school we set up a LAN game of Unreal Tournament GOTY edition on the Morpheus map, Team Deathmatch, our team was all real people (8 of us) and the other team was all auto difficult adjusting bots. First team to 3000 frags, instagib & low gravity. Absolute carnage. It started out, we were totally owning the bot team, running around fragging loads of them and hardly dying, then they started to adjust and got seriously good. You'd spawn, run for like 2 seconds then instantly be gibbed by a bot. It got hilariously frantic and insane, even our teacher decided to join and try help us. We went from being up by like 1800 frags to winning by less than 50 frags.
My greatest gaming achievement was winning a hard drive, Voodoo 3, and a free game (Quake 2 I think) playing Unreal in tournaments (not Unreal Tournament, lol) back in the glory days of Heat.net.
