One more bandage. 100% on The End. Dread to think how many lives have gone now. A smidge more on Hell, but basically just Dark Rapture to go before there's just Cotton Alley between me and the 100%. Suspect it will remain so for a while...
Smashed it that sesh. 100% of Hell done, and up to 91 bandages. So just The Rapture's dark levels to go really, and a couple of Rapture bandages, including the ones from that effing skyscraper level which I have to go back to.
... and then Cotton Alley, which I keep dipping in to, but it's so fuckin hard.
Another solid sesh. Only 5 bandages to go . Got all the warpy zone bandages now which is a relief, so hopefully this lot won't be the worst of them, but we'll see. Basically the second half of Dark Rapture and that's it. Till Cotton Alley...
Would it be your greatest gaming achievement/failure? Was considering starting a thread about this - the gaming hurdles that you were proudest to conquer, or most annoyed with yourself for giving up on. I.e Ninja Gaiden on Xbox is supposedly a bastard, but I got through it in a couple of days (hardly a breeze, but Halo CE on Legendary, certainly one particular checkpoint, brutalised me beyond belief), but never completing Shinobi on Master System still haunts my dreams.
It's definitely up there. Though there's tougher stuff even Meat Boy had to offer: I'm only 88% on The Rapture and have hardly touched Cotton Alley, and only have 1 of 12 Iron Man runs done. Gulp.
Other competing things: 100%ing Motorstorm and Pacific Rift took quite a whack of dedication. Never been great at FPSes tbh so not so much. All Mario World exits back in the day (but haven't attempted the same in any of the more recent ones, like 3DW or the Galaxies). So, hmm, nor sure...
3DW is a monster when you get to the very end. Spent 45 mins depleting retroking's lives on one level and I wouldn't be surprised if I was barely a third of the way through the stage in my best run.
Beating Super Ghouls n Ghosts on GBA felt like an achievement, took me ages. Gave up on Bangai-O HD far, far, far too early. Damn that was hard, and I considered myself quite good at the DC one.
Yeah Dubs shits out incredible times on Trials for lols. Had a night of MP with him on it one night and he's that fast he actually seems slow, its insane.
Skerret's posting is ok to trip balls to and read just to experience the ambience but don't expect any content. "I'm jealous of sucking major dick!"~ Kernowgaz
Anyway, 100% of The Rapture done now, which was slow going. But that's everything apart from Cotton Alley (and the Iron Mans, but I really don't think I can be arsed with those). Might keep chipping away at it to try to get the overall 100%, but I'm just dying so many times per level it's getting a bit silly!
I've not been A+ing all the dark worlds. You obviously need to do so on the Light to unlock the Dark, but you can still get 100% by just finishing the Dark ones in whatever time. Thank goodness.
