There was a part where you're fighting those fatass AT-ST's (or was it AT-AT? I can never get those things right) and I just couldn't stop them all. They give you a limited amount of cables which tie up their legs for an instant kill, but there weren't nearly enough to take them all out, so you had to use your crappy lasers for the rest. I could never finish all of them :(( That was the "Bird vs Camel" segment of the NES game. Use the cables on the closest ones and shoot the rest. It is pretty tedious though. --- I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FUH-LAMING! - Homer Simpson Don't be a turd. - Chris Pratt <cite>HylianFox posted [p:906878932] in Games you ...

Instruction Manual literally tells you the barrels are controlled by up and down on the d-pad when standing on them. This is why I still stand by the old motto: "Read the fucking manual" It's almost like game rental places never had the manual. Not to mention, 99% of the time, you never needed to read the damn manual (unless it was a cool one like Zelda). If out of the blue, your game suddenly requires a mechanic that is mentioned in the game manual after going through several levels where you didn't need it - that's just bad game design. Sega fucked up. Deal with it. Manuals were a part of the games back then. In Star Tropics, there was a point in the game where you needed to brush water on a blank piece of paper attached to the manual to get a code to progress. --- By Grabthar's Hammer....what a savings. <cite>Kajagogo posted [p:906879154] in Games you ...
