Jeff Zero 08/10/11 6:50:00 AM #8:	DKC2 is a top forty title for me. S3&K is a top fifteen title for me. Mario 3 is a top forty title for me. Mario World is a top fifteen title for me. Although I have only played DKC1 and 2, the Genesis Sonics and Colors and Mario, Mario 3, Mario World, Mario 64 and the two Mario Galaxy games. I hope to have the same feeling when I play Mario 2 during a time in which it is said Nintendo is going downhill as I did when I played MMX8 during a time in which Mega Man is potentially dying. Embarrassingly enough, I'm a huge Mega Man fan but I only recently played MMX8! Ironically, I looked forward to it bringing the series back to form but still wound up feeling it was too different and the boss fights were shoot-a-thons compared to the twitch action of the first five or six. This makes you feel tingly in your loins. -- "You caused the rain to bleed." ~SCP~ http://img.imgcake.com/Jeffzeropngus.png "Thanks Punny!" <cite>Jeff Zero posted [p:192373] in DKC2 and Y...

LeonhartFour 08/10/11 1:04:00 PM #33:	From: BoshStrikesBack \| #031 DKC2 is incredible, but probably the most overrated game on this board. No, that would be Mario 64. Or maybe the game you just listed right above the sentence I quoted. And is Yoshi's Island actually longer? It always felt like a shorter game to me. Regardless, the difference wouldn't be much, and being longer doesn't make it better. Yoshi's Island has the edge in bosses over Mario World and graphics (although unless they're contemporaries made very close to each other, this is never a fair comparison to make, for obvious reasons). Yoshi's Island is fun, but it never felt like the all-time classic so many people on this board seem to hail it as. -- http://www.gifsoup.com/view/593815/frasier-and-niles-dance-o.gif <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:192398] in DKC2 and Y...

BoshStrikesBack 08/10/11 1:27:00 PM #45:	You're talking about LOL cape like you're forced to use it when you play the game and make it super easy. The four major powerups in the game are Mushroom, Fire Flower, Cape, and Yoshi. Sure, I guess no one's "forcing" you to use the cape, but then again, no one's "forcing" you to use the Robot Masters' weapons in MM titles, or "forcing" you to use savepoints in DKC2, etc. etc. etc. Point is, it's a major feature in the game, and should be considered as such when evaluating the game's difficulty. Challenge runs are for another topic. -- ~Pinkie Pie is the best pony~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBpfwpOPXNc&NR=1&feature=fvwp <cite>BoshStrikesBack posted [p:192410] in DKC2 and Y...
