I feel sorry for that, SS.

But to be honest, it would be even more frustrating for me to lose a save file of a Pokémon game or of Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc.

Well, it reminds me when a person who used my computer for a night, he deleted my I-Ninja save file who had already a higher rank. I freaked out when I've learn that. I had a backup of a previous save file, but still, I lost many grades, some hard to get. I had also a case with SPORE: my computer crashed and I lost my save file due to corruption. Had to start all over.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS - ENDGAME:
Ok, so I just played [the Land of the Livid Dead] and I thought I might drop in my thoughts of the place. It's agony. Pure agony. And before you ask me if it can really be that bad, let me make a statement. [I believe the Bible was mistaken: sinners do not go to Hell, no, they go to the Land of the Livid Dead.] The skill required to complete it is not something you must possess or be born with, on the contrary, it's exactly because you know that you can do it that it's so infuriatingly frustrating. The reason why I was so determined to make it through and why I didn't just throw the controller away after several attempts is because it's Rayman, because of the scenery, the music and the challenge itself - but the thought had crossed my mind more than it would in any other case. The scenery, as with the whole game, is amazing. The music is terrific and the gameplay is awesome - but it's just. So. Damn. Hard. [The Big Mama Boss] was in the end not that hard to master, but neither [were any of the other bosses]. It was just the right amount of Rayman. It was fun playing that game through and I'm sure as hell not laying it down now I've finished it. Time to grab all those Electoons, take one more amazed look at the art and enjoy the music. I'm actually going to introduce my friend here to [the Land of the Livid Dead] after I finish writing this. I'll give you a report on his mental condition afterwards.

I love this review on the level. Also there's no need to use spoiler tags anymore.

The Land of The Livid Dead may have been the hardest, but I felt it was prudent, seeing as you need all Treasure Chests to reach it.
I've always thought the Land Of the Livid Dead as the ultimate chest challenge, as most of the time, you still have to be swift and keep up, and yet retain on-the-second timing and correct jump sensitivity.
It's basically the one final test of all the skills you have learnt from playing the game.

This.
Its pretty much the same with alot of kids that go to my school. I tell them I can afford something and they brag about having it and also the fact that they don't want/like it or never even use it. (E.g: The girl I mention a while back who blames me for all the RO Advertisments she sees and thinks shes better than everyone at everything lol)

:cry: At this rate I don't think i'll ever know lol. Pretty much the biggest reason i'm pissed off about the deletion of my file I wanna join in on conversations in the rayman board. Brb, Rayman Origins allNighter Weeker. Fuck Touhou none of that till RO is 100%

We also really should make a 'Rant here' topic.

Well, I finally got around to finishing rayman origins having gotten it for christmas and...this is my new favourite platformer. Honestly, this game is like gaming perfection, and it's not often these days that I keep coming back to something not for the characters or story or exploration or whatever, but just for the sweet, sweet joy of playing and succeeding. It's absolutely joyful and I cannot wait to see what Ubi has up their sleeves next.

The only downside is the plot twist which I've already queried about. Again, I do love it and I thought the ending was hilarious, but I really do think that this guy is a fan of Mr D, it's the only way its reads right to me. I love how the magicians hat gives the game away at the beginning of the moody clouds level and how it's ONLY there for that purpose. More of that kind of thing throughout the game would have been nice. Why was so much good content cut? Why were so many story ideas and enemies thrown out the window? I can only hope it means either DLC or a sequel. Either way, the fact it left me wanting more is wonderful, so at some point i'll head back in and get all those electoons. Sweet jesus, what a fresh game.

WTF? You got pepper-sprayed by his mom? Can't you report that? I mean, she attacked you for no reason, right?

Anyway, OMFG it's so hot here. My room is over 30 degreees celsius. Though it's been hotter, like 40 degrees...

Anyway, today I'm gonna step up to the plate and go collect the remaining electoons.

I can't believe it. My Minecraft addiction has kept me from this game, this server, and many other things. I did not think a game could have such a huge influence on one. Anyways, I'm currently trying to get away fro my gaming addiction, so I decided to once again show up here and talk to you guys.

So yes, I'm close to completing the game, but I have yet to accomplish many things in the game. :wink:

If you're here, you're far from splitting yourself from your gaming addiction. It's not a big deal anyway, everyone has addictions. It's human nature. Better gaming than smoking or drinking.

If I were to report every incident like this that has happened to me, the police would have gotten sick of me years ago. I've been attacked for no reason many, many times.

Yuck, that sounds terribly hot. Over here it's about -8 Celsius.

Then it's time to do nothing but play Rayman Origins. After all, Rayman Origins isn't a game, it's serious business.

Even a more grammatically correct version of this wouldn't be as seriousness.
