back in my favorite gaming days: the goldeneye days. i played my brother (who was very good and the best of everyone i knew besides me cuz he was the only one that could occasionally beat me), and two other friends who were each decent in 3-on-1 at the stack with grenade launchers. i ended up winning 20 to -4 having not died once and the only kills they could manage were on each other 4 times. i remember grenades exploding right next to me and being engulfed in flame as it knocked me away yet still surviving. it was unreal, i was invincible that game. it was the most perfect gaming experience i will ever have.
a couple of my other favorites are:
when myself, my brother, and a friend beat super mario bros. 3. i had never even gotten close before world 8 is so hard. however that was also my worst gaming moment cuz when we got to bowser my friend played against him first and died twice, then i was about to take the controller but he gave it to my brother instead and he said "come on, its not like he's gonna beat it on the first try" and then my bro defeated bowser and i never got to face him. one day i hope to get back to bowser!
and finally i'm gonna have to go with two thing in tetris on the NES. one was when i got 175 lines, which was not amazing in its own right cuz my best score is 191 which i've gotten twice, but i got 32 tetri that game which was 14 more than ever before and when my previous best score had been 199 thousand i ended up with 363,155 points. i still hope to one day break 200 lines. the other tetris memory was in college we had a couple bands (Long Since Forgotten and Fire When Ready) play at my house and after the show one of the bands was playing tetris on my NES and they couldn't even get to 100 lines. so i decided to show off and played one game, i destroyed my previous best by like 15 lines and got 169. the guys in the band were going crazy. they were like shouting when i made some sick moves. they were so amazed that they starting filming me after i was had finished on the same tape that they had recorded their show on and they were saying i was a tetris god. nothing like being popular cuz of a single great game of tetris.
anyway now i'm off to try to get SMG at toys r us!!
