I remember tom telling his dad he should let me lose mike tyson's punch out and let him keep it so he can teach me a lesson and his dad agreed. i told my parents and they didn't care. they said "next time dont bring friends over that take your things. choose better friends" lol Not to much later i stopped hanging out with him.

Deadly Towers would be one of those games to me, I played this game every now and again as a kid and it was so tuff but I liked it. It was part of my Nintendo Case of games I never traded. I revisted now to come and realize it's pretty much the OG of Demon Souls if not more hardcore. One thing I just realized too is the password system (which I never jotted down) it allows you to continue with all items and stats of your previous play, although you still have to start from the begining again.
If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.

Well, you make sound worse than it is. You just start on the edge of town, like you always start by the one cave in the first Zelda.

I guess I never looked at it that way, I never made it to any other towns. lol

It is just the town, the hidden dungeons you need to enter to make money and find the shops, then the 7 bell towers with the bosses behind the town.

Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest was the first Castlevania game I ever played. And now it's my favorite series of all time.

I really like Croc, which beyond some neat music and nice graphics for the time, is incredibly clunky to play and just not all that fun
man I still can't bring my self to dislike Croc. Now I'm gonna get that theme song stuck in my head. Another bad 3d platformer that I still like is Gex 64.
