I've gotten to stage 4 of MvC2 -- I am so bad that I cannot pass it. Please ridicule me for my lack of expertise in fighting games.

Final Fantasy VIII I am on Disc 2 and just got out of prison. Love that I'm replaying this game in ten years.

I really suck at completing my list.

That is all.

So is there tons of "post-game" content? I think I recall you saying you already beat the game.

I'm going to play SotN after Metroid is finished. I have the Xbox 360 version and there's nothing even resembling an instruction booklet. Anything I should know? I'd like to play without a walkthrough or maps, but if it's as cryptic as Metroid I'm sure I'll resort to them eventually.

Bone, w/o giving too much away there's two ways to beat SOTN... a 100% or a 200% which literally doubles the scope of the game.

You can get the bad ending at the half way point. You can get just over 100% up to this point.

The good ending requires you go the full length of the game.

Just to be even weirder, you can actually get over 200%. I read somewhere the max is like 202.6% or something odd like that.

Yeah, if you reveal the entire map for the castle and its inverted state it adds up to about 202%. It's like Donkey Kong with that nonsense.

There are 5 or six possible endings as well. Hell of a game.

Also...all of the best content and fan service in SOTN is "hidden" in the second half of the game. Accordingly, you really need to play through all of it to get the full experience.

pick Cabal and spam the Hard punch button and QCF HP and when your meter fills just use QCF HP+LP its cheap as hell but you will easily beat the game.

Well I thought I was some kind of Metroid badass because I made it all the way to Mother Brain without dying.

And then I died.

I respawn with 30 life and 1 missile. Balls. Really don't feel like playing right now.
