Jan Backing Track Posted September 14, 2020 Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 How the fuck do you 100% THPS1! Even with the manualing it's still challenging as shit to get some of those achievements. I can't even best Chad Muska in this skatepark level. Has anyone tried with the classic layout? That was extremely difficult to get some of those tapes and what not, I give my younger stuff credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted September 14, 2020 Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 I just do one goal one session at a time and save the point goals for last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One goal? lol. I mean sure when it gets to the last ones but I'm collecting at least a few per run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly just did a shit load of chaining combos with grinds, manuals, wallplants and flip tricks, and tried to find areas where I could keep them going as long as possible. Mapping specials to easy to remember controls is helpful too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I have no idea how I did that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 I swear I was better at video games when I was a kid. I got medals on every Star Fox 64 level as a child and that shit is HARD. I was definitely way better at Smash Bros as a teenager too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Mario collection just leaked and the games are just roms being emulated on the switch. Lazy of Nintendo to not even properly port the games for Marios 35 years but whatever. The emulators are. a good sign though, could hint that Nintendo plans on adding more n64/gamcube/wii games to the switch soon eventually through Nintendo online. Although hopefully the homebrew community will be able to do it much sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High score is 5k, sick score is 15k. In the new one, the high score is 10k and the sick score is 100k. They've bumped up scores so that the extra abilities can be taken into account. Plus in the originals I think the physics were more forgiving, you have a bit less weight and gravity to your characters so it made your air time longer.

Manuals make all the difference in the world though, I can't tell which I like better, but there sure was a certain challenge with the original.

I have been playing with a broken xbox controller, new one got delivered today, the game is suddenly a lot easier, I accidentally handicapped myself haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved banana bombing the fuck out of everyone even if it got my own guys. No never tried any new releases. On the odd occasion me and my mates play, I love trying different, wacky tactics. My favourite is what I call 'aggressive girdering'. Basically, instead of using the girders as a form of defense for my own worms, I use them around other worms to trap them so that they can't hit me and are forced to use/waste a teleport. It's daft, but great fun and pisses people off to no end 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the times I just would let them come close to me to plan this big attack, just to start myself and everyone on fire to destroy their plans and slide everyone into the drink.

Prior to that game, Armageddon probably was my favorite entry in the series. They have a bundle for both WMD and Battlegrounds for $35 ($5 more than WMD..) so just got that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only made it halfway through but it was all about the history of skateboarding and the culture of it. I guess the 2nd half is about the video games.
