Final Fantasy VII Part 25 Tork110 2015-07-20 | Much like the mayor's floor in Midgar Tower, this chocobo recruiting quest almost doesn't work, which had me very nervous about being able to complete this game.(I'm currently in the middle of moving, so expect less videos for the meantime.)
Final Fantasy VII Part 23 Tork110 2015-07-12 | Not Midgar! I can't believe we're free! I wouldn't even mind if the credits rolled now.
Final Fantasy VII Part 21 Tork110 2015-07-10 | "I heard he can survive a blast from a Godzilla-like creature." "That's just crazy talk."
Final Fantasy VII Part 20 Tork110 2015-07-09 | You just write bad Final Fantasy fanfiction. Hojo makes it!Red XIII, such a great character that even the spinoffs forget about him most of the time.
Final Fantasy VII Part 19 Tork110 2015-07-08 | I guess Scarlet invented optic camouflage technology in this remake.
Final Fantasy VII Part 18 Tork110 2015-07-07 | Shinra Building, Level 65 - Just as boring in 8 bit as it was in 32.
Final Fantasy VII Part 17 Tork110 2015-07-06 | It looks like "a silver pole in front of oblivion" to me.Sorry for not picking the stairways. Despite the funny dialogue, it's otherwise boring to watch.
Final Fantasy VII Part 16 Tork110 2015-07-05 | I never want to see the abandoned construction site between sector 5 and 6 ever again.You know, Elmyra, if people are going to use you as a daycare center, you might as well start charging.
Final Fantasy VII Part 15 Tork110 2015-07-04 | Marlene betrays Tifa and chooses Team Aeris. And Tifa let her run the bar, too!
Final Fantasy VII Part 14 Tork110 2015-07-03 | Slippery slope: One day you're stomping on church flowers, the next day you're murdering lots of people.
Final Fantasy VII Part 13 Tork110 2015-07-02 | I will never understand game designers' fascination with sewers.
Final Fantasy VII Part 12 Tork110 2015-07-01 | Right up to now, the game was pretty faithful to the original, but as you see, they screwed up Heidegger's laugh! Unforgivable!
Final Fantasy VII Part 11 Tork110 2015-06-30 | Every time my crime boss tosses a prostitute at me she turns out to be either a terrorist or a man.
Final Fantasy VII Part 10 Tork110 2015-06-29 | If I could hack the original game, I would make it so it was revealed that Aeris's plan to get Cloud to dress like a woman was an elaborate hoax.
Final Fantasy VII Part 9 Tork110 2015-06-28 | I just met this woman and she's already telling me about her Ex-. HELP!
Final Fantasy VII Part 8 Tork110 2015-06-27 | I got stuck here because Aeris's mom blocked my way and I thought we were just skipping the sleeping scene. Which is funny, because the first time I played the real FF7, I also got stuck in the construction area between Aeris's house and the playground.My new girlfriend is already jealous and stalking me. I really know how to pick em.
Final Fantasy VII Part 7 Tork110 2015-06-26 | There's such a thing as being too enthusiastic for Church.
Final Fantasy VII Part 6 Tork110 2015-06-25 | The Airbuster fight goes on for a while. Boy do I miss Limit Breaks.Running around to all the monitors was still less annoying than getting all three to push a button at once.
Final Fantasy VII Part 5 Tork110 2015-06-24 | This game would have had an entirely different plot had Shinra not built an air duct big enough to fit Barret.Stop healing yourself, Dorkface!
Final Fantasy VII Part 4 Tork110 2015-06-23 | Young Cloud wanted to join SOLDIER despite his hearing problems.So is the guy who sells items named Tyler?Note that the weapon and armor shop appears to sell everything. I really wish I had asked for more money before the bombing.
Final Fantasy VII Part 3 Tork110 2015-06-22 | The train has so many empty cars, but sure, let's all get into one. And you were yelling at us earlier for not spreading out!I can really use an inn. I feel like I've run into every monster in the game so far.
Final Fantasy VII Part 2 Tork110 2015-06-21 | Ninja uses "squall." And that's how Cloud got mopey in those sequels/crossovers.Good thing that flowers are so cheap. I haven't been payed yet.
Final Fantasy VII Part 1 Tork110 2015-06-20 | I may seem like a small-time YouTube guy, but I've gotten my hands on a very early build of the Final Fantasy VII remake. I have to admit: the characters look flat.To my long time viewers (Do I have any?) I promise to cut out any grinding if it comes to that. (This demake is originally called Final Fantasy VII Advent Children and the ips can be found here: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/1657 Don't ask me where the rom can be found because I forget where I got it.)
Hailstorm Tork110 2015-04-28 | Just cleaning out my phone. This storm was much worse than it appears in this video. We were in a Target parking lot waiting for things to die down.
Bonks Adventure (NES) Ending Tork110 2015-04-28 | I was listening to a podcast about Bonk and decided to play this game. I did so well that I wish I had recorded the whole thing.
Deluxe Monopoly Tork110 2015-04-19 | A quick game of eight player Monopoly for the C64. There was going to be a ninth player, but the game doesn't like cheaters.
Super Mario Bros 2: Twenty Toad Tork110 2015-03-27 | I recently bought a Toad Amiibo. So I decided to upload a video of me beating SMB2 with just Toad. This has honestly been on my bucket list for a few years. This playthrough used no save states.Toad has been my favorite Nintendo character since I got the first issue of Nintendo Power in '88, and the Super Mario Super Show debuted the next year. I always picked him in Mario Kart.I struggled a bit in World 6 because I usually skip that place. I forgot where a couple mushrooms were.
Rockman 2 Endless Tork110 2015-01-21 | This video isn't endless. It's a rom hack of RockMan 2 which makes the game like the endless modes in Mega Man 9 & 10. You can find it here: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/2294I died because I thought there was no Quick Beam in that final room, and decided to goof off and pretend Mega Man was looking for the beam. Well, he got it.
Meanwhile, in the year 201X... Tork110 2015-01-15 | Based on a true story, until the tacked-on happy ending.
Racer II Tork110 2015-01-07 | This Atari BASIC program is found in an old game magazine. It was submitted by Jerry LeMaitre and can be found here: archive.org/details/Electronic_Fun_with_Computer_Games_Vol_02_No_04_1984-02_Fun_Games_Publishing_USI was going to post this back in October but I had problems with one line that used a special character. I finally fixed it by adding a line that used Atari BASIC's CHR$ function.
The Heist (Level 3) Tork110 2015-01-03 | If you were to tell me that you beat this level without using save states, I wouldn't believe you. This level hates Graham and hates you.I brought an extra key from the last level, and it really helps. I think it's still possible to beat this level without the extra key AND without grabbing the two keys in the trap pit, but only if you ignore that door to the left of the start of this level. I even wasted a key on one of the roaming security bots and I still had enough keys.The game loops through the first three levels at this point. I played level four, and it's just level one with a smaller time limit.
The Heist (Level 2) Tork110 2015-01-02 | You see that room with the four consecutive doors? No point to that, other than to waste your keys. And keys are rare in this game. Did you notice that I had a key left over? Keep that in mind for level 3.The orange ball in this level reminds me of Keystone Kapers, if that game was slower paced.
The Heist (Level 1) Tork110 2015-01-01 | Join Graham Crackers as he steals valuable paintings while avoiding a tricky security system. This difficult platforming game has been on my bucket list for a while. I've had problems getting it to work on my old CV emulator, but now I can finally see what the third level is like!
Christmas Games, Demos, & Fan Hacks Tork110 2014-12-22 | If you need a video to watch as you unwrap presents this week, consider this one. This video includes Christmas games, Christmas related games, and vaguely winter related stuff. Don't forget movie licenses that had some Christmas plot points.I am in no way affiliated with anyone mentioned in the cracked openings or demos.The Zelda part (a fan game quest for the Zelda Classics program) runs fine. I think my recording program is what makes it look so bad. (Original video deleted because a curse word sneaked in.)
UROV2: Great Sygian Abyss, Part 5, New Magencia, Ending Tork110 2014-12-11 | The final two floors of the Great Stygian Abyss. The 25th floor is tricky. You want to avoid touching that orb. The final floor has a lot of ground that causes you damage just by touching it. Just keep moving, and freeze the Black Knight. He throws oil flasks and that's it. Your reward is a mayor, a ton of gold you don't need, and another magic sword, in case you want to dual wield those things.Here's my old video of the ending: youtube.com/watch?v=BRn7xo1sh4ULet me explain the end of this video: I was planning on skipping the Northeast Cave, because I always assumed you had to have a second player to conquer it, (and since I only have one copy of the game, I've never done it myself.) I since saw a strategy that involved using a mayor as a second player, so I thought I would use the Mayor of New Magencia. Turns out that while you can SORTA beat the second room, the third room is impossible because you need the mayor to pick up a key for you, which he can't. Alas, my emulator can't simulate the link connection, either. I'm thinking about making one last video about that cave.
UROV2: Great Stygian Abyss, Part 4 Tork110 2014-12-08 | You have to collect the southern mushroom in this first room or you'll not be able to get the key you need to complete this floor.3:15 This floor is a lot like the Southwest Cave except now you can't touch the switches directly and you're on that annoying conveyor belt.5:16 You'll have to go in all four directions to push every pressure plate to finish the floor.7:15 After traveling through the arrows, just avoid touching them and reach the ladder on the top left. Remember, if a monster travels on an arrow and lands on you, you'll be instantly killed.8:18 Travel upwards until you're below the room with the skeleton and the eep epp. Once again you want the skeleton to destroy the crumbling wall and the eep eep to travel until it hits a switch. Flipping that switch will cause many more crumbling walls to appear, which will allow you to complete the floor.9:50 This floor is tricky. You're goal is to get the heart key and take the portal next to the entrance, but you'll have to manipulate the eep eeps. By destroying each cobweb, the eep eeps can push the barrels out of your way, but you have to make sure they don't push any barrel into a corner that will block your progress. At one point, I used the star wand just to be safe, and I pushed several eep eeps into the portals, where they get stuck in an infinite arrow loop.15:34 Just touch all the fake stairs and return to the entrance.16:32 The lower right screen has an invisible floor. The upper right screen has boulders than can be destroyed by regular weapons.
UROV2: Great Stygian Abyss, Part 3 Tork110 2014-12-07 | The first room is another annoying level where you have to manipulate the eep eeps. This time you need four of them to press pressure plates for you (and you'll be trapped if you press them yourself.) My strategy was to bounce them into their rooms and push a boulder in front in case they kept bouncing. Not the best strategy and it'll probably take a while before all four doors line up for you. And don't forget to destroy the cobweb.The second room is straight forward but you'll have to use the orb to find the hidden exit.
UROV2: Great Stygian Abyss, Part 2 Tork110 2014-12-06 | Including one of the most memorable puzzles of the game: The Pie Factory.In the first room, you have to use the hourglass to break up the boulders. You can use the eep eep to hit it, but I just decided to use the ping pong paddle and run for it.3:45 The Pie Factory! You have eight chances to make four pies go through a series of conveyor belts until they reach either storage or rejection. You'll have to push the pies four times (by pressure plates) to successfully complete one storage, but you get a break between the 2nd and 3rd try, and there's portals that make your life easier.10:28 First stick a few eep epps at the lower part and throw the switch so they can keep hitting the plates for you. After you get the key and move to the east screen, you'll have to wait for the skeletons to break the walls to allow the other eep eeps to hit the necessary switches for you.
UROV2: Great Stygian Abyss, Part1 Tork110 2014-12-03 | The Great Stygian Abyss has 26 floors, and it will throw what it has at you. If you decide to use a difficulty besides Easy, good luck. Lots of food and potions are a must. The boots are also recommended, for floor 8.I'm not sure why I haven't dumped the boomerang. Consider it a running gag in this playthrough.
UROV2: Texas Bat and Southwest caves Tork110 2014-11-30 | Before we go to the last dungeon, I have three more side caves I haven't visited. I cover two in this video before heading to the Great Stygian Abyss. The third might be covered afterwards.1:27 The bat cave is near Minoc and the Cavern of Selfishness. In the first room, the bats will always respawn no matter how many times you clear part of the room out. The solution is to use the friendly horn. Now you have a hidden path open to you. In the Texas room just collect the gems and leave. I could have done this much earlier.6:12 In the first room of the Southwest cave, just collect mushrooms. In the second, flip each switch from the bottom up until you can collect the coins.
UROV2: Cavern of Pride Part 3, Skara Brae Tork110 2014-11-22 | 1:27 You have to collect at least three hammers in this room. It's best to collect the mushrooms slowly so you have enough chances. Each mushroom either gives you an enemy or an item, depending on what the symbol in the top left corner is.The star wand is required to remove a barrier in this dungeon and the next one. It can also create a barrier, but it's not very useful. Plus, it costs 4 stars to use, which is a lot even for Mariah.
Tecmo World Wrestling Tork110 2014-11-21 | I'm going to get you! You just wait! A little more before I get you! I almost have it! When I'm done, this move is going to be so good!Well, I thought it was funny.
UROV2: Cavern of Pride, Part 2 (Magic Sword & Armor) Tork110 2014-11-20 | West is the Magic Sword. East is the Magic Armor. In the first room to the west you can easily screw up the jar maze. Also, you have to touch the face statues to push rocks out of your way.In the second room, touching the dark parts of the floor creates more buzz saws to dodge.In the third, you have to be patient with the jaggers. You can kill some of them, but you might end up killing them in between yourself and the switch.The fourth room is one of the most memorable in the game, and definitely something that couldn't happen in the original. You have to push all the eep eeps into the arrows before you do it yourself. If you don't, an eep eep will destroy you. If you are the last one, you'll destroy the last eep eep and open the gate. Here's an extra boomerang as your reward.You have to fight several enemies in a small arena to get the magic sword.I dropped my regular sword, but you might want to keep yours. Two swords are great against the cyclops.10:15 The second room to the east is a pain. You have to hit the moving arrow just when the disappearing arrow lines up with you, but you have very little time to do it on the right. 14:13 In the room with the magic armor, you can collect an unlimited supply of star keys by stepping on the pressure plate. The orb will give you an idea of where the secret rooms are. The heart key is in the lower right of the screen, the anhk key is behind the heart doors, and the magic armor is below the exit in the upper right corner.
UROV2: Cavern of Pride, Part 1 (Ping pong paddle route) Tork110 2014-11-19 | Yeah, this dungeon is tricky. Oh, by the way, I hope you don't immediately die after the whirlpool. If you do, you get sent back to Lord Britian's Castle and have to steal another boat.The Cavern of Pride is located in the basement of the Cove. So you have a mini-dungeon before the main one.The first room of the Cavern has hidden teleport spaces. And the first ladder you come across takes you back outside. I think the hammer is there in case you mess up the jar and barrel pushing puzzle.In the second room, every box turns into a tiger.In the third room, most of the trolls will ignore you unless you get to the center table in the center room.The fourth room is the Cavern's main gimmick. You have four paths, each leading to a damn good item. All are worth collecting, although only one is necessary.To the north, you can collect a ping pong paddle. It can stun many enemies, toggle switches and collect mushrooms. Definitely one of the best items in both games.
UROV2: Lord Britishs Castle (revisited), Serpents Hold Tork110 2014-11-16 | We have two more mayors to go. Right now I'm taking a break to explore a couple of side areas.Lord British doesn't tell you directly where to go, so I'll say it: Your next destination is the Cavern of Pride, and to reach it you need to take a boat. The clue you need was found at the Buccaneer's Den. You have to drive your boat into a whirlpool.I showed off part of the main castle's basement in the first Runes of Virtue 2 video, but I forgot to show off the most important part. You can go through this area and get a star key, which unlocks a door to a portal. This portal takes you straight to the eight portals in The Lyceum, so it's an alternate to going to Yew and Moonglow.Serpent's Hold is an optional area. The only person there tells you what you can get in the Cavern of Pride. You also have a basement full of monsters.
