| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 6:27pm - Sacreligion ""] glass joe fucks my world up |
| ________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 8:05pm - Ryan_M ""] i can't get past soda popinski. the only way me or my brothers ever got to mike tyson is by cheating with our game genie code. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 9:21pm - xmikex ""] i couldnt even beat tyson with game genie. i owned super macho man though. that spin punch inspired all of hardcore dancing from 1995 on. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 10:03pm - DomesticTerror ""] I KO'd Tyson once. once. But nobody believes me... |
| _________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 10:13pm - xmikex ""] count me in on that. i don't buy it. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 10:13pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, I call shenanigans. |
| _________________________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 10:18pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""] if one more person says shenanigans im gonna shoot a motherfucker up in this piece ! |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 10:19pm - RichHorror ""] Hey xmikex, what's the name of that restaraunt you like? You know, the one with all the goofy shit on the walls? |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 11:00pm - Rofl Master ""] If you can't beat tyson, beat your wife. don flamenco? |
| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 9:26am - xmikex ""] hahahaha Shenanigans |
| ___________________________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:09pm - i_am_not_you_thankfully ""] I think I beat Tyson once, when I was 6 or 7. I have yet to ever replicate the feat. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:12pm - xmikex ""] if you beat tyson you'd remember it |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:39pm - Beaver McD ""] Outside of Tyson I always thought that Mr. Sandman was really hard. Everyone up until that point is pretty simple. Great Tiger was always one of my favorites. Bald Bull can be a pain in the ass if you don't know how to time his bull charge but if you can he is simple. Other than that they all have a weakness. King Hippo was so hard when you didn't know what to do while fighting him, he would just beat the hell out of you. I have beat Tyson once, and never again. It was an accomplishment that I will never forget. xmikex is right if you beat Tyson you would remember it simply because it took so long to finally do it that once you did you told everyone. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:50pm - ShadowSD ""] One of the greatest games ever. Although it took months to get there, I beat Tyson and Another World Circuit in my youth. The question is, who here can beat King Hippo without using any body blows? |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:54pm - BlackoutRick ""] It would take forever, but just keep hitting him in the mouth when he opens it. Yeah, best game ever outside of Megaman 2 and Godzilla for NES. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:54pm - Anthony nli ""] i wanna get one of those USB NES controllers so I can play this shit on an emulator and it'll feel like the real deal. All my NES does is blink it's red light at me. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 12:59pm - BlackoutRick ""] Take the game out and blow inside of it!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Everyone who has an NES has done this. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 1:22pm - xmikex ""] Sandman was hard, and those shuffles he did with his hands made you so goddamn anxious you'd fuck up. Plus he was a terrifying motherfucker. Now he washes windows on Crescent St in Brockton. Bald Bull was the bane of my existence for the longest time. It took me forever to beat him in that rematch. I think by the end we really came to respect one another. |

"I drink to prepare for a fight. Tonight, I am very prepared" His original name was Vodka Drunkinski, but when they brought it to the U.S. all the PC fucks said that wasn't a good influence. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 1:32pm - xmikex ""] That's interesting because Glass Joe's original name was Joe Christianni. Nintendo changed it because they thought it sounded way too pussy. |

"I drink to prepare for a fight. Tonight, I am very prepared" His original name was Vodka Drunkinski, but when they brought it to the U.S. all the PC fucks said that wasn't a good influence. Ha, that's interesting. Oddly enough though, I'm glad they went with Soda Popinksi, the joke is still there but just more subtle, which is more effective sometimes. When that quote popped on the screen, we all knew he was talking about alcohol, he didn't have to get dizzy and vomit when Doc Brown said "Stick and Move!" for us to get the joke. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 2:40pm - Beaver McD ""] Another awesome part of this game was after you would beat a Title Bout when you would have to run after Doc Brown on the bike and you are wearing the the pink track suit. I don't know why it is pink, but Doc Brown on the bike is so funny looking. [img] |

| ________________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 6:45pm - DomesticTerror ""] i swear i ko'd him. i knocked him down so many goddam times and he kept getting back up. the 3rd round was almost over and i figured he'd just get up again and win by decision, but he collapsed. i considered it life affirming. he was pretty easy to beat by tko once you could survive those left/right combos he'd pull after like 1:20. speaking of opponents getting up...what was up with the ref stopping the count for everyone except for little mac? Bald Bull should not be allowed to continue the fight by getting on his feet at the 9 count... |
| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 6:48pm - xmikex ""] i smell scandal |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 24,2006 7:09pm - DomesticTerror ""] c'mon, xmikex! i thought us brockton guys stuck together. |

Bald Bull should not be allowed to continue the fight by getting on his feet at the 9 count... Mario may be an excellent plumber, adventure hero, and shrume fiend, but he's quite the crooked ref. And how about the judges? With some of the boxers in the game, you can hit them within an inch of a TKO while they haven't touched you once, and still lose the decision every time. The instruction booklet called this a "hometown advantage", still I have to wonder how Little Mac, despite all those hours he put in strutting around New York City in his pink sweatsuit, doesn't get a hometown advantage in his own city. Then again, maybe I answered my own question. |
