ET is hard not nearly as hard as the ORIGINAL metal gear solid on NES my god that game takes a long time to beat since its mostly luck but with a bit of skill AND luck its possible but ET dosent even come close in terms of aggrevation in that sense

I imagine MGS was playable though, IMO ET was not...

Play ET. If you make it to the ship before the timer/pie runs out it will be the most epic win ever. You have a better chance of dividing by zero.

:roll:

I always fell into random holes and got chased by pedo people in the very brief time that I played that game last year.

It's called metal gear, solid is a PSX game. The sequel was Snake's revenge. Loved those games.

Never had a nintendo system until the gameboy colour. Used to rep a Megadrive, used to adore that system. Got home one day, my dad had sold it and got me a PS1. Was destroyed.

Agreed. I have Metal Gear on NES and it's a bitch. Still have my NES, Super NES, Sega Genesis with both generations of Sega CD, Playstation, N64, Dreamcast and gamecube.

I still have a working 2600 and several games, including the E.T. one that everyone dreads lol. It wasn't my console, as it was made about a decade before I was born in '91, and we just recently rediscovered it in storage last year. :rockout:

My parents got me the 2600 in the early 80's it was my first gaming machine so many good memories Space Invaders, Pitfall, Pac Man and yes i even had E T imho the worst game of all time.

LOL, I think we need to patent these ideas :)

If its mint, boxed and sealed. It should make a nice price in the future (or even now)

Gotta love the SNES, they last FOREVER! Amazing really when current consoles seem to die if you play them for more then 2hrs solid lol :)
