When I was 14, I got in a flame war with another kid in the pokemon forum. I dropped a “What do you know? You’re probably 12!” He replied “Yeah, I’m 12. This is a pokemon forum. What are you doing here?”

I felt so thoroughly burned that I stayed out of internet arguments as much as possible from that point forward. A real valuable lesson early on. Thanks, GameFAQs!

1998. I need help with Final Fantasy 7.

Buddy recommends this site I’ve not heard about, Game Facks.

It did not contain game FAQ’s.

Also, whitehouse.com, as was the style of the time.

It is funny how GameFAQs is so old I end up going to posts on there about the original releases of games when I’m looking for help with a remake. Props to the site admins for keeping it up this long, so many other resources have withered away over the years.

I hope there’s a giant archive of these guides we can download, should anything happen to that site. Any older games you might be stuck on, this is about the only place to go for help.

And I’ll tell you now, old games can be obscure as shit. They didn’t care if you finished them or not.

There is and I will share it with any and everyone willing to seed it.

Escuse me, but I’m aging at just the right rate. Not rapidly, not slowly, but exactly as the universe planned it as we hurtle through time and space on our planet size space ship.

So I basically started using it the year it was made. Cool.

Kind of similar story of ancient gaming tragedy, I was a young lad going for 100% in FFVII, and after spending however many hours getting everything ready, I saved right by Emerald Weapon, deciding to tackle him right after school the next day. Aaaaand then I came back to everything on the memory card being gone due to some dumb glitch. Still never beat Emerald Weapon.

RIP Kolanaki’s SNES

I loved Secret of Mana and on several playthroughs, the hardest boss, for me, has always been that damn tiger in the witch’s castle. When it zig-zagged like a spike ball, the chances of getting wiped were huge. One hit = unconscious.

Coincidentally, i was just thinking about this site the other day because i was so sick of video walkthroughs!

RebekahWSD, 17 dni temu

The only time I like a video walkthrough is for some visual based puzzles because screenshots aren’t always precise enough.

The other 99 percent? Screw that, gone a step by step guide damn it!

Bring back gameFAQs!

lol I remember discovering this website as a kid, thinking I could stop buying strategy guides for like 10 to 20 bucks, then proceeding to print like 60 pages at a time. Bless my mom for not complaining about the paper and ink!

ICastFist, 17 dni temu

Printers worked better back then. Also the cartridges came with more ink lol

I printed out a list of gaps in THPS2 from GameFAQs. I didn’t realize it was 80 pages. My mom was really upset. I think I got every single one though.

When I was a kid, I played Black and White constantly and my dad printed off a complete guide from GameFAQs and put it in a binder with page protectors and everything. It was so awesome.
