    Default Games You've Beaten on the VERY FIRST Try

    Have you ever put a game you've never played into your console, picked up the controller, then went through the game without losing a single life?

    As far as I can remember, I've never done that before. Two lives yes, but never on the first.

    Has anybody ever done that before?

    Felix the Cat for the NES. It's... too... easy.

    And, uhm, at the rate I'm going, Wind Waker. Yikes!

    Wild Arms for the PSX. I just picked up the controller and played through. I saved a few times of course but I never died throughout the entire game. I've at least died playing pokemon blue a couple times...

    but still, I love Wild Arms for the plot.

    Holy crap. It's been a while.

    Well, I died a few times, but I beat Dynamite Dux on the Master System in about 15 minutes the first time I played it.

    Wind waker for sure, no question.
    Final Fantasy X - don't recall dying on this one.
    Actually, Final Fantasy 8-10 I really don't remember ever dying, thought they were all pathetically easy, althought I think I DID die once in FF8, don't remember.

    I'm sure there are 5-10 more RPG's that I never died in, just don't remember. As far as NON-rpg games go, I doubt I've finished any in the first life. If there was a chance of that, the game was probably so boring I shut it off.

    None I think. I died a few times in Felix the Cat for instance, but when I finished it I still had 23 lifes left.

    Two games that I can be called the MASTA on, first time I picked them up.

    ColecoVision Dr. Seuss' Fix-up the Mix-up Puzzler. Ha! I am far superior in the brain than this game ever expects! I breezed through the 16-piece puzzle in less than four hours.



    Atari 2600 Strawberry Shortcake. Ha! They thought making the clothing different colors would baffle a super-human mind such as the one which I have?! Fools! I defeated this in a mere ten hours.

    I don't think I've beaten a game on the first try, but I come close. Zelda WW for the cube I died once. And the stupid part was I died from a pig because I wanted to see if I could kill it... but it killed me. Didn't even give me a chance to get away too. It just killed me in one shot.

    Y'know, Strawberry Shortcake is into jeans now. And threatening comic writers with lawsuits.

    The new Bandai dolls have jeans on... I guess they wanted to contemporize the character or something. Not that I'm a Strawberry Shortcake fan or anything... I just watch a lot of Cartoon Network and Nick and they show the ads constantly.

    STUN Runner on the Lynx. An amazing copy of the landmark arcade game, and almost insultingly easy. It was a trade-off, I suspect, for playing on such a small screen.

    Clayfighter 33 1/3 n64. Me and a friend played through all the guys in around 30 minutes. It was a disapointment to say the least.

    Road Avenger for the Sega CD. I don't know what it is, but I played through the game entirely the very first time I played it, without losing one life. Maybe years of Dragons Lair type games has to do with it I then used to pop it in and win it this way at least once a week...sort of a relaxation ritual. I remember friends always coming by to watch me play through it...sort of like watching a cartoon!
