Ever resumed somebody else's saved game?

I remember doing it in my first copy of Pokemon stadium that I bought from EBGames. I couldn't delete it, It had mewtwo in there!

Also, I got Ocarina of time a while back. There were two saved games on it already. So I started my own..and I could not get Epona...I know lame, whatever. So I ended up beating the game with the guy who had epona. I wanted the Goron sword okay?!..I ended up beating Ganondorf without the goron sword later on...but I just wanted to finally see the ending after 7years of playing it on and off...

I don't recall it being difficult to get the horse (I assume that is who Epona is). I was literally trudging through this game and I had the horse. I finally gave up when I got to the "light dungeon" or something. The game was just plain boring as hell. From your post it sounds like I made the right decision.
