we've all had games that we love to play and eventualy get really really good at. So goo that maybe we can beat it flawlessly.

So tell me G & T, what games have you beat without dying? What is your proudest game accomplishment?

Mine was beating Super Star Wars without dying once. I played that game forever it seems. Great game .... one of the greatest

Other proud accomplistments were clearing MC and BWL when that actualy ment something and obtaining neutral with Iksar in EQ (I was a Barb.).

Competing in a Smash Tournament and making it to the second round made me happy too hehe

    Raijin Quickfoot was once a regular here.

    He claims with great sincerity that he once beat every game on Mario All-Stars, in sequence, on a single life.

    The only ones that come to mind are Super Mario Bros., Megaman 2, and Ninja Gaiden. (I warped for SMB, though, from 1-2 to 4-1). I could never quite get through Contra on one man.

    edit: And my proudest gaming accomplishment will be 5-starring Expert in GH2, just as soon as I do it.

    I borrowed Rygar for the NES from a friend of mine.
    I had no direction booklet, and I never figured out that you can upgrade your weapons and stuff with all those stars you pick up.
    So I beat the game with the default weapon and no upgrades whatsoever.
    I bet less than 3% of this forum has ever played Rygar, and I bet less than 1% remembers the game enough to appreciate how hard this was to do.

    I had a lot of accompishments (server/global firsts) with my rogue back in classic/kunark EQ days, but that was also a very long time ago.

    I am part of that 1%. Color me impressed.

    Also, Sonic 1 and 2. Forgot about those.

    And if we're counting RPGs, I've beaten most of those without dying. But really, c'mon.

    Once you know the bullet patterns and the enemies, it's not that hard.
    I always had the most trouble at the boss of the ice field stage though, the jumping dude with the sliding flootballs.
    My perfect game efforts would always end there and only there.

    Once upon a time, I could beat Bionic Commando on one life. I think I beat it a couple times without even getting hit. I got so good at that game, I could beat most levels touching the ground an absolute minimum. (I seem to recall there was one level you could beat without touching the ground at all, but it has been so long (10+ years) that I could be misremembering.)

    I used to love sitting down and just tearing through that game. I don't think I ever tried it without hitting the ground, though. Probably not, since I always parked at that place down the big mineshaft near the beginning that had unlimited guys thrown at you so I'd fill up my health bar nice and early.

    Yeesh, Contra > Metal Slug. I never understood how friends of mine could play that game without giving up ten minutes later and curling up into a howling ball of rage. Least of all how someone of them could play it to a similar "beat with one hand behind their back" attitude...

    Games without dying... SMB, Super Mario 2, Super Mario 3, Jaleco Baseball (it's a joke, remember charging the mound?), Rygar (but with upgrades), Metal Gear: Solid... Viva Pinata? :P

    There may have been others, but I've slept and drank beer since then.

    Man, I got good at some shit as I kid but I can't say for certain what I've one-lifed.

    I've never played the NES version of Rygar but I could trash the Lynx version, which I understand is a port of the arcade version and very unlike what the NES got. Still a haaaard motherfucker. Could also trash Gates of Zendecon, which was pretty easy.

    I never owned LTTP but I borrowed / rented it enough to be able to 100% that shit on 1 life without turning the game off. That one is a definite, did it many times.

    Shadow Dancer... I would hazard to say I'd 1 lifed that. I had that shit memorized cold. No longer. Same with Castle of Illusion. Which I just rebought, too... need to fire up my genesis. Kid Chameleon... only w/ last boss warp, heh. TJ&E... probably, though chancing a present and getting a total bummer happened pretty often.

    I could 1 life SNES SFII & SSFII, dunno what difficulty I got to though. Probably just a notch or two above normal.

    edit: I don't recall ever dying in Silent Hill 2 or 3. I could 1life Mario World skipping most of the game but since lives flow like water I usually opted to play it fast & loose.
