I have literally tried everything to get all those stars. I have watched youtube videos, looked up cheats, and found step by step instructions, and still gave up with only 98 stars


I've actually been replaying this game over the past few months. I just finished getting all 120 stars last week (started with 30 something stars from using an old save file)

Beyond the standard six stars for each level, you can get a seventh star by collecting 100 coins within the level. This is a bigger pain in the arse than it sounds (especially for the later levels) but with some determination it can be done.

Also, some of the mushroom dudes in the castle have stars. If you talk to them, they will give them to you.

The levels where you unlock the cap blocks also have eight red coins in each.

I think the above is what most people are missing if they are stuck.

Beat that one, but only after a broken controller and an increase in my BP.

Never beat Mike Tyson's Punchout all the way through in one sitting. Always got beat by Machoman. Beat Tyson plenty of times though using the code.

The fact that the notes reset every time you left the world drove me crazy. Always got to 98 or 99 and realized I missed one.

I think the main reason I never beat Turok 64 is that I discovered that "ultimate code" or whatever that allows you to warp between levels and get all the weapons, etc. not long after buying it.

I actually put in an honest effort into it once and got to the third world I think.

Never got the snow camo on MGS3 and couldn't beat the boss lady. I'll probably end up replaying that one though. I never beat the last boss on FF12 but I only tried a few times.

You should definitely give MGS3 another shot, especially if you have played the others. The ending is pretty cool

I watched the ending on youtube. Never played MGS4 because I don't have a PS3 but I loved MGS2.

This is what I like about GTA4. Been playing it since 2008 - still haven't beat it. But I can go months without touching it and when I play it again I know exactly what I need to do and where I need to go.


GTA 4 sucks. The main character is about as interesting as a doorknob, the missions are brutally repetitive, dark, and uninteresting, and the gameplay hasn't evolved in 10 years. I really don't understand why so many people love this game

How's FF3 going? I played the ROM and got to the Phantom train part, then idk what happened to my save file. Are you playing the Snes version or ps1 version (FF6)


SNES version. Probably have a good 6-8 hours left. Been playing for about a month now when we've had free time. So hopefully we'll get it within the next week.
