Cousin Vinnie Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I don't wanna spam the forum with links to my website, but I am proud of some of the articles I've written this month because I have been putting these off for 15 years or so. I hope you enjoy these, and I'd like to hear your feedback.

+-^CrossBow^- Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 You didn't think that the Evil Magician at the end of Crossbow was good enough for this list? I still find it to be a pretty impressive final boss. Now if you know exact where the place the crosshairs just before he comes active, then he is also very easy to kill but still? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikebloke Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Had fun reading them! I actually own all the pal grey box carts which is quite a few so there's a lot of stuff I recognise, so had fun reading it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...where is the love for Evil Magician? Quick(est) path to him*... 4 STEPS: Green Path (Desert) Blue Path (Cave/Cavern) Blue Path (Castle Drawbridge Entrance) Red Path (Inside Castle Hall) Or take one of the two longest routes... 8 STEPS [COVERS ALL AREAS - NO REPEATS]: Green Path (Desert) Green Path (Village/Town) Red Path (Volcano) Red Path (River/Lake) Green Path (Jungle) Blue Path (Cave/Cavern} Blue Path (Castle Drawbridge Entrance) Red Path (Inside Castle Hall) 8 STEPS [COVERS ALL AREAS - NO REPEATS]: Red Path (Village/Town) Red Path (Volcano) Red Path (River/Lake) Green Path (Jungle) Green Path (Desert) Blue Path (Cave/Cavern) Blue Path (Castle Drawbridge Entrance) Red Path (Inside Castle Hall) ...Perhaps he deserves another consideration, @Cousin Vinnie[?] *Need to get passed some inside castle hall obstacles to 'drop in' on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electronicsibley Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I’ve read every article, and enjoyed them all. I’m even using your reviews to prioritize what games I plan to add to my collection next. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about including this weird a-hole, but I wanted to limit the article to Final Bosses of games that could be beaten. That's being said, I may add the Bronx Bomber... as easy as it is to get to him and kick his head in. But more importantly.... "Drugs, Joe?"

gilsaluki Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Funny. On your website you rave about Ricky Vicky, but it's not in your Top 10.... R & V, all hype? I understand hype, given the silly season we just went through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R & V, all hype? I understand hype, given the silly season we just went through. I haven't officially reviewed it yet. When I do, it will compete with Crystal Quest for the top spot of best homebrew and best overall game. So... it will be #1 or #2 ... maybe #3.... still trying to get a better grasp of it before I do the review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 Also, after your suggestions, I added Bronx Bomber and the Evil Magician to the list of Final Bosses Ranked. Check out where they landed here: www.Atari7800Forever.com/finalbosses.html IF YOU DARE 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
