What myth did you believe in the most and lose hours of your life trying to pull off? For me it was the Sky Temple. The 'tip' i got was draw and place the master sword on the time pedestal 100 times in a row...
No really a myth, but there's this combo in Tekken 3 where Yoshimitsu sits down and the screen turns black and he hovers across the screen attacking everything. Something like that. Anyways, I did it once and could never pull it off again no matter how many times I tried. Its a complicated combo. Same thing with Space Jam the game. Michael Jordan can stretch his arm like in the movie. Did that once and then never pulled it off again.
from what i understand you actual can revive aerith,well sort of it involves switching yourPS controler to the player 2 slot and then talking to an npc in the temple after words you get aerith as a ghost in your party roster.
My Grandmother was and still is a intense Diablo 2 gamer and has found everything in the game you could imagine and the gem stone button actually helps with finding more gems and such to help you through the game. I mentioned this to her and she said actually it did assist in one of her runs on the hardest difficulty. Her and a friend from battlenet taught me all kinds of secrets and tricks to that game. Also the cow level was always funny as a small child to watch my grandmother play and yell "die you beefy bastard" 😂 i honestly dont remember if she said that or not but it was to funny not to say.
My battle against gaming myths peaked with Metal Gear Solid 2 when it released in November 13, 2001. I was a mod in the Game Winners forums and we were flooded with various trolls and theories about how to play as Solid Snake during the plant section. People were absolutely convinced because there was actual video of Solid Snake shown during some of the trade shows battling a harrier near the Washington Bridge and snippets of him on the plant in full sneaking suit gear. Mind you this release was right after 9/11 and if you look at the source material for the script in Document of Metal Gear Solid 2, you can read that they actually had plans to show Arsenal Gear crashing into NY among other things. I spent hours and hours debunking theories and banning trolls. People were just so desperate to not believe Hideo Kojima did a bait and switch and that it was just locked away due to 9/11 or that there was some trick to unlocking him. Even to this day.... well played Hideo..... well played indeed.
I feel like the reason it didn’t appear was because it would’ve been similar to the naked code for Lara Croft which was more well known than the one for Samus.
"As historically accurate as possible" in a series about an ancient conspiracy fighting an ancient conspiracy over control of distant past future tech. Sounds legit.
I blew into cartridges for years...decades, really. I spent so much time trying to unlock all bonds, though the way I heard to unlock it was different. I tried to revive Aeris. And I definitely tried to unlock Luigi. I probably would have fallen for the Ocarina of Time ones had I been aware of them...and many others.
The madden curse is very real my friend... Odell beckam only caught 25 catches the year following his madden cover and has had team troubles ever since. Calvin johnson has his worst statistical season and missed 2 games due to injury the year his madden cover debuted. As for tom brady, he didn't win the superbowl that year so thats something 😂
you can totally prevent Aerith's death....just don't go to the Temple of the Ancients & stay on disc 1 indefinitely. There, you saved her from being murdered by Sephiroth :P also, don't forget EGM's "unlock Sonic & Tails in Melee" "prank"....a lot of fans fell for that one.
you can actually revive aerith, by pressing L1 + circle in the church with the 2nd controller you must have done the method to get her to appear as her "ghost" to get this to work
I will never believe that blowing on a Nintendo cartridge didn't help in some way. All I know is that I could try to load a cartridge 20 different times and fail, but I'd blow on it once and it suddenly worked.
12:30 Yeah, just stop playing the story line that leads to her death and she'll forever be alive. You can't continue the story but you also will never lose Aerith.
WRONG!!!! you can actually revive aerith, by pressing L1 + circle in the church with the 2nd controller you must have done the method to get her to appear as her "ghost" to get this to work
Goldeneye HAS to be the most successful video game based on a movie EVER! If there is one that surpasses, then I'm not aware of it. I don't include shadow of Mordor because it's based on a universe, not a specific film.
Can't revive but can glitch it to where she's still in your party. Just gotta hope the game doesn't crash. Fingers cross they make an Easter egg on remaster where you can save her somehow. Then again a lot of shit would change
the Aerith myth was in part true, some guys even managed to put Aerith back into the game again, you can use her until the end, but she has almost no new dialog, so the dev at some point thought about reviving her but got scrapped for some reason. man that image of her getting pierced by the blade still give me chills after all these years..
people also believed there was a cow dimension in WoW. The devs deliberately encouraged the myth by putting a tip on the loading screen that said "there is no cow level". Since the devs often put hints for upcoming content on the loading screen, people took this waaay too seriously (as they presumably intended). The real mystery here is why anyone even wanted a cow level/dimension in any game.
If you had a GameShark you could access all the Bonds since they all still in the assets on the game cartridge; they were not "removed" as the video alleges, they were rendered inaccessible through normal means.
Actually, there are frequencies kids can hear adults cannot hear. As we get older, we lose some of the range of hearing we used to have. Could they cause kids to die, sure if they were playing PewDiePie or Miley Cyrus.
WTF? The other bonds were in the game.... I remember having like 80 selectable characters ranging from the different bonds to all the henchmen in the game...
Sorry none of the Tom Holland movies even placed in the top 3 of all spidey films ranked. You seemed very passionate about those films/Tom Holland's interpretation of the character. Maybe next time.
Some others: -There are hidden backstage areas in WWF No Mercy for N64. -In N64's Goldeneye, Mayday and Oddjob secretly appear in some missions and Xenia will appear on the Frigate if you wait a long time.
What are you talking about. Bomb lava sky temple. Took me like 10 minutes to get the sweet spot, but if you have max health and all the required items then it's doable.
You mean in a literal sense? I can see that. You could poke someones eye out with the point of the triforce. Or put a dragonball in a sock and swing it around like morningstar.
Where's the Cow Level? The myth about Diablo 1. Blizzard even inserted "there's no cow level" into starcraft cheat codes and then later added it to diablo 2.
I still have the EGM issue with Sheng Long. If you look at the name and location of the reader that sent in how to fight him, she was from Fuldigan, HA (FOOLED AGAIN, HA)
...wait...did a professional narrator just say "supposably"?? No hate intended, but it's "supposEDly". As in "supposed". Yea, I have to. And, again, I mean this correction in a polite way, not a hateful way.
Really, terrified of Lavender Town? Ok..... I love Lavender Town. My fav music and such. What actually happened was lots of kids had headaches. No deaths, no throwing themselves out of windows, and NO change to the international release of the game. Also, Pikablu. LOL Is actually Marrill. One more thing! MissingNo. lol
For the older gamers.... “If you pause the game 10 times during the slam dunk cutscene, you can break the backboard in Double Dribble” I don’t know where that myth came from, but we spent countless hours trying it...
Nr. 6 -- You CAN bring Aerith back. Just use a Action Replay and hack her into the party. She will not be in the story anymore, but she will stay in the party.
Playing video games will make hair grow on your palms. I know this because my older brother grew hair on his hands and his hands were always between his legs. I asked what he was doing and he said playing with his joystick.
cartridge pins arent copper, they're gold and dont corrode. they do get dirty, but part of the reason why blowing into NES carts was because the front load NES would have the spring pins wear out and the moisture in your breath could cause the contact to become slightly stronger, making it look like you fixed it.
Aeris can be "revived". This was very recently proven. She will technically be a ghost, but she can be found in the church. Its super complicated, but possible
That cartridge situation reminded me of a game I had on my commodore 64 which didn't load when the TV was on. During loading screens between levels we had to shut down the TV and wait for a level to load. We knew it finished loading because light on disk drive stopped flickering. I know it's silly but it's true.
Wrong - blowing into the game cart was meant to clean off big things like cat hair clumps, dead bugs and other large things that could cause your game not to load.

You can do anything with a Gameshark or Action Replay...

The "nude raider" code was started by Wizard Magazine.
The Madden curse is 100% real and has effected every single player that’s been on the cover beside Larry Fitzgerald.
Wasn't it "Electronic Gaming Monthly"?
I worked with a major computer company and there were certain countries we couldn't ship high-end video cards to.
Goldeneye HAS to be the most successful video game based on a movie EVER! If there is one that surpasses, then I'm not aware of it. I don't include shadow of Mordor because it's based on a universe, not a specific film.
Hey Lavender Town Syndrome only applied to the original Japanese version.
Supposedly it was green as well, and they changed the tones slightly for NA release
The madden curse is real. tom brady lost the super bowl after he was on the cover, Calvin Johnson quit football the year after he was on the cover.
I only watched this video to see where they ranked Aeris' revival rumors for FF7. They placed it in a respectable rank so I'm happy. :)
Can't revive but can glitch it to where she's still in your party. Just gotta hope the game doesn't crash. Fingers cross they make an Easter egg on remaster where you can save her somehow. Then again a lot of shit would change
