Ah, very cool. Jak 3 is a damn good game, but short.

I need to hook up my PS 2, and play that series again...

Thats the one I've described like a dozen times allready Carmichael.

You can predict exactly where he's gonna land.

He goes down those webs and TURNS AT EVERY SINGLE OPPORTUNITY. It doesn't take particularly quick eyes to trace the path he takes in advance. Theres no sensical explanation as to why you would be caught in a corner, he's stuck on those string lines. He can't chase you if he misses you with his initial attack.

I imagine he's not too hard, but he always gave me a hard time.

*Shrug*

In other news, I can see by Terra Drake's signature she got to one of my favorite parts in Jak II.

Here, I'll raise the anti. Using an extremely exploitable bug that can be initiated through a buggy portion of Flame Mamoth's stage, its possible to fight the bio spider without having the dash boots equiped(also doable is to enter a code where you don't have the leg upgrade). Really, fighting the bosses in X1 without dash boots is about the only way to make the difficulty tolerable.

JP, Carmichael said the boss gave him a hard time. No need to jump all over him for it.

In other news, I'm hunting Nightmare in Fusion. Gee, gravity manipulation? I wonder whatever could he be giving me when I destroy him...

Yes, it's usually not hard to figure out what your next prize is in the later Metroid games. Metroid Prime series is not much different.

That's... great. It really is. However, no matter how easy he was for you, he still gave me difficulty. Nothing is going to change that. I'm not saying the dude was impossible, I'm saying he was hard for me. I'm glad you could kick his ass, though.

Baroned, but yeah.

... Whether or not I'm better than you at the game is irrelevant to the difficulty of the boss in comparison to other bosses. The only reason I mention the no-boots thing is because, as I recall, its STILL relatively easy to beat him, even without the boots.

Honestly, I think the only easier X1 boss is Chill Penguin. And Chill Penguin is probably the easiest Megaman related boss ever.

Bolded and italicized the key points. For you, the guy was super easy. For me, he wasn't. Just like how some people have no problem with... say, the airplane parts of GTA Vice City, and other people can't do them. You play differently than I do, so some bosses will be easier for you than they are for me, and possibly vice versa. Most of the bosses in that game were fairly easy, but the spider gave me trouble. That's all I'm saying.

Personally, I see it as my experience with the boss being more recent. And really, the difficulty of a boss is easily turned into numbers like speed, size, and power of their attacks. When I say I think its so, its a really educated guess.

...Am I supposed to make a tier chart of the Megaman bosses? Its easier for me to just say he probably is(that and I don't have to consider more obscure villains who might usurp his easiness, Top Man from MM3 maybe?).

Whatever, I stand by my criticism.

I just heard that in the new version of FF4 they're releasing you can actually pick your team for the final dungeon.

JP, what part of this is so difficult for you to grasp? Different people have differing amounts of difficulty with different things. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

Hey, we agree on something, here!

In all seriousness though, I am not saying you are wrong with his difficulty 'rating'. You appear to think I am, but that is not the case. I am saying I had a hard time with him. Me. Not everyone else, not you, not Bill and Ted, just me. That's it!

Yeah? I heard something like that as well, but I wasn't sure if it was confirmed or not. that'll be pretty cool, though.

Yup. NP said that to compensate for level differences, they've added a dungeon near the end thats basically a "training" dungeon.

Just whatever. I'm a villain and I'm obviously persecuting Carmichael here as a newb. Just know that I think you guys have a freaking double standard going on here...

JP, knock it off. Carmichael is saying that how difficult part of a game is is a matter of opinion.

That is all. You're not a villain.
