A tiny little baby girl.

thats actually why I was playing and posting for the techmo Super Bowl comp from the hospital.
 



That's awesome man! What's her name? You sneak a video game reference in the name? Her middle name isn't Zelda,is it? Lol.

It is Sophia.  I tried for Zelda or yoshi as the middle name but it was shot down before it even finished coming out of my mouth.




Yoshi...lol....that would have been amazing if you'd have been able to pull that off. ]]> NintendoAge 2014 Weekly Contest Presents: Adventures of Bayou Billy http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=121987 2014-03-10T14:47:17 -05.00 bimmy_lee 114 Originally posted by: gutsman004

I might end up trying to do a 3 loop complete run in the near future, don't have enough time to do it for this contest though. I'd like to say I beat it on the hardest difficulty. It definitely becomes a test of your patience trying to beat multiple loops since each one is about 40 minutes long.

Yeah, definitely a nice challenge to do, and giving rdrunner description of stage 7 bosses on 3rd loop, there might be a make it or break it part very near the end of the game. Imagine playing 110 minutes and fail because of that part, it then takes balls to grab that controller back and redo it in the hope to beat that part.
  Yeah.  I went through all of that with Gradius III arcade.  It takes like 25-30 minutes to get to the cube stage, and that's with playing perfectly.  It's extremely easy to lose all your lives on that level and have nothing to show.

Bayou Billy is an absolute joke compared to that game.  It took me 2 years of playing, and a solid 4 months of playing seriously almost every single day in order to beat it.  Bayou Billy loop 3 is like a sesame street game compared to Gradius III arcade.

I don't think it's as terrible as people made it out to be, but it does have some serious flaws. I would give it a 6.5/10 if I was going to tag an arbitrary score on it. The developers had a lot of great ideas though.



Yeah,I feel like this game could've been on a lot of people's top 20 or even top 10 lists had they made a few adjustments to the game before they released it.

I'm in total agreement. My favorite parts are the shooting. I wish I could have used the zapper this last week. ]]> NintendoAge 2014 Weekly Contest Presents: Adventures of Bayou Billy http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=121987 2014-03-09T21:14:55 -05.00 bimmy_lee 114 6400
