Chew on that, american white devils

I could never get into Kid Icarus.  I'd start scaling the first level, die partway up, try again a few times, then get bored and give up.  It's sad; I really would like to see what the game's actually like. ):

It's awesome. It's worth learning not to suck at video games to listen to the awesome music in each set of levels.

I don't suck at all video games. D:

If you suck at Kid Icarus you suck at all video games.

I hate all of you.

That's okay, the feeling's mutual.

I'm sure glad someone does!  Because, you know, that game was awful.  Kind of like a seizured, retarded step up from Ice Climber, which wasn't any good either.

Although this game is fun:

I agree, red X > all.

I tried playing the game again.  Death kept screaming at me and swarming me with micro-deaths.  I got past the first few Deaths, but one of the later ones kept killing me.  Then I got tired of starting over from the very bottom of the level over and over again and cried.

What do the meat hammers that the harp turns enemies into do?

[couchmonkey]

You pick them up.  I don't know what they do after that, but I think they're good.

I always found these games hard to figure out and kind of repetitive.  I could beat them, I just don't feel the need.  Having the manuals would probably make them more awesome.

Watch the pattern the reaper takes and the timing of its random turnarounds. Sneak past it like Solid Snake, or shoot it from behind without getting in its line of sight. If I remember, you only get one arrow in the air at once, so if you're close to the minion chain he summons, you can pop all four of them really fast.

The hammers are used in the dungeon maze levels (every fourth level) for freeing the statue guys that help you with each boss.

I always felt bad for freeing those guys – they were like nameless Star Trek ensigns:

DESTINED FOR DEATH.

The XBox 360 controller's d-pad is so bad, it might as well not have one.
