Man I spent so long messing around with those pokemon rumors... I read that I had to get past the S.S. Anne without it leaving and then go to the casino and Giovanni (the gym leader) had left his keys there and I had to get them and go to the truck and use the keys to drive the truck out of the way and there would be some stairs and I would eventually fine a mew... I also heard if you had a pokemon that knew strength, you could use it on the truck and it would move... Man I never got the try out the keys thing though... lol I wonder why nintendo put a truck there, I mean it must've been there for a reason...

Yeah... same in FF6... how to revive General Leo. Fight thousands of battle in a tiny lil spot on the worldmap and you'll get a fancy magic potion that gives back Leo.
i wonder if every heroic death in rpgs are sorrounded by rumors.
Hey... maybe in .hack//INFECTION there's a totaly alternate storyline if you manage to stop Orca from falling into a coma XD

Re: Playero_LF (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |

Ok, the FF3 (U.S. 6) THAT was a rumor that I hoped for to be TRUE. I admit that I DID try to look for a rumoured potion to bring him "back from the dead" but, when I found out that it was a hoaX I cursed the person that made it up AND their mother!

You know what's funny? When you can play as a major character who dies.
Phantasy Star 2. When Nei dies in the fight with Neifirst, you can bring her back to life for that battle with a Moondew. But after the battle, she's gone for good.

With a gameshark. XD
he's really good but you can't equip him with weapons/armor/relics/espers. kefka is also obtainable, but he often freezes the game.

I usually don't care much for Ian's articles but this one was kinda cool and brought back memorys of the games I used to play. I still remember the Street Fighter although I was never familiar with that rumor. We had it at our pizza king.

Sorry to say it but Chrono Cross sucked compared to Chrono Trigger. there may be some small similarities between the games but they they did not feel connected to me either then i played them.

How about the original Super Mario Bros. where you could supposedly jump over the flag?
|
Re: crapster... (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |
|
|
It is possible to jump over the flag, though you will need a famicom to do it, besides, you'll only end up with a never ending corridor (well, until you run out of time that is)
|
Re: blazeking (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |
|
|
speaking of SMB's. remember when you had to use the trampoline thingy to jump accross the gap and you almost failed everytime, trying to move the controller thinking that would help? can you say the innovation of sixaxis?
|
Re: mookie stick (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |
|
|
I remember doing this in one of the later levels, and running to the right in hopes that I'd found something special and great, and ending up at a warp pipe back to world 1-1. I've also never been able to do it again.

Re: ryusazbooyaa (Unregistered) - 2007-03-14 |

reply to blazeking, sixaxis is PS3, and it is only tilt sensitive...Mario is Nintendo, Wiimote can sense the jolts...get your system and controllers right
|
Re: Ryusucksbootyass (Unregistered) - 2007-03-26 |
|
|
Blazeking was simply stating how some people used to wave the pad/joystick around as if it would help, where as now it actually will do ;)
Nothing to do with which controllers go with which systems...Leave your fanboy arguments at home.

It is possable to jump over the flag in mario bros for NES, I myself have never been able to, but I did wach my older sister get lil 8bit mario over the flag..... and you just keep walking endlessly until time runs out.
PS: It was on good ol' NES not Famicon

Wander???? Its Wanda!!!
How can you even attempt to write an article such as this, dealing with a topic thats been done to death by numerous sites (and researched correctly I might add).
It shows a clear lack of imagination and talent that the best you could do was a poor cut and paste from wiki and any gamer worth there salt would have spotted the Wander typo!
Not only is it a slow news day but your writers need a lesson in integrity!
Hackish and slung together at best, I guess thats all you need when your readerbase is 99% under the age of 15 though..

Usually the American counterpart of a japanese game has translated names.

Anyone got the aeiths ghost showing up glitch on tape?
|
Re: Kishin (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |
|

its even in the FFVII strategy guide.. you just go there at the end of the game way after aeris is dead somwhere in disc 3. She will appear birefly picking up flowers as some form of ghost than dissapeares forever... cant be repeated and its not a glitch.

I remember when Nintendo Power made a funny and in an April issue, released a few screenshots in which Link could purchase the Entire Triforce (and as the article stated only after unlocking certain things within the game) in Kokori Village back in the Ocarina of Time. I must've looked HIGH AND LOW for YEARS for that thing before realizing it was a joke.
Second one I can recall is supposedly being able to unlock Luigi as a playable character in Mario 64. You had to of course do really hard to impossible things within the game to unlock this as well.
I look back now and regret ever listening to those two rumors. Who knows, maybe all the electricity I used to play those games longer and for hours on end, could have powered that small angry village Glod in Romania for a week.

Heh I never heard that Zelda 64 myth, but I did hear the one aout there being a myth that like the original Zelda for NES there is supposedly a second quest in ocarina of time where you play as shiek, plus I have hear many many variations on this myth... and I acctually roamed every freaking inch of that game for the second quest.
And I also have heard the myth about Luigi, I also heard that he is in the game when you rocket to the top to see yoshi, apparently there is a way to see Luigi in the sun and he speeks in japanese though. probably a HUGE myth.
but the biggest myth I think I ever heard was that there is a code and when entered the whole world of Zelda 64 is replaced with the mushroom kingdome, so link is now mario and Ganon is now Bowser and so on.

The Aeris ghost thingy is very real. When on disc 2 or 3, go to midgar and talk to the guy standing outside the doors, head to bone village and dig up the key and head back to the church.
It's nothing really, but a fun detail.
I could try to get it on tape/some kind of media, but i don't have the time..

Can't belive it didn't mention the 'Triforce Rumor' O_o
I remember the Triforce rumor for Ocarina of Time...only rumor that had me going to find the sacred Triforce. Stupid 'time' rocks...I can't belive I actually try hitting all of them in order while wearing the 'eye of truth' (or whatever it was call) -_-
|
Re: Danman (Unregistered) - 2007-03-18 |
|
|
the triforce rumor i heard was in death mountain, and you had to play a certain song then everything will collapse and you fall into a small room with a goron pissing into a river, which was yellow. When you talked to him he would give you the triforce.
PRETTY CRAZY!!
|
Re: undeadfred (Unregistered) - 2007-03-23 |
|
|
Apparently there was yet another way of getting the triforce, you just had to beat the one marathon man in gerudu valley as adult link, which would make the icon in the middle of all the medallions light up to a yellow hue. After about ten tries, i decided it was a hoax up until my buddy claimed that you can beat him by tie-ing the runner's time. My friend was going to prove it to me with his cart but couldn't find it. Still haven't retried it due to the whole bogus-ness of the idea. But who knows, could be true.

Ahh..the Aeris Myth...I spent many an hour trying to get her lifeless body full of hp once more....
Here's another myth I heard as a Child:
Playing as Link/Samus in Super Mario RPG!
Some loser back in the day told me you could play as these characters if you Completed some impossible feats...

In the uk in 1992 there was a magazine that came out called mean machines and they said there was a cheat for mortal kombat on the snes to get the blood and death moves. me and my cousin tryed it for hours and hours, and the code just didnt seen to work. It involved you sticking a penny on the cartridge to weigh it down whie you pressed a combination of buttons on the joypad, well after a long night with no success we gave up then i looked at the front of the mag and it was dated 1st April, oh i was such a fool, ive still got the mag to this day and it always brings a smile to my face and a slight sneer.

Re: blazeking (Unregistered) - 2007-03-13 |

thhe only code you ever needed was ABACABB. After all these years I still know that code.

Re: siccoyote (Unregistered) - 2007-03-23 |

|
That was NMS actually, I have that issue, and we did it, there were a few clues. 1:sticking a coing to your cart is stupid, 2:the badly edited screenshots, 3:one of the directions is diagonally up but doesn't say which direction.

What about the additional fatalities rumored in MK2?
I was told that in the level of the forest you could give an uppercut to a dying character and make him/her fall in the mouth of one of the trees in that place, and in the acid pool that you could hang your enemy on one of those chains. I did try it a couple of times but I didn't push it for a long time, it is a good thing that all those rumors were actually added in MK:Shaolin Monks.

Re: DaMist (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |

|
i can't remember exact details but i used to perform these glitches as a kid when playing mk2, it was one of my past times.
you used cage and shang tsung , i cant remember exact details but you needed to get their fireballs frozen o the screen and then it would allow you to perform these glitches. danm i wish i could remember how it was. it was fun.

Re: JustJoe (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |

Thankyou for bringing those up, it kinda burned me that the numerous MK rumors were ignored in this article, and good point about the Shoalin monks reference...I really felt that game was done half as a game, and half as a tribute to fans of the series.

the big myth when i was in elementary school (when only super mario 3 was out) , was people would go around saying they had played a beta copy of super mario brothers 8 or 10 or whatever... and the goal of the game was to deliver the princess a pizza
|
by Midnight Fenrir (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |
|
|
Yeah, I can't help but wonder why the Triforce from Ocarina of Time didn't make this list... Probably because, there were at least 30 different rumors of ways to do it... making it impossible to pin down any particular one.
Oh, and, there's the 17th Colossus from Shadow of the Colossus... I remember when that first showed up, and how I wished it to be true... but, alas, twas not to be.

Getting MegaMan in Super Smash Bros 64, finding Mew in a truck next to the SS. Anne in Pokemon Red/Blue, wearing the giants mask and fierce deity mask at the same time in Zelda: Majoras Mask, playing as Zack in FF7, hell even the one about Sonic and Tails in SSB Melee!

I've never heard any of the rumors mentioned in TFA. Why did you fail to mention the real rumors, like: Triforce in OOT, Mew under the truck, Luigi in Mario 64, etc. ?

Re: kefka12 (Unregistered) - 2007-03-12 |

if you were a real gamer, youd know these rumors or at least recognize the game titles or the reasons behind the rumors. stupid noob.

Re: ryusazbooyaa (Unregistered) - 2007-03-14 |

try reading all the other comments for once, some rumors have so many variations that they couldn't obviously list all of them, besides they can always have a second article, that's why you jump it up so that they type more articles like it. idiot

I didn't know this was a rumor, since I knew it as a fact.
The monstertruck (assuming that's what you mean) can be found hidden behind a bus/trailer/whatever at a trailer-park in the lower middle area of the map. Near the "Suicidal Photographer"-waypoint on this map:
http://gta.com.ua/img/articles/sa_maps/Map_Secrets_L.gif
Just look for a area with lots of trees and bushes near the bridge, then there's a driveway of sand to a trailer. jump up on the trailer and look around and you'll see it (usually, sometimes I've seen it fail to spawn, but that was after a lot of explotions and spawning seems to act a litle wierd after that)
