niduoe stre I never finished the game because I forgot about the forest temple small key right at the beginning of the dungeon and I don’t wanna go back
@@blazingbuizel7194 ok.. I may look like an idiot but why is that a big deal
It took me like 7 or 8 years to relize that the console of top of andy's TV was a SNES
@@smokeyokami2484 wait... what the f....
@@arjunomray3951 yea no I’m not joking what the sense where the toys are looking at commercials to find al and on top of the TV it’s just a Super Nintendo
When I was like 12 I was into Pokémon, so my parents bought me a strategy guide but not a game :| They thought it was a novel
at least you had a damn book to read
oof
Sorry but I laughed :D

I remember buying the Versus Book Guidebook of Gold & Silver for the Pokedex. The updated Kanto maps were cool since I played Yellow. Later when I rented (and later bought) Gold, I realized "Hey I can actually use this!"

Me watching my 7th Scott the Woz video of the day: Hey this guy might be onto something here
weak
Only 7th?
I’ve literally watched 10 in a day... I have a problem
@@Laromlab only 10?
weak.
Death can be cured
15:05 quite possibly my favorite thing scott has ever done on his channel
It’s so accurate it’s almost painful to watch lol he absolutely nailed it
super MERIYEO
@@teacherfromthejungles6671 lol ik
It gives me nightmares that I'm stuck in an endless loop
The skit made me realise I don't think I've ever heard Scott beg for subs or likes in his videos, and that's a rare thing these days.
“Video games are easily the quickest way to realize that I’m an idiot.”
Truer words have never been spoken.
Cam / The Unstable Nerd yep
This is especially true in fighting games
I tried playing Breath Of The Wild and trying to get used to the joycons is about the oldest I've ever felt. I'm 27!
My playthrough of Baba is You has made me realize my idiot status.
@@invisanon god yeah
Baba is You is one of the most interesting and unique games I've ever seen so I bought it even if I wasn't gonna be good at it, to show the guy who made it some support. But damn I didn't realise quite how bad I'd be at it. I think I've solved about 2 problems without looking up the solution for at least some of it. Like sometimes I'll just watch the first few moves to give me a clue and it'll always be an "ohhhh I didn't know you could do that". The game really blows and bends you mind with that. But it means it's unlike any other puzzle game, any experience you have with other puzzle games is useless in baba is you.
Really it's more like a game of interactive riddles. The riddles being the semantic kind. Like if two guys are in a boat but lost their matches to light their cigarettes, how do they light them? They throw a cigarette out of the boat, to make it a cigarette lighter. Like that is the kind of thinking you have to use, thinking that humans aren't very good at because it's not about reality, it has no use in reality so it's not something we evolved to have, it's just all these little riddles that make no sense except in the context of it being a riddle and words having more than one meaning. In the real world the boat doesn't turn into a cigarette lighter. The solutions in baba is you seem so simple in retrospect but half the time you didn't even realise that was something the game would let you even do, as it seems to block a lot of things that actually would work and solve the puzzle in favour of "no, there's only one solution, you can't come up with your own, try again"
Scott crosses another part off of his bucket list:
-defend E.T. for the Atari 2600-
*a r a r i 2 6 0 0*
I own that game but not a Atari, so it's just on my shelf right now
@@xanderfox6962 epic
How do you do that?
When I use it, it looks like this;
-Pikmin 2 is better than Pikmin 3-
Wait, never mind, it works now.
Now it's not working, what the fr*ck Susan!
I can’t believe “emulate a Let’s Player” isn’t one of the items from the bucket list.
The costume design for Game Fan Mike was spot on
The one time I got actual use out of a strategy booklet was in Mario 3D Land, where entering that castle in 2-3 puts you on a giant 8-Bit 1-Up Mushroom. It's a really neat secret.
Fuck wait, you watch Scott?
@@W1NotReal who doesn't?
DylanPlays / Renewings good point
I had that book too!
Hey wasn't it funny when you bullied a kid because he was cringy?
“ Video games are the quickest way for me to find out I'm an idiot "
Finally a quote I can relate to.

His Name is spelled Scatt! You stoopid!
@@stefanjud6345 actually, its Scate the Waze
“Alright just ran out of time, it’s fine I’ll do it on the next life” that’s such an accurate line. You expect the video to be quick high quality and professional but instead it feels like they themselves just figured out what to do and quickly hit the record button.
Yeah. Most of the time, people recording walkthroughs didn't even completed (or knew) the game first
@@midorifox Nowadays such videos get marked "Blind", allowing watchers to play and learn along with the LPer if they so chose.
I remember getting a strategy guide with skyrim when it came out. My brother father and I affectionately called it “the phone book”
Why?
@@alessiocinalli8315 it was almost as thick as a phone book
@@anarchist135 ok, don't know why I didn't get that lol
@@alessiocinalli8315 no worries
I've actually gotten smaller phone books.
Legend has it that Game Fan Mike ended up getting a game over because he didn't pause the game while he was talking about Raid Shadow Legends.
David Dalziel lol underrated
@@Alfiealfff nah fam, actually overrated since it's still advertised everywhere, (but still funny).

15:05 people that make 10 minute videos for a tutorial that takes 1 minute to explain and the rest of the 9 minutes is plugging themselves. Thank you for acknowledging that
So true, so true...
That threw me off so much. I was so engaged in Scott's in-depth discussion that when he imitated generic lazy youtubers, I realised how much I take for the granted the amount of research and originality Scott puts into his videos
@@matthewchampion8214 I know right?
You should check out Whotheboss, he does phone and tech reviews and he does the oppsite goes stright into it without an intro or anything
>Not just looking at what the runners do.
Absolute n00b.
I remember being in 4th grade, my cousin gave me the guide for pokemon emerald and I felt like a god, I studied that book like my life depended on it

That "Game Fan Mike" bit was so shockingly accurate that it should be illegal.
It was fucking hysterical
“Please follow me on Twitte-“

I remember going to Walmart to get a Brawl strategy guide and some dude twice my age (20ish) told me how to unlock everyone new
How nice of him, i suppose.

9:51 This is SO true! If I’m bored in class, I’ll draw the artwork for an album I like from memory. I don’t need to listen to the music, I just like thinking about it, and being reminded of it. It’s a very similar experience to what Scott’s doing!
Still waiting for Nintendo Switch: 3 Years In.
DatAlphaLion that will be in March
hasn't been three years tho so u shouldn't already be waiting
It’ll probably be when the Nintendo Switch is actually 3 years old.
Should be soon

Ah I love Super Maryo Brothers
When I was in 4th grade I remember getting a guide book to Pokémon diamond and pearl at a garage sale, and it was insane... for about a year until I got easy access to the internet.
Watching this made me realize I actually wouldn't mind having physical strategy guides again- not for walkthroughs, but for convenient at-a-glance information all laid out in one place. Stuff like Pokémon movesets, values and rarity in Animal Crossing, etc. Like if I could crack open a book to check on what every Fire Emblem: Three Houses character's favorite tea is instead of looking it up on a badly-formatted and/or ad-ridden website every time, that would be a thousand times better.
but what if the book's unconventionally formatted and ad-ridden?
Pokemon still gets guides and there's one for Animal Crossing coming in April.
Rising Sunfish I honestly feel entirely the same way, except with figuring out which lost item belongs to who.
I actually have a Stardew Valley book like this, and it's saved me so many trips to the wiki
@@kirathecat really? Do you know if it will be a guide specifically for new horizons? Or a guide for past animal crossing games
The best moments when using a walkthrough is when you've been wandering around for about 20 minutes and then when look it up you scream HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT
Or even better, when you get stuck on a hard boss so you just cheese the hell out of the fight. I look at those and wonder what the developer intended solution was sometimes
Usually, I just say: "oh... There it is"
Yea or when you look it up and are like “really, it was that easy???”
I just got 'Nam flashbacks from some point and click adventure games... You know the ones - you need to get a key from a drain but instead of just, you know, getting a screwdriver to pop the filter grate off, you have to ... *deep breath*
-Find a length of string, but you don't know where to find any and simply buying some thread from the fabric store is too pedestrian.
--You go back to your home and search everything looking for a string. You give up and wander around town for a bit.
---You end up at the barber shop and find a discarded hairbrush with lots of wadded up hair in it.
----You figure out, by accident, that you can take the hair off the brush and twist it into a long string.
-You go back to the grate and are told you need to attach a hook to the end of the string.
--You go to the fishing docks to look for a fish hook.
---You can't find one for sale anywhere so you wander the docks, lost in confusion.
----You find yourself in a part of the docks that you never knew existed where there's a dead fish on the ground.
-----You pick up the dead fish and realize there's a fish hook lodged in its mouth.
------You can't get it out, so you take the fish with you and ask everyone you can interact with about getting the hook out with no success.
-------You take the dead fish home and try to cut the hook out with a kitchen knife, no success.
--------You use everything you can think of to get the hook out but nothing works.
---------Out of sheer desperation you use the dead fish with the kitchen sink, your character puts the fish in the disposal and retrieved the dented fish hook.
-You try to use the dented fish hook with the string of hair, it doesn't work. You're told to straighten the dented fish hook first.
--You go back to the docks, one guy offers to straighten it but won't do it unless you bring him a jar of ground fish paste.
---You go back home, use an empty jar on the sink and get a jar of ground fish paste.
----You go back to the dock and the guy straightens the hook.
-----You combine the hook with the string of hair.
-You go back to the grate and try once again to retrieve the key but the hair isn't long enough.
--You look everywhere for something to make the string longer and find nothing.
---In frustration, you look up the solution online and find out you need to attach a kitchen magnet from your character's fridge to the end of the fish hook on a string to make the key come closer so you can grab it with your fingers.
----You wonder how you were supposed to think to use the magnet in the first place when you've had a screwdriver in your inventory since the first puzzle and why couldn't you just use the damn screwdriver to pop the grate off in the first place, stupid developers!!!!
Aidan Redding happens all the time in uncharted
I would never expect Scott to parody a RUclips video trope. That's Jacksfilms's thing.
Yes
My god, video game Mike is Scott's way to say what normal youtubers do in a skit, while not compromising the entertainment of the video

Huh?
Oh god
15:06 Not to mention the video will be 10+ minutes to something that can be solved in under a couple of minutes.
And one of the top comments is a timestamp to the heplful part of the video, with the rest of them being some variation of "Omg thank you this helped so much)
I actually searched up super Mario bro’s level 1 walkthrough in the search bar and thought I might get something
Yeah I freaking hate that, really just don't make your channel about things like this if you want to make money off it, it's just annoying.
I've watched so many tech tips where ultimately it's just "Yeah copy the code in the link then paste it in to this" and you're done but the video is 12 minutes long with horrific audio and bad or slow English.
The internet is annoying like that. Makes me think of recipes.
Okay so what do I need for this lasagne?
"Ah lasagne, I enjoy lasagne a lot, my grandmother would make it often post war times for a long lasting and filling meal. Did you know that lasagne sheets were invent-"
THE INGREDIENTS, DAMMIT
An-A-Quay HEY GUYS it’s me your best friend here to track you about this wigggity wacky game- every single tutorial channel. I always shut off the vid after that because eghhhh no
Gotta get more ad revenue somehow right?
That walkthrough video is too accurate. Just needed a timeline going across the bottom that ends at exactly 10:00 to really make it complete.
15:05 Lol, that's exactly why I prefer to READ the solution rather than look into videos. Most of the time it's much faster to just read. You can go inmediately to your specific problem.
At least until the only thing you could find to help you is those crappy GameFAQs walkthroughs
To me, I always look at video guides. Having a person explain the game with their voice alongside a physical demonstration of the game makes things a lot easier to understand rather than written guides.
@@PlayerZeroStart I know, younger generations tend to prefer those. But I think it's related to how difficult is for you to read and write. For people that have learned to write and read really fast, and searching information efficiently, there is no colour. The video is usually slow and tedious and it's hard to look for specific points, you need to watch it first to understand the structure. And even then, there's not that much information.
In guides or even forums it's much faster to look for specific points. There are bad guides, that's right, but even then it's your skill to make a good search what makes the cut in the end.
Heavily depends on how it's written. I've tried written texts and videos. If the text is short and onto the point, it's quicker than a video. But if it's a longer walkthrough, or worse, when the text just ignores to mention some things, a video is much quicker.
@@Liggliluff If it was handwritten I would agree with you. But with the search feature on computers, it takes less than 10 seconds to know if the guide has the content that you need. If the guide is divided among different pages (something that Nintendo likes to do for some reason), then you have two options. Look for another guide, and it's easier than ever thanks to sites like gamefaqs, or look thoroughly. When the guide is divided in pages, everything is usually better tagged.
Again, it comes to how good you are when it comes to look for information. Watching videos requires less thinking and less skills but it's far less efficient.
I bought a Banjo-Tooie Prima guide a while back. What really caught my eye was the custom-drawn maps for each level.
William DeLucio that sounds awesome
Wait didnt Prima die because of their Sonic 06 guides? o.O

I love that instead of just showing screenshots / pictures of the material he's referencing... He HAS them. I assume he purchased some of them to make the video, and he does that for all of his vids. Which is equally impressive and shows planning. He puts SO much effort into every video.
9:45 this part perfectly explains why I keep rewatching Scott the Woz videos lol
The unexplainable rage when Scott said "Mare-io". I know he's just making fun of others haha
All my life my dad refuses to pronounce it any other way. He does this with a lot of things, just to get a rise out of me. So I feel you.

@@saulgoodman8501 Have you tried BLJing?
Unfinished Comb Studios you know that was a joke right
There's honestly a part of me that enjoys imagining strategy guides as a form of preservation on how to play games, just like how the Library of Congress is a preservation of any and all information. So that way if the internet collapses and the world is thrown into chaos at least I'll have the Kingdom Hearts strategy guide to tell me how to find all those damn dalmatians.
I Am Legend fucked me up in the head when I was a kid. Now I have to plan all of my media collections around a scenario like that.
And I feel bad for using internet walkthroughs because I won't be able to Google the ingredients for the Supreme Sword of Light, will I?
i had suppressed the dalmatians from kh1 so deep into my mind and you brought that back up for me

Gameron
The problem is that most games are going all-digital nowadays, so if the internet collapses, they'll go with it..... at least unless you can keep your system, with the download of the game and the completed DLC, in perfect shape. Thank god for pirates and their capability to duplicate such things, but if the internet were gone, good luck being able to hunt them down for assistance should your all-digital game systems ever fail.
16:42 imagine if decades from now someone said that at his funeral, peak existence
7:19 Love how the beeps sync up with the censors
Throwback to fire emblem 5, the game that needed a whole ass movie in order to understand half the mechanics
It still baffles me that Three Houses never got an official strategy guide.

When he says things get wonky, it reminded me that prima game guides took the notes from one of the QA test team's i was a part of and then copy and pasted. So many of our typos made it to print.
Some love what they do, and some just do. I'm surprised they don't have better quality control though. Like.. Someone who puts everything through a word processor, if not an actual editor.
Huh, out of genuine curiosity what game were you a QA tester on?

That's the weirdest thing I've ever seen lmao
i noticed that too. like wtf?
and use auto translate to english on that, it's just great
Gotta have the kids that have coronavirus with SOME entertainment somehow.
15:06 - 15:41 I can't believe it, I've finally found rare footage of Scott asking his viewers to like the video and support him
Even if it's a joke, it still counts
What are you talking about? This ain't Scott, this is the world-famous RUclipsr Game Fan Mike
Oh, christopher chara icon. I see you everywhere. We watch all the same youtubers!
When it came to these sorta books, these were always reading material for me. I remember reading my Disney Universe Strategy Guide in the car. Part of me wishes there was a collection of them in files on the internet.
I'm so glad to see someone else acknowledge this game, it felt like I was the only person in the world that owned it as a kid lol
Can we please appreciate how the only time Scott has ever asked us to subscribe or like the video or whatever, was during a gag about other RUclipsrs
Today, Scott walks us through Video Game walkthroughs
Next time: Scott teaches me how to put a disc into my console without getting my hand stuck into it.
This is the fourth time it’s happened
Aidswayz Games A disc is a lot like a baby covered in soup. It’s small, it’s got a lot of stuff on it and they don’t like it when you scratch them.
Scott’s actually never put his disc into anything he’s a virgin pay attention
Aidswayz Games Could be worst. I get my hand stuck in the Nintendo Switch cartridge slot! Help!
Aidswayz Games your lucky its just your hand getting stuck.
@@thesingingpikachu5351 hmmmmmmm something's wrong here。。。
Hit the nail on the head with this one. I bought the Pokemon Sword and Shield strategy guide and pokedex book not because I needed that info (super easy to find online), but because I wanted them in my library. They remind me of the Pokemon strategy guides I did actually use extensively as a kid (and still have!).
Hello mikey
Hey michal
If you ever collab with scott, this will be the objectively superior timeline
Plz do a Collab with Scott if possible
It would be cool if you and Scott did a Pokemon Collab. :)
Scott, by "A" they mean with the NES configuration. A is jump for a NES controller, so you just need the jump button you set.
You ever realize Scott just had to make a giant bowl of chili put some on his face shout once into a camera and than proceed to talk about walk through
Yes. Everybody that's watched this very video realized this.
15:05 Might be one of my favorite Scott skits ever just because of how accurate it is
15:27
10:10 - You saying this reminded me... Prima's strategy guide for Wind Waker included a guide for Ocarina of Time in the back.
The whole thing. All of OoT, in about 13 pages. It's _extremely_ condensed, covering ONLY what you need to beat the game and any incidental collectibles that happen to be in dungeons, featuring no elaboration on anything and the maps are as barebones as possible, and yet... the incredibly basic point-to-point guide is exactly what helped me beat OoT for the first time.
It was actually sick, because the super simple descriptions that just point to certain areas and say "hit switch," "defeat miniboss and head downstairs," "hover boots to go through wall" were kind of a fun way to sort of meet the guide halfway on figuring a lot of things out, rather than making me feel like I was told EXACTLY how to do everything.
I think I remember that.
But I could have sworn the Zelda section was pretty fleshed out
@SHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course! Why didn't I think of that!

Remember when manuals in nes games told you some context on what you’re supposed to do in a game
I legitimately cry over video games soooo often as a huge game nerd and hearing once they're gone I'll never forget them just BROKE MY HEART. Also, as someone who didn't get into games until well into the 2010s (games just weren't really a thing in my house so I didn't start playing them until I was a teenager) I'm always amazed when I hear about stuff like THE NINTENDO HOTLINE.
It's cute though, apparently I've always been captivated by games, because I remember losing my mind when my friend whipped out a gameboy advance sp on the bus. Damn I watched him so intently haha
Guides then:
“How to complete level X of Y for the Z”

9:49 scott knows exactly who his fans are
Now a helpful tip for people writing online walkthroughs: Being concise is overrated. People love it when your all text walkthrough has the title of the game spelled out with _ / \ @ and | taking up more space than the scroll wheel allows you to get past in a single swipe. Also make sure to have a big fat table of contents despite you not including any links. Make sure to repeat terms ad nauseum that people may be typing after they hit ctrl+f. This will ensure people can read fhe walkthrough in its entirety up to the specific problem theyre looking for help on, and thus admire the hard work you put into your walkthrough
I mean you can just ctrl f to look for the specific section

Not really noticed until I watched this why I like the videos so much. It because you dont ask us to subscribe within the first 5 seconds or start it with " welcome back its ya boi (blablabla) here" like I know them personally. Keep up the good work dude. Your Like one of five channels that iv subscribed to. Stay original
When I was in elementary I used to love collecting game guides mainly from Nintendo games because of the artwork they had. Looking back at it now I probably looked like a dork reading the game guide to majoras mask in class during breaks but 10/10 would do again
“Hey y’all, Scott here! Welp, I’ve done it-“ I’ve gotten a haircut

@@Maniac4Bricks He's talking about reboots
15:05 Can't wait to see THIS out of context.
I love walkthroughs and strategy guides. Not so much because they give me the answers, but because they explain things as you go along about the world and the characters, and in the end of the day it's like reading a book about the videogame at the same time. It's made me feel a closer connection to a lot of games than I would have otherwise. And the best thing is that it will take you through every part of the game, so you always see 100% of everything and understand what it is.
Hey Scott, I happen to have the 2nd book in that "How to win at Nintendo" series if you want it for your collection. Just let me know! @8:55
Some say he’s still on the menu to this day
Ive been waiting for this day for seven days
15:07 i just fucking love it hahahah
Finally, Super Mario 64: Ocarina of time
Me: trying to finish homework I've procrastinated on all weekend late at night
Scott: HEY ALLLL, SCOTT HERE!
i'm not alone
Man, I wasn't doing it anyways
chances were, you weren't going to do them anyways
RelaxAlax: finish your homework
This happens to me on weekdays
15:06 Perfectly sums up how irritating it is to have a let’s-player to never shut up and get on with the walkthrough.
Jesus Christ, I used to have the Jeff Rovin book "How to Win at Super Mario Bros" !!
Wow seeing those covers took me back.
depends on the game. to this day I swear ive seen now official wallkthroughs of Crimson Tears on PS2 and NEEEDED to get the strategy guide to figure stuff out luckily it was cheap $7 on eBay
“Yeah I know that, but I’m a sucker for video game information”
And that’s why I watch Scott the Woz.
Me: finally being able to sleep
Scott: SUP FUCKERS
My hours and hours trying to scan a QR code in Watchdogs can finally come in handy doing the exact same thing but in a different video game, Hellblade
this channel is just one big nostalgia trip
16:42 Disappointed you aren't playing Breakout at your funeral. Whoever planned this funeral belongs in that coffin.
We only heard two notes, we can't rule it out.
Where could he get a coffin from?
Now for the final part of the trilogy. First was manuals, second was this, now the final part, video game magazines
Scott is basically the modern Homestar Runner.
I love it.
I love the artwork for things like Nintendo Power - hell, I love the ads they have because of the colorful things in it.
The walkthroughs I enjoy because they give me wallpapers.
Real ones remember when "let's plays" were called "walkthroughs" and the uploader almost always had serious experience and commentary was less reactionary and more about what to do and how to do it. Heck, remember ANNOTATION COMMENTARY? Because I sure do.
Ah the olden days of RUclips

Let's plays and walkthroughs are different things though. From my experience, let's plays are a RUclipsr experiencing a game (usually for the first time) with commentary, jokes, etc, while walkthroughs are meant to teach the audience how to beat the game.
Me: Has a Test tomorrow
Scott: 10pm upload
My Brain Cells Tomorrow: Guess I'll die
The teacher: Have you finished your test?
You: No, but did you know that the Nintendo hotline was shutted down on 2010?
Me: Teacher i don't feel like doing a test I'm to busy watching Scott's video
@@arielglr7177 "shutted down on 2010"
Yeah maybe get off youtube and start studying, you clearly need it.
I have HW due at 11:59 and I'm watching this at almost 11. At this point, we're all screwed.
@@arbiter- bro chill
When you opened the video game guide, I could smell that "new laminated video game book you got from the scholastic book fair" smell distinctly
I really appreciate the sentiment at the end there. So much of this ephemera is just so charming in a way that I'll miss
I think everybody looked at a walkthrough for the memory locations in BOTW
Jay Turner this. I cannot deny this one here.
don't forget the koroks. I somehow got 770 before I couldn't take it anymore (thank god for the korok mask I wouldn't have found any without it)
I never play botw without a walkthrough
@@nopir3898 nobody gives a sh*t about you not giving a sh*t
Only one of them for me but yes. My proudest moment was seeing the picture with a tree and a sapling overlooking the castle so I looked at the map and found a spot with a large tree and a small tree. When I went there I found it.
The rest of them I used Pikango as my guide until I forgot I had asked Pikango about it earlier and couldn't get the information from him anymore, where I gave in to find the last memory.
Me sleeping at 10:05pm
Scott: HEY ALL, SCOTT HERE!
Or me just watching a video and then Scott uploads
yeah
15:25 first time he ever asked for a like lol
He asked for someone to like him
I remember reading walkthroughs (in gaming magazines) for games I didn't even own. They were just well made and fun to read.
When I heard the smw athletic theme not transition into witch doctor, my brain had a spasm
Welcome to SiIvaGunner. He only uploads High Quality Rips
Vela Nova thank you for introducing me to that song. Thank you.
Also, remember: Strategy Guides have to be made way in advance for them to make it to store shelves by the game’s release date.
In my Super Mario Galaxy 2 guide, one of the green stars in Clockwork Ruins Galaxy is in a completely different location, and there’s even a screenshot of the game with the star in its old position!
There was also that Super Paper Mario guide with a totally unused partner in it.
Seeing both the Mario Mania and NES Atlas in this video was weird to me after growing up with and seeing them all the time, but it was like that cool weird where you see something you have that someone else has and you go “Oh shit, hey!”
I remember that shiity Final Fantasy IX guide! I was so angry cause the guide was still there price of a full strategy guide but literally every tip box ended with something like "go to playonline for the full scoop!" and I didn't have the fucking Internet at my house. GameFaqs was already in full swing too so I was pissed I wasted my allowance when I basically could have printed an FAQ at the library like I normally did but I wanted the FF IX guide as a treat for myself. Lol still annoyed whenever I remember this.
The funny thing is I think they did this as like a bonus? They thought we'd be HAPPY with this. They knew they were in a losing battle against online guides, so why not rip out half the content from the book, like we were going to yell HOT SHIT, I GET TO GO ONLINE TOO?! BEST BOOK EVER!
Remember that when the game came out the Internet was still in its infancy
“What would Video Frank say?”
*top 10 questions science still can’t answer*
Is "Why is Gamora?" on that list?
GirlWithoutAFairy yes
Is "when is the release date of Half-Life 3" on that list?
