There was one mission in GTA 3 where you had to honk your horn outside of someone’s apartment and I just had absolutely no idea that there were L3 or R3 buttons on a PS2 controller. Hardstuck for days.
Remember you had to ask a person when you were stuck in a game? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
When I was a teen, I had a friend call me on the phone one Friday evening to help him beat a Donkey Kong Country level because he knew I had the Nintendo Player’s Guide.
We spent 30 minutes troubleshooting that shit. One of my best experiences as a child.
There was a time where the only way to beat the Water Temple was to ask that one kid in school to come over to your house to do it for you.
Lol I remember that frustration too, thanks for the flashback. You only had to click it for like a millisecond too it was the shortest honk and the game would progress hah.
That’s so funny to me, because I can’t imagine playing a GTA game without honking the horn to the beat of the music playing on the radio every time I’m in a car. It’s part of the GTA experience for me. (Imagine my joy when I heard that “beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep” song for the first time in GTA V!)
Hell, that reminds me of when I first got a GameCube and was disappointed that the sticks didn’t click in like they did on the PS1…
I checked my game manual and saw that the stick was the 3 button. But wiggling it did nothing. I definitely cried a little over that mission.
Ah yes, Sly 2 demo on Ratchet and Clank 3.
Ape Escape on the PS1 taught me the L3 and R3.
There was a game gear game that had a cheat code which required you pressing 2 buttons simultaneously. 4th grade me didn’t know what it meant so I just pressed both buttons is such rapid succession until I inadvertently pressed them at the same time and unlocked the cheat
“Use the middle stick to dodge the Joker’s bullet”
You only get L3 when you turn 18
i was 28 when i still didnt know it

You spend 100x the effort complaining about others’ posts instead of making your own.
They post more on Lemmy than you do
And? I don’t spend my day berating others for sharing interesting things like they do.
That part is fair criticism, I just don’t think it makes a lot of sense for you to criticize them about the amount of content they post.
Why not? They have no right to complain about the contributions of others when they contribute nothing themselves.
They do contribute, though.
Why do you care if I point it out if automated reddit reposters are good for lemmy?
Because it discourages people from participating here if they are just going to be berated by neckbeards.
My neck is smooth like my balls.
And they’re both almost as smooth as your brain.
I’ll challenge you to an IQ test any day.
Thank you for your service, the reposts around here are getting ridiculous.
It’s a small amount of accounts with semi-automated reposting.
Wth bro. Post original authentic content . All social sites are nothing but reposts
What a lame attempt at trolling no wonder why you copy reddit/facebook/twitter and post them here.
