Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I was bored during Spring break and therefor started looking for free indie games to take up my time.

I came across another game called "An Untitled Story." I at one point got stuck and looked up a guide. I instead found a review that said the following:

Third, [An Untitled Story] is the best freeware platform game I have ever played (If you just had the urge to babble furiously about bunny-people and amnesiac androids, you can relax. I like Cave Story, too.)

When I eventually got tired of AUS, I remembered this quote, downloaded CS and was promptly blown away.

Was that game a spin off of Cave Story, or a completely different game?

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I was reading a REALLY old game informer issue while I was sick, and saw Cave Story got an 8.5. I looked it up, saw the PC version was free, and decided to give it a shot.

And now I love it.

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I got hooked on Cave Story this past Christmas. I got a 200 Nintendo Point card and was looking for something to download when I saw Cave Story. I remembered reading about how good a game it was in Nintendo Power earlier, so I decided to download it. I was hooked before the Egg Corridor.

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I saw it on a list of free Mac games. I downloaded it and was completely hooked immediately by the gameplay and the oddball storyline. I had to beat it, and I didn't play any other games at all until I did.

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I found out about Cave Story in the year 2009 or so. I was in my local library reading and two guys were on laptops. One talked to the other about this Metroid-Castlevania style game called Cave Story. I looked the game up on Google and played it. I started to be a fan of the game starting from the title screen music. I have beaten it, got all three endings and have downloaded both remix projects of the game's music. I am also very excited for the 3DS remake, Cave Story 3D will make me buy a 3DS :).

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

honestly I don't remember :o

I saw it somewhere, then decided to check it out by googling it. the tribute site showed up on the first link, and I decided to play it. It was a great game, and it really sunk into me how amazing it was about a week after thinking about it. I think I checked out the forums at some point, but decided against joining because of the crazy layout of it (I was 13 or something so that was probably for the best). About a year or two later I replayed it, and joined the forums, and I'm still here.

Re: How were you introduced to CS?

I think it was nintendo power. Being I sometimes base games on what the main character looks like ( I know it's stupid) I originally saw quote as some sort of odd shape and I wa like, stuuuupid! Rmthen I took another look at it and I was all. Shamwow!!!!! Ya it's stupid I know. And I found out about it this year.

Oh yeah, Was it the 25 years on the NES issue? That's the only issue I own of Nintendo Power, and I was pleasently supprised when I saw that Cave Story was being released on DSi.

One thing in the article confused me, however. There was a gameplay screenshot of the MiMiga graveyard with quite good graphics. If you have ever played Cave Story DSi, you would know it has the original Cave Story PC graphics. The screenshot couldn't have been from the Wii version either, because even with the new graphics it didn't look that good.

Oh, and I'd just like to point out that you should check the spelling for your Location.:awesomeface:

It's a picture from the 3DS version. Nicalis released it a long time ago and nobody knew what the heck it was for.

Yes, I was actually going to edit my post and say that I was thinking that's what it was for. Also, it really looks like you can fire angled shots. But I'm getting a little off topic here.

INORITE. How dare he bring me here!

Nah, but seriously, I kinda like it here a little bit. And I hate Fire's guts which seems to be a commonly held notion by alot of people here, so there's that.
