I managed to finish the entire game and kill the last boss. And after such great efforts, I was sent back to stage 1 in order to finish the game again. That's how it works, just to take pressure out of you, guys.
Because it's a Ghosts N' Goblin's tradition to make you have to play the game twice to beat it, ever since the first 1. At least you could save on the PSP Ultimate Ghost's and Goblins. I found that harder than this game! Never beat this 1 but I got close. Last boss on stage 7 on the second run on professional mode, from scratch in one day. Couldn't get to Sardius and gave up there
Super Ghouls and Ghosts: Proving once and for all that bad jumping controls can be a successful gameplay element. Broken? No. Stupid? A little. Challenging and fun? Damn straight.
Every gamer ever has at least one game in their childhood that they bought and regretted. I remember spending days at age 6 playing this level because this game was the only birthday present i got. It even got to the point where the opening "cinematic" scared my ass off. Maybe not because of the gargoyle dude, but certainly because of the wonky jumps to come. This song will haunt my nightmares forever.
The SNES version was cake compared to the NES, maybe I was just a little kid for the NES version, but that is the one that haunts my frustration nightmares...
@TheThreeRandomDudes UltraJMan played I Wanna Be The Guy. He was stuck in the G&G section! He lost his mind! And this song was playing, and it drove him insane!
@NitromathThePizzaGuy APPLES! HAWKS! ZOMBIES! MOVING SPIKES! F*CKBALLS! *PRESS R TO TRY AGAIN* FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU- wait what? mecha birdo? WHY IS MECHO BIRDO MUSIC EPIC??????
By far one of the BEST soundtracks for the SNES. Just listen to ALL of them (personally my fav is the Ice Forest) This is up there with the MMX series, Super Metroid, Zelda, Battletoads, etc.
Good fucking luck getting through it the first time, but when you think you beat it, the bitch tells you to go through it all again with some stupid wrist band.
But I would totally put the music somewhere on a top 50 list of best SNES game music.
Done the whole sit down and double playthrough within the last week to relive some good memories.
I remember why after completeing it twice I left it for so long, the word GRIEF springs to mind. Dont get me wrong, I fucking love this game but man is it a pain in the rusty sheriffs badge.
@DianaMod27 He didn't say he did it in one try, he said in one sitting, as in he played it non stop until he completed it, no matter how many times he died
@n343184 i was picking on the fact that he said the second time he heard this song was on his second playthrough, which would imply that he only heard it once before finishing the first playthrough
@tconman31 dude no offense but this game was badass bro u people liked it becuz it was chalenging not all games are for people who like easy games dude
@Monodi91 hahaha thats funny I am right there with ya man. I set out to get some footage of all stages for my video watch?v=Fjqf_aSXn7E but it was stage seven that did me in so I kinda changed my plans on showing so much in game footage.
awesome unfortunatley i did not grow up in this time of badassery but my dad still has his working nintendo and the ghost and goblins game man took me like a million tries to beat it i got maximo ghosts to glory hahah
@metalpsips this one is pretty tedious. Ghouls n ghost was more eye candy then anything. This game mimicked the first game more in difficulty and who knows maybe even harder
God, I love this game. One of the few that makes you so mad that you HAVE to beat it. I used this music one year for Halloween when we dressed up our house. I had a few people ask me, "Wait a minute. Where do I know this from?" LOL
@ImperviousMason Heh, sorry to say this, but I got past the first level of this game when I was like 6. Never did complete the game though. I hate the whole go back to the beginning thing at the next to last level.
i been trying to learn the bassline by ear, its so friggin fun to play along to but i have a hard time finding the right notes, its kind of a tricky line. wish someone would cover it on bass and post a vid.
