"The lahhmp" - Ahh! Real Monsters ref? If so, then you my good man continue to be the voice of my generation. I actually found the Houlihan room quite by accident when I first played this game, and remember getting spooked because I thought my cartridge was haunted.

@WereDeus YES! Good call!

I have CDO. It's like OCD but the letters are in alphabetical order, the way they belong.

I never knew you could use the boots to break the walls. I want to nostalgia all over this game now.

Rats only do 1/4 heart damage.

Holy crap. Nice Easter Egg.

@shinrenx I like it. So how do you feel about UTC = "Coordinated Universal Time"? Hehehe.

I think Chris Houlihan was just a little cheated. He won a contest that promised the winner would get a cameo. But it was relegated to a room that no one was ever supposed to see unless something went wrong with the game. I'm not sure that deserves to be called a cameo.

8:10 Did Final Fantasy Tactics traumatize you that much, HCBailly ? ;)

Basically, Chris won the contest, America thought it wasn't supposed to be in, they made it like that.

The Houlihan Room, is the room where you are sent when the game hasn't had the time to load the next room in memory. It's sort of an emergency 'panic' room for the game to send you so it doesn't crash. Running all the way there causes the a bug in the room transitions, requiring it to send you there. It is named after an old Nintendo Power contest winner, and not supposed to be found unless you bug the game.

I actually found the Chris Houlihan room through another entrance when I was younger. I believe it was a hole that you fall down near the Witch's hut....

HCBailly has CDO, its like OCD but in the correct order
