I always use that Gold PP7 when I'm using the cheats back then, that gun wasn't just broken, it was ludacris overpower. The Silver PP7 on the other hand, the bullets just go straight through solid objects.

"Super Ghouls'n Ghosts" for the SNES.

A lot harder than "Ghosts'n Goblins" for the NES in my opinion, and that definitely says something.

Probably 9-10 hours when I spent several all-nighters with "Star Ocean: The Second Story" for the PlayStation about 10 years ago as a 22-year-old.
I would usually start playing at around 7 PM or something like that, then I kept playing until I had beaten the whole game, which I would do at around 5 AM.

The crazy thing is that I actually did this maybe 3-4 times a week for a couple months, and I also got 8 characters every playthrough
I was so familiar with the game that I could breeze through it like that every time without even thinking.
My motivation was that I tried to unlock all the voice clips, and I also tried to watch all the ending scenes.

And of course, it definitely helped a lot that I insisted on getting the Eternal Sphere, the Battle Suit and the Bunny Shoes for Claude as soon as possible every time.
He becomes a one-man army with that equipment.

People who talk about this game always mention the Golden Gun when they want to bring up a "cheap über-powerful weapon", but that weapon is actually kind of lame when you compare it to the Gold PP7 - that weapon is outright broken!
There are several reasons for why the Gold PP7 is vastly superior, and I can even prove it with the following arguments:

*Gold PP7 is just as powerful as the Golden Gun
*on top of that, it fires much, much quicker
*it also has a magazine capacity of 7/800, which is much better than the Golden Gun's 1/100
*and also, it uses regular PP7 bullets, which means that you can actually restock your ammo

As you can see, the Gold PP7 is basically a fast Golden Gun with a larger magazine.
So if you want to talk about a really ridiculous weapon in this game, then you should be talking about the Gold PP7.
That weapon is so fantastic that it can easily compete even with the RC-P90, and it clearly outclasses the Golden Gun completely.

I have always been a big fan of the kind of music that was played in snowboarding classics such as "1080 Snowboarding" for the N64 and "SSX3" for the PlayStation 2, and to be entirely honest, I really have problems finding similar relatively modern games with the same kind of soundtrack, and I was wondering if you could help me find some games like that.

Here are a few tracks from the games that I mentioned, just to give you an idea of what kind of music that I am looking for:

Golden Forest - 1080° Snowboarding

Grasp Power! - 1080° Snowboarding

Autopilot Off - Clockworks (SSX 3 Version)

Yellowcard-Way Away

I guess that one way you could think of it is that snowboarding games with this kind of music had that awesome "rebel feel" to them - they really connected extremely well with me and several of my classmates when we were in our late teens, and today as a 32-year-old I still greatly appreciate that kind of attitude in these types of games.

I feel like modern snowboarding games have soundtracks that are way too relaxing - if they have a soundtrack at all, it seems like some of them are even completely silent with just environmental sounds or something - and slow piano music just doesn't do it for me when it comes to fast-paced snowboarding games.

So do you know any modern games that have this rocking hard rock/punk music?
