I believe it is 20. Fairly sure I made it through Trap shooting which seems the easier of the two - don't quote me on that though. Will get back into these guides shortly, got another guide I am hoping to get out this weekend. Not promising, as I have a concert to go to this weekend as well, but might get it done. --- ~ Ringworm ~ |

Thanks for the number, Eternal_Debate. I was kinda hoping that is would have been 15 for Trap Shooting. I have got to round 19 on Marksman Shooting, but the required percentage for that game levels out at 82%. around round 15. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

Games'/Glacoras' Claim Update I have just claimed Marksman Shooting / Trap Shooting and Marksman Shooting / Trap Shooting / Safari Hunt. I have reached round 75 on Marksman Shooting and am certain I can write a guide for it before the end of the week. I only claimed Trap Shooting because it is a part of a Compliation, while Safari Hunt is already covered. Because I have other games I specifically want to complete this year, I have removed my claim for Golden Axe encase anyone else wants to complete it in the meantime. I do not have anything written down for this game, so please do not ask. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

Yeah, Gangster Town was the exact game I was asking a few pages back. I popped in the game today and it had everything that I remembered like shooting the villains in the car and shooting the guy's hat in the game over screen to get an extra try. I have only played the first level, but should be an exciting game. --- "Bob, wheres yo mind at?" - Mark Wilkins from Resident Evil Outbreak Baltimore Orioles: 64-98 | Baltimore Ravens: 10-8 |

^ Glad to here it. Marksman Shooting Levels - Just finished the game (in a sense). From level 14 onwards to 99, A0, A1... P5, it was just a repeat of level 14. After P5 came level 0, which is just a mind **** with superfast ceiling targets and bottom-left targets that teleport to the bottom-right. Thankfully, you do get some normal targets and you should (by that time) be able to shoot them with ease to get the required 1% to continue with the game. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

Chuck Rock guide WAS finished, not sure what happened though - opened it the other day and seems my last save of the file accidentally deleted part of one level. Not a major deal, was replaying the game adding images anyway which is why I haven't submitted it yet. Just lost a bit of motivation for it, plus have another guide to get done by this weekend (Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games on Wii - want to get the guide out to coincide with the games themselves). Seems I might have been wrong with the number of levels there Games - wasn' t paying a lot of attention I'll admit. Might have been another game I was getting confused with. Had a feeling it didn't continue far based on the % required though. --- ~ Ringworm ~ |

With Trap Shooting, it doesn't. I am hoping that Trap Shooting is not as long as Marksman Shooting was, as that was pathetic after round 30. So far, I am on level 21 on Trap Shooting and hoping it will end soon enough. At least it gets harder throughout the game, instead of pretty much staying the same. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

Before I forget. @selmiak, you may want to read the original topic you have archived on your site. Me and TD was reading it earlier this week (same day he claimed Air Rescue) and I noticed that it has a large amount of Emulator/ROM discussion, which might get your site flagged for illegal activities (like what happened last year, IIRC). --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

I dunno where you got the info on the cities in Rampage from Games, but so far I've been to nine with 5 stages per. At a guess I would say 130 wouldn't be too far off. However, since this is a mindless grind through about 4 different stages that are repeated a million times, it doesn't really matter all that much. --- It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt - Mark Twain |

I have just finished Trap Shooting and have uploaded it. I have also combined my previos Marksman Shooting guide with my new Trap Shooting guide and submitted that as well to make sure that the game is now considered complete. As I am unsure how this site handles Compliation games like Marksman Shooting/trap Shooting/Safari Hunt, I would like to ask selmiak to allow my to update the site after I verify whether or not GameFAQs considers that game as complete or not. If this site does not agree with it, I may have to either write another guide for Safari Hunt to get that game complete or try to talk to the person who has already covered Safari Hunt to ask if I could use his Safari Hunt guide to complete that game for this site (with co-author credits, of course). --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

My guide got both accepted and rejected on the same day! Basically, SB decided that there should only be a general guide that contains both games OR in-depth guides for an individual game, not both types of guides from the same user. Additionally, my General Guide does also cover the 3-combo game, so that knocks another game out (which I was worried about it not doing earlier on). Although I am glad that this has happened for this guide, I am now worried about my Bug Hunter/Moon Dash guides (ARCH), as I want to have the game completed according to this site, but also want to have the games in individual guides. Anyway, this has nothing to do with the project, so it does not matter too much. Also, congrats to TD for his Rampage guide. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

Just been looking on strategywiki.org and found this useful information for some games: Gauntlet has 100 levels, but starts looping after the first 7. Sonic Spinball guide - http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_Spinball/Walkthrough - I remember there being more than 2 rounds for the GameGear version, but that would be a bridge we would have to cross if we try to complete the GameGear. Streets of Rage 2 characters - http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Streets_of_Rage_2/Characters - may be useful for someone writing a guide for this game. Additionally, I found this informative for Wonder Boy - http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Wonder_Boy - which mentions that the SMS (and GameGear) versions had a hidden Stage 10 that the arcade version did not have. This may be worth making a SMS-specific guide to include this information, as it would make the current Arcade guide incomplete for this game. --- Want to be able to submit System Requirements for games?

@MP: there is no other way to unclaim a game other than posting here and Games or I will take care of it. Maybe I will implement it but with 2 removed claims vs 25 completed and 14 claimed games while the project is running there is no real need for this. And if it would be implemented this will just lead to confusion ;) @Games: This is interesting. We could add it and then mark it as completed by another system because that's how gameFAQs categoriezes it. But if it that different it should be unlinked on GameFAQs and be added as unFAQd to our list. If it is not that different I see no reason to add it to the list now. --- I don't care who your dad is!

I've provided SB with the link and explained what is different. In fact, I agree with the forth round being different on the GameGear/SMS, as it seems to be wrong from my experience on both games. It is now up to SB whether the differences are enough to remove the cross-link or not.

Fairly sure the Sonic Spinball walkthrough linked to earlier is incomplete - think that only covers part of the first level - don't think it is even all of the level either. From memory there are four levels, been a little while since I played it, and that was on Mega Drive. Guessing it is much the same on Master System. May have a crack at writing that (not a claim for now) after I clean my backlog of guides out a bit. If anyone else wants to write it - go for it. Not a bad game with save states, quite hard without them. --- ~ Ringworm ~ |

Wonder Boy Update Submitting my evidence to SB about the Wonder Boy Arcade guide and he has removed the link to the SMS version of the game. This means that Wonder Boy no longer has a complete guide for it AT ALL and is considered incomplete by this website. Good luck to anyone who decides to claim that guide.
