Title: Yoshi Story - Love or Hate?
Post by: Volvagia on July 03, 2010, 08:21:51 PM
A lot of people seem to really hate this game, probably because it's so easy. But I love it, the music more than anything else, but the gameplay is fun and enjoyable too... So what if you can't play through each world in every chapter in one sitting? That's the fun in it - replay value. More levels, more fun... etc...

I LOVE the jungle hut music in this game... I dunno though I only have two friends irl that like this game the rest hate it ;~;

Your opinions on this game?

HAVE SOME WONDERFUL YOSHI STORY MUSIC TO TAKE WITH YOU WHILST POSTING.

Love it.

But I think part of it is because Yoshi is my favourite video game character. And this game, despite it being so easy and short, really built Yoshi's character up for future generations. That, and the atmosphere was really nice in this game and was really fitting for the type of game it was.

It still doesn't compare to Yoshi's Island though.

I loved it so so much, but have never told anyone else before. =)

I hated it. Doesn't it lack a save function entirely? I never actually played the game, my brother did, but it looked boring and anytime I played it felt boring. I should probably replay it though, just for the nostalgia.

Yoshi's Island is one of my favorite games.

It auto-saves after every chapter.

I enjoy it for what it is, but I wish it could have been more. Yoshi's Island outclasses it ridiculously. But it is certainly not "bad" in any way. Just not anything more than "good."

I hated it because I've had high expectations for it.
The designing of it was too comforting for my tastes, and I didn't like the graphic styles they've used in the game--it made it seem boring.  akudood;

That's about 3 Mario platformers behind, but whatever. n_u

At the end of each level you could jump between those two striped bars. The height of your jump gave you a number and they would add up. You get a life every time you get 100.

Fuck yes, (http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:IlWFZpjXcQRP4M:http://www.nlc.state.ne.us/blogs/NLC/uploads/images/thumbs_up.jpg)

Yoshi's Story was the shit, although one thing i didn't like about it was the fact that you couldn't play every level, you had to pick one out of every group.
My favorite level is that one with the jelly blocks. I know i'm really descriptive here, but whatever

Loved it. Played it as a kid, so that's probably why I thought it was hard as hell. I never could unlock all the levels, because I had no clue what I needed to do to unlock them.

Yea I loved Yoshi's Story! Way too easy, but that's when you step up your game and beat every level by only getting melons. I liked the volcano levels, with the Blaargs, thats by far one of my favorite mario characters, that and shy guy. There's actually more to tell, but that's all I can say.

Also Black and White Yoshi's FTW!!!!

I was saying how the new Kirby game kinda reminded me of Yoshi's Story to a guy at a used vg store, and he was saying how people come in looking for YS all the time...

Yeah. I literally created a save file right before that level, and played that one level over and over again. It shat on the rest of the game with it's awesomeness.

Post by: Samus Aran on July 17, 2010, 11:57:13 AM
you can only have one "file" at a time

not that you'd need to do that anyway because trial mode lets you pick any level you've already played
