There's a Red Goblin? Huh

The K-Mart you went to was clearly more boppin' than mine. lol 

Well by that time you'll be prepared. lol

I dig Bloodlines, but man is it tough, at least with John Morris. Apparently, Eric Lacarde is the game's "easy mode."

Good vibes. 

Yeah, I've never loved stealth in video games that aren't made specifically for it and don't get why so many people apparently do, or do game companies just see the success of MGS and assume they should shoehorn it in?

For me, they seem more frequent in Bloodlines though, thanks to the vertically moving stages. I did not have as much of an issue with Rondo of Blood, for example. Could be personal preference. 

Yeah and then I targeted the shield thing and I have been dodging with Cloud, but inevitably wind up getting hit. 

I switched to one or the other when spider robot grabbed Cloud or Barrett, but I definitely felt I was healing way too often. The characters yelled out to use magic, so I tried Barrett's Thunder and Cloud's fire pretty often, but once the missile barrage came I was boned. 

I love everything about this game on the Genesis Mini except a couple annoying deaths and the dinky SFX from the whip.
