Remember those days? There was nothing you could do, except perhaps asking some friend that happened to play the same game. Sometimes you could be stuck for weeks.
The first place I got stuck : 5/6th level of Dune 2 (whichever level you could for the first time upgrade a turret)
but the most memorable by far : Tomb Raider 2, in three places :
1.) The damned Opera House

I think that I overlooked a vent that I could crawl into
2.) 40 Fathoms

I couldn't switch off all of the burners on the way to the exit so I just ran through and used medipaks until I
reached the exit :P
3.) The Wreck of the Maria Doria

Took me weeks to notice a ledge I had overlooked in the massive level. It was also the first level I played with
my pentium 200 and could witness 640x480 running smoothly (drool)
Anyone else had similar hold-ups in a game that lasted weeks? I wonder sometimes whether my tr2 experience would've been significantly less memorable if I had used a walkthrough :P
