Ha that's awesome, I'll give it a go. I beat the game last night. I might try again and NOT throw the mask off when I make it to the top of Mount Doom. Maybe different ending?
I also haven't completed all of the side quests yet. Two are vexing me. One is someone who wants me to test their weapon but I think I may have sold it. The other is the creepy guy in Duran(?) who wants me to get items for him but I never have what he needs and he won't tell me what he needs.
