About Trey McGowan
Expertise
I can answer strategy questions for just about any video games. RPGs and collecting/raising sims are my major specialty, though I am also experienced in general strategy games, a variety of MMORPGs, and possibly even some much more esoteric ones. I can't promise that I'll be able to answer all your questions from personal experience, but I can promise that if I can't, I will do my utmost to research the answer before I give it to you.

Best consoles to ask about: NES, SNES, GB/GBC, GBA, Playstation, Playstation II. If you are asking outside of this list, please give a little extra time for some research to be done on the game.

Please note: if you are wanting a particular version of strategy (i.e. a *fast* playthrough, a powerful playthrough, a challenge game, a specific boss beat in a specific way), make sure the details are added. The more I know about what *you* want to know, the better.

Experience
I am an avid player of video games of various types, including RPGs, strategy games, MMORPGs, et cetera. I have been playing since the Atari 1300 days, and even back then, learning the strategy and the like of the games was as interesting as beating it.

Organizations
Various video game boards, including GameFAQs

Publications

Education/Credentials
Upwards of twenty years in various video games playing and finishing. I have read FAQs extensively, and have educated myself directly in a lot of the games that I've played.

Question
hi i am stuck at the abydos place(if thats how u spell it)and i don't know where to get the third set of jewels and i can't do summersaults either. can you please help me.

Answer
Hi there, Coco!

This game seems to be one of the ones I get the most questions on. One of these days I should try it and see what the fuss is about!

To find the third Abydos Jewel, find your way into the set of trap rooms (the ones separated by fire and electricity). In the 'Fire Room', open the chest, and the jewel will be right inside.

As for the somersault, I'm assuming that you mean the double-jump (pressing the jump button a second time to be able to jump higher). To do this, you must obtain an item called 'The Wings Of Ibis'. This will come later in the game, if I read where you are. Don't worry; just pass by the areas you can't get to and continue from there.

As for being stuck in Abydos, you'll have to give me more detail than that. It's a big place, and I'm not at all sure where you're stuck at. More information would help me get you out of your sticky situation!

Trey
