"*Revives N64*"

Took a couple of goes to get it going, started with Quake Multiplayer and soon No Mercy shall be dusted off.

Decided I'm going to take back 10-15 games with me when I go back up to scotland including:

C&C
Every Single THQ wrestling game
Road Rash 64
OOT + Majora's Mask (if I can find it)
Hybrid Heaven (Brilliant - all N64 owners grab a copy now)


Possibles:

F-Zero
Wipeout 64
The Extreme G's
Turok 2
Fighters Destiny


Might sell the possible's instead.

Got back into Goldeneye not too long ago. I was expecting it to disappoint me and not be as good as I remembered it, but it was still so good. This is a testament to how good Goldeneye is, when you can come back to it at least 5 years since it was last played and still enjoy it more than any of today's first person shooters.

Ah! That reminded me. I need one too.
I just got one for £3.50 inc P&P from ebay.
FF7 and MGS wouldn't be the same without some good sound. :-)

Once that arrives I'll have everything I need to get started, except I'm keeping myself away from it until June once everyone in the household has no more exams. It wouldn't do to cause long term sufferage (not to mention the fact that mum would burn the whole lot if she suspected it would get in the way of exams! :-D)

Hybrid Heaven is indeed a great game, although definately not the MGS killer people were saying it could be at the time. Highly recommended by me however as well :]

Also nice to see a game like Fighters Destiny in the list, wonderful in 2 player, took me a while to get into it but if you have two pretty proficient players it can be a lot of fun.

About Shadowman, bit of an odd game to "recommend" as it was so highly praised at the time. Story line was good, atmosphere was good, game was just generally really good :]

I'm attempting to complete Banjo Kazooie right now. Finished Mario 64 a few weeks ago.

I got my N64 back out to try and beat all the top class platformers.

Still a great multiplayer system as well. For a few days, Goldeneye, Mario Kart 64 and No Mercy were using up pretty much all of my time. Ah, it was like 1998 all over again. :-)

Ahhhh! I see!
Yeh, I bought a 'used' copy of Reisent Evil 2 in GAME once and it hardly ever loaded!

My one? It's still going, I haven't got the scart connection for my PSone yet.

Exactly.

mmmm...Diddy Kong Racing...

My 64 is in a specially designed console bay under my PC. Haven't got around to reconnecting the Scart lead though, must do that....

Think I bought Shadowman off Hedfix. Was playing it a while ago, and was into it. Then stopped playing for a bit for some reason. Tried to go back to my game the other week and was completely lost on what I was doing, or where I was going. Think I might have to start from the beginning again!
