"Body Harvest"

I just re-bought it for £7. You should all do the exact same, unless you were clever enough not to sell it in the first place:

"Some tasks are pure genius: a harvesting wave attacks an elementary school in America 1966. Your goal is to lead the children to the nearby church, but they're not getting on the school bus you hop into. Hop into an ice cream truck named Mr. Lolly, and watch the children follow. Mr. Lolly's "weapon" is a hilarious ice cream jingle. Imagine slowly driving an ice cream truck down the street, jingling a happy tune, aliens are beaming down and attacking all around you, and you have about 20 children following after you that you need to lead to the church. It's moments like this that make you realize the brilliance of Body Harvest's gameplay."

I only bought Tooie the other day, got it for £15 from gamestation.

The hardest N64 game to find is Paper Mario, sells upwards of £50 these days which is pretty damn stupid considering. Pity I couldn't see into the future as I'd have bulk buyed a load and sold them off to the slack jawed gorkers on Ebay.

Except that games like Paper Mario and Tooie retailed at £60 back in the day, o you wouldn't be amking any profit. Obviously you'd have got to play the games, but who cares about that when theres cash to be made

God, remember that bit in Java where the evil black version of you turns up as you're on a massive mountain path, and summons about 13 thousand enemies to beam down?

Sodding ridiculous that was. But then it made up for it when you got to [attempt] to pilot the hovercraft around to save all those people from the volcano eruption, which I think is where Tilt got stuck.

That was about stage 4 of world 2 by the way, so you had plenty left to go :)

You could pick both games up on the net for £30 if remember right.
I originally bought Tooie from WhSmiths a few weeks after it was released for £30 I think.

It was Conker that was originally selling for £60, luckily I had a friend who was generous enough to 'borrow' it from work for me.

All I remember was driving a Howitzer facing two mass armies of bugs, then having to abandon the vehicle and face them on foot, blasting my weedy gun while they sapped my health.

Very fun game though.

Turok was originally £70. Madness!

Actually, I do know someone who completed it. Maybe if we get stuck I can ask him for help. I envisage us all getting stuck as soon as we get the game, to be honest.

I would've completed it, but I got stuck because of the bug on one of the levels were a shield wall portal wouldn't open.

After that I lost the will to play it.

That was like the first level wasn't it?

Yes it was.
