"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."

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.

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 :)

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

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.

The planes were great fun, but they also seem to be the main reason why no-one could actually finish the game.

Yeah I have a vague recollection of those peices. I think I had about 3 but then I got stuck.

I don't think anyone could fly the planes, you know. I think when we play it again we'll find the exact same thing.

You're lucky to still have Tooie. It sells for about £45 these days, as doe CBFD. I really should have bought those 2 games, but they were £60 each and I had just bought a Dreamcast when CBFD came out. My neighbours have Tooie I think I might steal it off of them and then maybe sell it. After completion of course.

Surely the best game no one ever completed?


I got to the boss just after the bit where you help defend that massive fortress, right at the end of the American world I beleive.

Unfortunatly you had to fly there, and I crashed my plane quite a way south in some mountains and couldn't get out. Last save was miles away and I never bothered again.



Did anyone ever collect all those pieces to make that secret weapon? The only one I ever managed to find was the dagger thingy.

I got to about the 4th world I think, got stuck on this bit with a load of lava and never played it again.

Think I'm gonna invest in this once I've finished Tooie, Perfect Dark and Jet Force Gemini for about the 50th time.

I got stuck on an island too.
I was just flying around in my plane exploring and then I crashed on some island and killed my plane.

Of course the island had no new planes or boats on it, so I had no escape.
