Did anyone else see the TV prog 'extremists' last night on channel 4? All about extreme sports. There was a bit on huge bungee jumps and they showed a clip from the Goldeneye film followed by a report by the guy who did the jump actually playing that level in the game. It was a great 'ad' for N64 (bit late now I know) and quoted as being 'one of the biggest selling games of all time'.

Great stuff. And a fantastic programme.

Timesplitters 2 is a pretty good replacement...

Thought not quite the same... too fast.

Ah, GoldenEye.
Best multiplayer game ever. Never been beaten and never will.
Forget online gaming and all the Xbox Live jazz, just give me those golden moment from years ago when I thrashed my opponents in one shot kills with pistols.

I remember watching a soap/tv drama once when a dad walks in and his son is playing on an N64. So the dad decides to have a go as well.

"That's all well and good", you might think, "but what's the point of telling us that, Unbeliever?"


Well...the idiots were holding the damn controller upside down! I raged at the TV for a few minutes before playing Goldeneye for real and giving my brother such a thrashing that he never recovered from it.

In Goldeneye, I memorised all the start points in multiplayer games. We used to play License To Kill with handguns. The best setting, I'd say. i used to kill my mates then run over to their next start point as soon as possible and dispatch them when they appeared! Hahaha!

I've seen Nintendo used in many a place...

In the Foo Fighters video "Times Like These" A GBA is shown in full view for a while before being chucked off of a bridge... it is the only actually product in the video. In Puddle of Mudd's video for Blurry the singer and his "son" are playing on the N64 for a while.
