Take RareWare for example we don't hear from them that often but when we do they are guaranteed to come with a bang. Goldeneye is a fine example, it's a great game with brilliant graphics and some fantastic gameplay. Goldeneye took at least two years to develop but with a little patience and a lot of hard work Goldeneye was thrust infront of our noses and gave us miserable gamers something to talk about.
When it was released Goldeneye was the only thing on most gamer's minds, some folk even went to buy an N64 just so they could get their hands on this fantastic game and who can blame them Goldeneye certainly lives up to the hype it was surrounded by.
Another example is the awesome Mario world 64, stunning visuals great gameplay and some cute characters. Walking around inside peaches castle for the first time is something else.
Mario World 64 was a jaw dropping two years in the making but boy was it worth the wait.
Shigsy and Co certainly gave us a stunner of a game. (As usual)
But with the death of the N64close at bay I doubt we'll see many more fantastic games from Rare or Shigsy.
So with the N64 slowly walking over to it's death bed we have a short wait for Nintendo's next console the GameCube.
These next few months may be the longest few months of your life but I promise you it'll be worth the wait.
Why?
Because you're waiting for the most powerful most sought after Games Console ever.
Ok so the GameCube ain't quite as powerful as the mega powerful Xbox (Due for UK release shortly) but it's sure to give us a few pleasant surprises.
No doubt the new Zelda game will be one of them.
The GBA (Or Game Boy Advance) is also something that's taken donkeys years to make.
This "Gift from god" is the most powerful handheld console in the world.
There was a lot of hype around this console and it did nothing short of living up to it. Thanks to it's super powerful 32-bit graphical processor the GBA has the ability to hand out some spectacular games.
Whether it will use it's full potential in the near future or not we'll have to see.
We will be making a lot of advances in the gaming world this year such as the Xbox and the GameCube.
No doubt this brand spanking New Year will reveal some new consoles besides the Xbox and the GameCube.
There will also be some long waits involved too.
But whatever the console, whatever the game "Good things Come To Those Who Wait"
Thanks for reading!
