How long do people think the N64 has left to live?
With games like Perfect Dark, Zelda: The Continuing Sage, Turok 3, A Resident Evil game, Top Gear Rally 2, and a bunch of other wicked games this year. How long will the N64 live for? Specially with the PS2 and Dolphin on the horizon how much longer can the N64 last?
Cooky
Lets do a discussion on the history of monkeys in games - from the King Kong in Rampage to the N64 platfroming mayhem of DK64. Monkey games are the best!!!! HOORAY!!!!
AAAAAHHHH, what do you mean that PD does not live up to the hype?? theres a song I couldn't sing, but you know what??.....I won't. you probably wouldn't know it anyway. I havn't yet played the full game, I have only had the chance to blow things up on the challenges and Multiplayer modes, i can tell you that playing 2 players on a 4 player screen is not good for your eyes, and i really want to kill as many of my mates at the same time as possible, they're getting really bored of me killing them one after another!!! one question, did you ever take on 3 mates at the sma etime on Goldeneye?? it's great, they all gang up on you at the same time, but because your better and faster and you have most probably played the game a million times and know every millimetre of the level, you can run away and blow them all up at the same time!!!! I want to do that on this game, but maybe I'll use a remote missile, or trap them with a N-Bomb and then waste them with a cyclone discharge!! how can you say this game isn't good, you obviously played Goldeneye too much and realise it's the same type of thing! except on Goldeneye you can't play against 11 other people at the same time on a mulitplayer challenge!! oh and did you realise that there are over 40 massive weapons, they had this on Goldeneye but you included all the doubles, and every gun could be doubled!! so really Goldeneye only had about 20-25 individual guns, PD has 40!! and you have to be able to perfect them all!!!
I can't wait until the 26th then I can experience the full capabilities of the N64!
By the way, do you think that I should order a copy of the play-squirrel?? it might just be the edge that I need to get those fluffy tailed rats! I have everything set, my bomber pidgeons are set at my window sill, and my army of ants and termites are ready to make them itch for all their worth! plus my trusted hampster is ready to climb the winding pipes of their tree to sabotage their nuts.
The magazine might be needed to keep them inside the tree while my troops go to work.
Take the nuts, peanut butter and copies of play-squirrel magazine and hide them in your neighbours garden, thus any squirrels wandering through your premises will be tempted to the other side of the fence to bother someone else, and if you get rumbled for the scam, you get to be on TV. 'Neighbours from hell'. Great.
I think this midnight I'll get the ladders out and spread a peanut butter trail up the side of the house next door (with a small rope ladder) leading to a hole I will make leading into their attic. Then I will fill their loft with all the previously mentioned squirrel goodies, and I will be protected for ever.
On the not being playing perfect dark for ever note, it wasn't as good as I expected (not to say it isn't a good game, it couldn't live up to all the hype for me) and so I'm back with less battered fingers than I anticipated.
Anyway, back to your squirrel army idea, it's a brilliant scheme to take over the world, because no one but squirrel experts would dare to confront them head on! but in the other hand, ol' farmer jiles would take his tractor and his loaded 12 bore and kill a few of the tiny rodents! they're not indestructble, that is the only flaw in this ingenius plan! maybe you can write to the Warner Bros studio and make up a script for `pinky and the brain!` If you havn't had squirrels before and I don't think you have in according to you last letter, then you should take drastic precausions as soon as possible!!
Build a 10ft concrete wall around your hause and then employ your own highly trained army to gaurd it, plus add some tiny holes in the wall for archers to shoot from(purely optional, but has a great affect!) get rid of all squirrel temptations from your house, these include: penut butter, nuts, mini TV+Video sets(the ones in your little sister's doll house) Perfect dark and Goldeneye carts(this is they're way of making the world fall to their feet) I stopped them quickly in their tracks when the mother of squirrels got mine! and last but definately not least, underpants!! they use these for their runny noses and blankets, obviously not at the same time because that could get messy if you have a cold and can't move from your bed!
TAKE PRECAUSIONS AND BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR THE GREY MASSES!!!!
I am now off to to the kitchen to make myself a breakfast! there is no one in my house so i can plug my N64 into my dad's new widescreen TV and munch on some tasty walnuts.
So maybe drowning the squirrels was best after all. Humanity just better hope the squirrels don't visit my place, nobody in my family could kill them, and the ancient prophercy would come true. That'd be bad.
Hang on, I promised a question. Okay, this joke I just remembered. I'll write it in 2 replies to this message. The question wil be;
Do you want to hear my squirrel joke?
