"Music is my mistress, and she shall play second fiddle to none". - Duke Ellington
I got an N64 and i was really pleased with it.
Of course i played on mates PS1 and some of the games i really liked.
Then i played FF7 for 15 mins and i was hooked, so i went and got a PS1 with FF7.
I soon got more games and near tghe end i only had about 5 games i really really liked, that being FF 7 and 8, MGS, driver and hogs of war.
Now i know that there must be more games that are good, FF9 and GT series(although i hate racing games).
But i found that the games were not as good as the N64.
Now i know you will think im shallow but the graphics are all blocky, im only saying this becuase PS2 owners are going on about the graphics the ps2.
But when your used to graphics as good as the N64 its a let down.
Now to stop people saying im only intrested in graphics then no im not, i find that after playing the '64, which has no blocks in the good games, and then playing ps1 with the blocks lets the whole game down.
Im not talking little diffrence but massive blocks which are truely horrible.
Thats why i find that the games are not as good becuase the graphics do make you not enjoy it as much.
I think that the main games on the '64 wipe the floor with the Ps1 becuase of this.
If PS1 was a 64 bit, i think, it would have deserved the hype it got, and would more than likely be able to rival the zelda and perfect dark on '64.
Its really hard to try and explain what i mean, but i tryed my best.
Im sure if anyone can understand it they will be able to explain better, maverick where are you??
Take Diddy Kong Racing, the game is 5 years old but its brilliant. It doesnt matter that it doesn't look real! Playing it, having fun with it and ENJOYING it is what its all about! Thats the whole point of gaming. If I wanted to play realistic games i'd open the front door and play outside for Gods Sake!!
Anyway, I think i've made my point. I love my N64, I love all my games (44 of) I love all my soundtracks and YOU wont EVER change my mind!
NUFF SAID!
That rules.
Also when your older i think you will see that things are good even if no one talks about them/not being made any more or are not the latest model.
I for one love the N64 and still play on it, i love the snes more though.
Talking about the snes i got one again, hurray.
