I saw an advert for a "create you own games package" about a year ago, it was cheap so I thought I would buy it. I have only just realised how much I can do with this package!! first I started with a building blocks game, because it was supposed to be easy, but I just finished my masterpiece!!.....hangliding action man!! oh yeah, he flies left and right and some how can also swoop in a vertical line downwards!! his mission?? to land on a white block! now does this sound cool or what?? what?? you will be saying, what i mean is that, games about 15 years ago would have followed these sorts of lines, and until you actually make your own game, you don't understand how much work is put into some of the titles we play now, like Perfect dark took over 3 years to make, my game took just over 3 months of lazy on and off adjustments. My game reprazents the begging of life to me, and when I swith on my N64 it doesn't show me anything, I can't beleive that a group of people were capable of making such an incredible masterpeice of a game. My advice to you, is to buy a small games producing package, if you like it move on to a move advanced programme, and maybe even a course at a college, or a summer course. You might think i'm babbling on, well maybe I am, but you should definatley try it out, it will make you realise how lucky you are to be able to have it made for you, you don't have to do any thing but walk down to your shop and hand over some cash, or not even that!! you can just send your e-mail to Special reserve with your credit card details!! so next time you diss a game! don't it's no tright to totally distroy somebodies hard work over some small amount of time playing it. if you don't like a game it's only because you havn't played it completly or are just to annoyed about some small detail that you look past the whole thing.
Special reserve have a competition for a games creation package in their magazine, you never know you could win, then you don't even have to buy a package.

OK, yeah these games are bad, but the people that made them did not have loads of crazy ideas like......RARE, they made the best games around!! diddy Kong racing, goldeneye, Conker's BFD, Jet Force Jemini, Blast corps!!! all these games are different and in their own ways have certain traits that makes us want to buy them!! Superman 64 was probably made by some Superman fanatics that wanted to keep the superman inside us all alive! and as you said, it didn't work.
Yes I understand that there is an exception, but if you think how long it took them to design MGS, perfect dark(well maybe not so much as Goldeneye) all games take along time to make and think of, some games are not worth making and some games rule the world, it just depends on what you like. i'm sure that if you saw my first game, you would wonder what I was taking at the time, or what the h@#l you had to do, but everyone starts somewhere, and goes on to better things.
that's a point, if you can tell me who made it, it might make a bit more sense, if they're a new company then you'll undertsnad that it might be their first venture into a big market, but if it was a big producer like Acclaim then they should be ashamed and go sit in a corner.

Superman 64 is awful apparently the most challenging puzzle is solving a maze which consists of hoops all lined up in the correct order in a big spiral.
