I feel that Perfect Dark was a lot better than Goldeneye, but for some reason significantly less people had heard of it, at least in my circle of friends. The Datadyne levels at the start were awesomely tense, also the fact you could knock guys out.

Shooting a guy in the crotch in PD and having him say 'Whyy...me?' Was a great combination of :lol: and :smith: that I won't forget. You could even shoot guns out of people's hands!

Wow that game really did have everything.


e: the gun that you could turn into a mine was so awesome! You use all your ammo and throw an exploding loving gun at them! EAT IT CUNTS.

It came out way late in the N64s life but yeah, it owned, totally jammed with cool stuff. It's a real late nineties game in its attitude.

Great memories of battle tanks. That tumbling tank was the best one. Saving your Goliath tank for last. And the fact you were killing each other over women was sweet too. The objective was to kidnap the other teams woman to use as your brood sow.

ugh, gross.

On Goldeneye and Perfect Dark we used to set no score limit and no time limit and play 4 player literally all night, into morning. I kind of look back on that in awe, these days about 3 hrs at a time is the most I can game it up.

same but we also used to plow through games like ICO, too.
