Bullshit. Did you see Bungie's new game Halo when Steve Jobs did his keynote at Macworld? You all are laughing now, but Macs are the future of gaming

Did you hear Microsoft is gonna make a console to compete with the ps2?

Basically a PC you can't do your taxes on. What's the point?

I saw a bad review for it back in the day, and that was that. Plus the box art looked too edgy for me.

W:A got a massive update from Team 17 a few years ago that makes it fully compatible with modern systems and QoL improvements.

Team17 hasn't made a patch for WA since 2002. At that point, they gave the source code to a fan and he's been consistently updating it ever since.

Fun fact, the updated version still runs properly on Windows 95, including online.

In a weird way, this became true, but it was just iOS and not MacOS that everyone games on now.

This new Rogue Spear game rules. I have to go to my granpa's house with a zip disk to get any mods since I have lovely dialup, but wow. This series is going to go the distance, you watch.

since it's 1999 and not 1989 I'm assuming AGA Amiga so it and 64DD are about on par when it comes to having a software library anyone wants to play, but the base N64 can do action games with double digit FPS and music at the same time as sound effects so your friend is right

Haven't you guys heard about the sequel to Goldeneye they're making?? You can use the gameboy camera to put your own face on the characters!!!

I heard it's so big it needs the expansion pack though. Luckily I already have the one that came with Donkey Kong 64.

Felt like all the edgelords back then were trying to work xXx - xXx and 'Sephiroth' into their chat / game handles. The best of times, the worst of times.

I recall the admin of an ezboard I frequented worked Aerith and Hojo into the mix. Not that she was an edgelord, she just really liked Sephiroth.
