Well I have Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Land, Super Marioland 2, Wario Land (aka Super Marioland 3...was Mario in the Japanese version or was Wario the star in it), Metroid 2 : The Return Of Samus (a VERY good game), WCW Main Event, and Zelda IV : Link's Awakening. I'll probably get the new Color GB when it comes out and some new games. I'd like to get the Final Fantasy Legend series (FFL1, FFL2, FFL3) and some other RPGs. --- Telegard v3.02 * Origin: The Steiner Line BBS 910-626-7985 (1:3648/6) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 170 VIDEO GAMES Ref: F5G00033 Date: 04/11/98 From: SHAWN SPEAR Time: 09:41am \/To: CHRIS MCCULLOUGH (Read 0 times) Subj: No. of Jag titles?

CM> CM> but i do know where your talkin about..that room you cant go in... That's not true, you get Ifrit on the boat on the way to Costa Del Sol. You get Odin from the safe. I know this for sure, cause I played the game 2 times, and I'm on my second game.. The first game, I tried opening the safe, and I didn't want to look in a walk through..I never got the combo. The 2nd game I played, I used the walktrough to make sure I got all the secrets, and in the walkthrough, it says that you get Odin, and I got odin from it too. ___ X NFX v1.3 [000] Graphic Offline Mail Reader. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.

But anyway some games on 64 do have replay value. WCW DM> is a blast, so is breakaway 98. <--- Also has tons of speech! I haven't tried them yet, I can't play the N64 everyday.. All my friends have Playstations, only my cousin has a N64 (from the people I know).. and he's disapointed in it.. Anyways.. From the games I have played there isn't much games where at one point in my life I told myself -> I just HAVE to re-rent that game, or even BUY IT, or if you already played it, then CONTINUE FURTHER in the game.. I played Golden Eye 64 mostly out of boredum.. there's never much to do over at my cousin's house anyways :) Till now, no game had such an effect on me.. while the playstation? When I played games such as Need for Speed, I can't put the controller down, cause it's too funny, when you are with a friend that is.. We always crack up cause of the crashes... (I bought that game).. Resident Evil II is just too fun, you want to know what happened to the guys and all that.. (bought it). Jet Moto is really fun, I bouyght it mostly cause of the Power Price though :).. Crash Bandicoot is pretty funny.. Final Fantasy 7, I couldn't put the controller down to go to the bathroom, Wild Arms.. about 2 weeks after I rented it, I HAD to play again.. so I bought it.. And I bought SaGa Frontier and FF Tactics cause it was By SquareSoft, my fav. company.. ___ X NFX v1.3 [000] Graphic Offline Mail Reader. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.

DM> DM> I said 64DD Discs. Not Carts. Do you know how much a multi-cart game would DM> cost? Jeez, like $500 per multi-cart game. But aren't the Discs cheaper? I DM> though they were going to be way cheaper. They will be cheaper then Carts, but still don't compare to CDs. ___ X NFX v1.3 [000] Graphic Offline Mail Reader. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.

The worst part, is that there is also another hidden character, Akuma, you need to finish the game 6 times using ONLY you Hand Gun and Knife!!

You can see where everyone is DM> is but it still is surprisingly fun. There are still ways to surprise DM> your oppponent. But Goldeneye isn't as fun as Duke was. Goldeneye had DM> too much slowdown. Yes, I have played it, or else I wouldn't be commenting on it. You don't see me putting comments on that wrestling game, WCW vs NWO I think? Why? Cause I haven't played it.. I didn't like Golden Eye 64, it was just TOO unrealistic! I mean, you shoot a guy in his butt, he just scratches it, doesn't even turn aroun! You can kill him by shooting his foot 3 times! And the guys disappeer right in front of you.. Also, in some levels, there's an UNLIMITED number of bad guys, that sux! Cause you can't really have a strategy, like, I'll hide behind this wall, then kill him, bla bla bla.. Well, in some levels you can, but most of them, tehre's a part where you pass by, there's no one.. you open a door, and then suddenly, there's 3 people in the room you just came out of! DM> Well of coarse. But you can see if the stores are doing well and the DM> crime and stuff like that. The faces on the people don't really DM> matter. You hate carts don't you. Personnaly, I prefre having my little radar on top showing me where I need to put police stations/hospitals/etc..etc.. than having to zoom in the streets and see the same people everywhere.. DM> I read that you can import pictures from the TV and your VCR and DM> play around with them. I also read something about making new DM> characters in games too. I wonder what the resolution of the DM> screen will be on it. I hope they can get it at 640x480. DM> Cuz' 256 x 256, or even 320x240(or 320x200) would suck. I can see that happening, the Import Pictures from TV and your VCR.. But I haven't heard anything on the subject itself.. As for the resolutiuon? I doubt they'll put it that big.. I mean, their console is aimed at a "kid" audience.. And not artists... ___ X NFX v1.3 [000] Graphic Offline Mail Reader. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.
