    Anyone else love How I Met Your Mother? Not the funniest show ever or anything but it's great to just watch a season a day, need to pay very little attention to it. :pac:

    Awesome show, Barney is great! I usually just Sky+ it and have a How I met your mother marathon!

    Mario Kart 64 and Goldeneye are the two finest multiplayer games ever made.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Sangre


    Goldeneye aged badly (and quickly).

    I always thought Southpark was a great MP game on the N64 (greatest console ever).

    I can't believe what I'm hearing. Goldeneye set the standard by which every other FPS was judged. Admittedly the character rendering doesn't look the greatest now, but the game was almost infinitely replayable. Like remember trying to beat levels on 007 mode in under the time limit to get the unlocks??

    I'm seriously considering an N64 off ebay just to play Goldeneye and Mario64 again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Sangre


    Don't get me wrong. Goldeneye will be known as one of the greatest FPS games of all time. It broke a lot of new ground. I unlocked every single cheat possible.

    However, I found that the MP aged very badly compared to other games like Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart or Diddy Kong Racing. I found it hard to go back to Goldeneye MP after the "sequel" perfect dark. I could never go back and play it now.

    Diddy Kong Racing was fcuking AMAZING. I loved the battle mode. Almost preferred it to Mario Kart.

    I really like starfox 64 as well actually... And Banjo Kazooie... OMG WHAT A GAME!!!!!!!

    The memories...
