Date: April 20th, 2026 11:21 AM Author: nigstomper420@tufts.edu agreed but GTA 3 was on the same level of "whoa holy shit." just in a somewhat different way because they were different types of games
GTA 3 was unbelievable. i remember me and my friends gathered around the TV on the day it came out and being completely blown away. there had never been anything like it. i can't even describe it with words, you just Had To Be There |

Date: April 20th, 2026 11:50 AM Author: nigstomper420@tufts.edu it was unreal man
a 3-D sandbox world where you could literally go around in a city and smash and shoot things, steal cars, drive around wherever you wanted, kill people, break laws, interact with the environment. for a teenage boy it was truly mind-blowing, unironically
just totally revolutionary and completely categorically unlike and above anything that came before it
world of warcraft didnt come out for several years after GTA 3 btw. and WoW was probably the next Step Change advancement in "holy shit, this is literally an interactive 3-D virtual world that you can Just Do Things in" |

Date: April 20th, 2026 11:30 AM Author: may his bones be crushed there are like 4 snes games
there are also a few on the nes and its crazy because they play just like the snes ones, they had so many mechanics and polish that just did not exist at all on nes games but they never get any accolades for what they did
as a side not i really didnt enjoy the n64 versions |

It’s crazy thinking back how many series I was introduced to by N64 because it was the first gaming system I ever played, quickly followed by a PS1 because my dad was a very kind-hearted prep who saw that one gaming system was not enough given how much my lovably 90s tomboy-lite older sister loved playing Super Mario 64 all weekend (an impulse buy of Harvest Moon: Back to Nature circa 1999 changed my life, unironically) |

I can’t remember the thread but I was just reminiscing the other day about randomly renting MGS2 over a long weekend as a 10 year old, thinking that the cover looked cool and otherwise having no clue, and then somehow completing the entire game even though to this day I have no idea how because not only am I generally retarded mentally, but golden paws don’t even have opposable thumbs so a lot of random button mashing occured (just as Kojima intended?) |

Date: April 20th, 2026 12:24 PM Author: Sol "the Lampshade" Coinblatt ((zurich is stained)) i preordered the N64. it came out just after i started college.
playing mario64 for the first time really was an insane, almost surreal, experience. i couldn't stop playing it and couldn't get over that videogaming had gotten to this point with graphics. goldeneye 007 and the zelda games (particularly OOT) were also really mind-blowing and incredible.
even though the graphics today are lightyears ahead of the n64, i have yet to be as impressed or amazed by a videogame experience as i was when the n64 came out. i guess it was the leap into true 3-D gaming that made it feel like a truly revolutionary development. |

Howard Lincoln successfully convinced the SDNY that donkey Kong didn’t infringe on king kong’s IP but he couldn’t convince the gaming press that Mario 64/pilotwings/Mario kart/Star Fox 64/blast corps/goldeneye could hold a candle to Jet Moto, FF7, Resident Evil 2, and Wipeout. |

Date: April 20th, 2026 4:19 PM Author: cowgod Too many GameCube games have better versions on N64. Not just worse for their time. Full-on Worse:
Wave Race Animal Forest Zelda Mario Star Fox James Bond
If you were like 3 in 2001 you experienced it differently. The gaming public in 2001-2005 was like wow this sucks. Gamecube was marked down to $75.
Trot out the western Reprieve all you want. Metroid was just their way of being like “hey guys it’s T-rated. FPV. 9.75/10.” 33/40 from Famitsu btw. |
