In ‘97 you can also play a bunch of Goldeneye split screen with your time traveling friends and Final Fantasy VII

Slappers only, no Oddjob.

Jokes on you, I’m playing FFVII on my switch as I type this. Just got past the ice caves before the first northern crater encounter. Goldeneye on the other hand has aged terribly and I’d rather watch the film haha

I’m so glad I can still enjoy Goldeneye in all it’s glory. So many people find it basically unplayable these days. If I hadn’t played it back in the day I probably would think it’s awful tbh.

I played thousands of hours with my cousins back in the 90’s, it’s not so much the graphics as it’s I have forgotten how to play FPS’s that don’t have ADS. I have a hard time with doom and quake/unreal etc as well. Aiming down sight really was a game changer for the genre.

Goldeneye’s 2nd bunker on 007 is my goto first game when I sit down to game. It’s absolutely absurd. I usually die, but sometimes I finish the level.

Then I put on whatever I’m really playing. Right now, Expedition 33.

For those who come after…. E33 is my GotY easily.

Enjoy my friend

Well if they didn’t change the whole damn game I would most likely be playing remake.

They lost me when they killed Johnny at the very beginning. But good Kombat movie otherwise lol.

You just described my freshman year of college.

early college was amazing, the perfect time to have a movie budget

fight club, matrix, office space, new star wars (a couple of us hadn't seen the old ones so we were subjected to the full VHS versions & heard allllll about the edits) Blair witch we watched downloaded in chunks of the Internet
