You know, these days you hear a lot of people talk about Halo or complain about people who talk about Halo, saying how great the game is and how it is the end-all be-all FPS.
You know what? This is what the console FPS fans said for YEARS about Goldeneye 64. Seems everyone who owned a N64 at least played that game, if not own it -- after all, I recall reading that Goldeneye sold nearly 1-to-1 to N64 systems.
But personally, I thought the game was stupid. For example, I remember in one stage there was a big, open pit that opened to the lower floor. But you couldn't drop down through it! That sure irratated me! Not only that, but if I recall right, you couldn't freely look around independently from moving either. Dumb dumb dumb!
