Date: 01 Feb 2001 01:57:10 -0800 > > > Yeah! When are they going to make a other Hardcore game like WaveRace64? > > -Boudewijn- Oh the memories... Here's a little story. WaveRace 64 was the first ever game I rented for the N64 console. I was a dark and rainy night (that's practically everyday here in Vancouver) having no access to an automobile at the time, I had to take a 15 minute walk to my old hangout; a mom and pops videogame store that rents games and sell used games. When I got there, I knew what I wanted. Wave Race 64! So I proceeded to make the rental, and took another 15 minute walk home. It was a friday night, so I had just gotten home from school before making the trip to rent Wave Race, so when I finally got home, for the second time, I quickly turned the power on and plugged in the game, then proceeded to make dinner. As I was making dinner (I think it was macaroni) I heard sea guls calling, the sound of water splashing, a cheesy jazzy type music starting up, so i walked to where my 27 inch RCA TV (not as classy as Stryder's Trinitron, but it gets the job done) and saw the most beautiful, as the time, game I've laid eyes on. Just watching the waves splash about, the water, it blew me away. I hit reset and watched the intro sequence several times, for the most part, simply staring at the water effects. THen, I finally got to play the game over the weekend, got hooked into it right away and returned the game, with great reservation, on Sunday. The next thing I did was to get myself a copy... -- Dexter S.

Sometimes I will get angry when games don't come out over here as fast as I would like, but we have it nice compared to European vidgamers. I doubt we will see much of a change anytime soon though. Even though the European gaming market maybe improving, the NA markets gets bigger every years as well. Plus the difference in standards (NTSC vs PAL) pretty much assures that we will always get our copies first since Japan is also NTSC....at least until they ever decide to use the same standard.

Yeah, it proves it's possible, if a certain company owns "80%" of the market.


I mean, what's the f****ng advantage of not releasing ogre battle 64 here

Have you ever thought that maybe there are other new systems coming out that
will eat up profits for N64 games?  They don't think it will sell enough in
Europe.  This happens all of the time in the U.S. with games only released in
Japan.

And systematically pushing up the prices, only in europe? u know nintendo
got sued for that?
I think that if i buy import and pay extra shipment price it's still cheaper
and that might be exactly what i will do when the gamecube is released
and then -maybe- i will stay on this list

Steve
Well, I can understand your predicament, but just buy import games like you
said and don't complain.  I'm assuming you own a N64.  From your post you
seem to hate Nintendo.  Then why do you own a system made by them?

Well, Pokemon, IMO, is a pretty sound RPG in itself.  The big thing against
it that many don't like is all of the merchandise and hype that has come into
being.  I haven't played very much of it, so I can't give you much on

But i do miss pushing direction buttons like an insane maniac while people watching you go all "You're just pushing random button's, you can't control your thumbs that fast" but still you beat the game over and over again by "pushing random buttons" and thay don't. the last time i got that sort of thrill was when i played "i've got some balls" for pc and i had beaten the 'ollin' level in 5,35 seconds. A friend of mine who was preveously tremendeously proud of beating it in 9 seconds went totally bonkers when i told him: "that's f***ing impossible man, there's NO WAY you do that again " but then i repeated it right in is face. Anyways, Boudewijn i think you didn't answer me yet, so here i go again: is you from Nederland?

YOUNG RIGGER HAPPY: VIDEO GAMES AND THE ENTERTAINMENT REVOLUTION By Steven Poole (Arcade Publishing, $25.95) STEVEN POOLE was a child in the late 1970's, when video games first invaded arcades and homes, and he fondly remembers spending countless hours gunning down aliens and saving many a digital princess. During the last year, he has played hundreds of past and current video games with a more critical eye, in an effort to understand what makes these hyperkinetic amusements so captivating. The result is "Trigger Happy: Video Games and the Entertainment Revolution," which is both an eloquent rationalization for the guilty pleasures of video gaming and a persuasive argument for taking electronic games seriously as an art form worthy of critical attention. American consumers now spend more on video games than on movie tickets - with video game hardware and software sales now totaling about $8.9 billion per year, compared with about $7.3 billion in box office receipts. And video game characters - from the cartoonish Mario Brothers to the curvaceous Lara Croft - have become cultural icons. But the games themselves are often ignored by serious critics and scholars, according to Mr. Poole. "Video games today find themselves in the position that the movies and jazz occupied before World War II; popular but despised, thought to be beneath serious evaluation," he writes. Mr. Poole, a 28-year-old British journalist whose day job is reviewing books, music and video games for the British newspaper The Guardian, believes that video games get a bum rap when they are dismissed as mindless wastes of time or blamed for inspiring violence like the killings in Littleton, Colo. Sure, he concedes, the latest driving games or shoot- 'em-ups offer cheap visual thrills, but they also provide unique aesthetic experiences. And curling up with a good PlayStation 2 title might help players tame the increasingly complex technology that surrounds them. "A person who is very good at Time Crisis will probably be a good shot with a real gun," Mr. Poole writes, referring to a popular arcade game in which players shoot a plastic light gun at a video monitor. "But no convincing explanation is available as to why such an otherwise well-balanced individual would want to make the move from play to murder." Nevertheless, Mr. Poole argues that video game makers should demonstrate "a type of moral responsibility" by simulating emotional elements and depicting the consequences of violence. To him, this simply makes for better art. Extremely violent titles like Carmageddon, for instance, offer players nothing to do but drive around randomly shooting pedestrians, which can quickly become dull. Metal Gear Solid, which Mr. Poole cites as an example of a mature video game, is more interesting because it presents nuanced characters and encourages players to kill as few people as possible. "Trigger Happy" offers a solid history of four decades' worth of electronic gaming. But by comparing the video game to ancient contests like spear throwing or to the wonders of the penny arcades of the 1800's, it also struggles to situate video games within broader historical contexts of both art and play. The book also tries to analyze the various components - sound effects, characters, plot, interfaces - that make video games tick. Mr. Poole argues that the key to understanding video games is not to think of them as interactive versions of films or as attempts to simulate reality. Instead, he says, video games should offer open environments to explore, and those environments should have their own internal logic that can transcend the boundaries of real-world physics. The best video games can induce an almost Zen-like state, Mr. Poole says, "a kind of high-speed meditation, an intense absorption in which the dynamic form of successful play becomes beautiful and satisfying." "Games will never be as good as films at telling stories visually," he concludes. "They'll never be as good as books at weaving cerebral tapestries of ideas and human lives. But video games are already extremely good at providing an exhilarating blast of the animal emotions. Fear and triumph - that is why you play a video game at the moment." Mr. Poole seems to treat the research for the book as a kind of adventure game in its own right, as he enthusiastically leads readers through industry trade shows in Los Angeles and Chiba City, Japan. And to support his arguments, he gives detailed examples of favorite moments from his own gaming sessions. Mr. Poole may be preaching to the converted rather than crying in the wilderness. Many scholars have already embraced the notion that video games deserve critical attention. In the past two years, a growing number of scholars and artists have turned their attention to video games, said Dr. Lev Manovich, an associate professor of visual arts at the University of California at San Diego and author of "The Language of New Media," published earlier this year by the MIT Press. And the University of California at Irvine recently considered a proposal to make "computer games and gaming" an official undergraduate minor. (The faculty senate rejected the idea, which may be resubmitted.) Until you can get a degree in the art of playing video games, however, "Trigger Happy: Video Games and the Entertainment Revolution" offers an introductory course. At times it even reads like a college textbook, employing the techniques of postmodern theory and frequent references to Plato, Descartes and Shakespeare. Don't be surprised, Mr. Poole says, if future poets, painters, novelists, architects and - of course - game designers take their inspiration from their favorite video games.

Also, I still haven't seen anything I want for it. It's disappointing that all the magazines are currently Microsoft fans and are drooling over the specs and nothing else. It's disgusting. But journalism is another matter. If I see something that makes meet want it more than the PS2 I already have, I sell the PS2 and get an Xbox.

I remember reading somewhere that 'handles' were 'in' in Japan, so they wanted to give the machine an image that it's 'in style' or mainstream I guess. I have bigger concerns than the handle though. I *hate* they big white faceplate on the front. Can we keep it all one solid color or a majority color? The silver one's currently my favorite. I'm 25 and from Chicago, Illinois. Music?

If u mean the classic zelda overworld theme, it rules; but if u mean the music from OoT; then i think it's the worst zelda music ever.

It was a time of wonders, mysteries and great mushrooms. In time of danger people could then rely on just one hero; this hero's name was Mario. Meet Mario; Mario knows jiu-jitsu; Mario eats mushrooms. When Mario eats mushrooms he expands in size and gains the power to shoot fireballs from his hands. Mario has a friend: Ed. Ed doesn't like mushrooms. They make him go wobble wobble hoot yeehaa. Although most people like to go wobble wobble hoot yeehaa, Ed doesn't. This is the story of Ed. It was night.

Actually, I do to a certain extent.  I have a friend who has read them and
told me quite a bit about them.  He never told me anything that would really
give much away, though.

No it isn't.  Huck Finn is a great example of local color.  It describes
quite a bit about life by the Mississippi River and especially Missouri in

I gave Huck Finn as an example of classic American fiction.  I could have
named something else, but I wanted to use an example that most people would
know. My point was that while I like fantasy fiction, I believe it is very
important to read classic fiction.

The Hobbit and J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings are true classics, no less so than The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn or The Grapes of Wrath. The books are a little bit more than just a fantasy series that geeks love. Those who have read the books understand this. Of course, reading The Silmarrilion is also required, but then maybe you aren't literate enough to handle that one... :) Geoff ----- Original Message ----- Sent: Thursday, February 15, 2001 1:46 PM > In a message dated Thu, 15 Feb 2001 2:31:44 PM Eastern Standard Time, "Dave Rhodes" writes: > > > << You never read Lord of the Rings???? > > > ~~ Dave ~~ >> > > No I haven't.

I'm not saying that the Lord of the Rings books are unworthy to read, just that there are more important ones. > > Jeremy > > [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] > [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] > [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "David Hastings" Subject: [N64] What's wrong with the youth today Date: 17 Feb 2001 14:37:54 -0000 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0088_01C098EF.368893E0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Steve: no it's cool, but why do u think OoT's better than MM ?

Can't rush genius. Besides, I'm going to be in serious debt from new consoles this year. Finally paid off my PlayStation 2. Now next month I can buy more games for it (mmm Onimusha, Zone of the Enders) but this July I'll be probably putting down another $150 for Game Boy Advance and Mario 2. I hope no good Dreamcast or PS2 games come out in July. I guess it helps that Phish isn't touring this year and Dave Matthews isn't coming anywhere close, or I'd have to get another credit card. ;-) ~~ Dave ~~ "Don't live today for tomorrow like you were immortal."

Majora's Mask is a very well executed game with a quirky design that may not suit everyone. Kind of like Zelda II was for the NES. I'm assuming your conclusion is that you didn't like MM because you didn't agree with the game's design. The thing I found annoying was the time system making me want to rush through the dungeons, instead of methodically defeating the puzzles at my leisure. But the dungeons themselves are very well designed, and each succeeding dungeon grows in granduer and complexity. Escher inspired designs make a return in the later dungeons. On a side note, I found it interesting that Majora's Mask had many parallel's with Square's Chrono Cross. The tear that falls from the moon, looks exactly like the tears you find in CC. The interdimensional element mixed in with time travel, and of course, relating famous artists to the game design. One of the most interesting aspect of CC was the dream state when Serge wakes up and finds himself in a Van Gogh painting in done in Esher's style of whacked out perspectives. It's a lot more fun than navigating a maze of cookie cutter rooms patched together to form a dungeon. Anyways, I think the MM discussion has been started many times with most people agreeing to disagree on whether they liked it or not. Lets leave it at that. -- Dexter S.

I was pleasantly surprised by the tasks outside of the dungeons.  Personally,
I think it gave the game more depth than mainly focusing on dungeons.  Don't

 My thinking was always, "Why read, when I can just watch TV?". The reason
for this. Then one day friend suggest I read a series of books (The

Good.  I haven't heard of that series of books, but whatever floats your

The difference?  Books I had read in school up to that point were forced on
me...people told me these were the best books..."classics".  The problem
was that I did not enjoy those genres...I don't give a damn who says they
are supposed to be good, I did not care for them...and if these are
supposed to be the "best", why bother with anything else?  I know for a
fact that I'm not the only person that this has happened to.
I really do understand you here.  I admit that I disliked quite a few books

Great Expectations, A Separate Peace, and The Scarlet Letter are great books.

I think a lot of schools need to broaden their genres and give student more
options on what they can read in literature classes and need to include
more modern literature.  The simple fact is that all the "classics" are
only considered that because other people said they were....I never had a
say.


Good point.  I mostly agree with this.

 I'm not saying that all these books that nearly every school pushes are bad
at
all...just that, like anything for of entertainment, people have very
different tastes in genres and writing styles.  Just because some expert
said they were classics does not mean I will enjoy or get anything out of
them...quite the contrary, if someone does not like them, they may be
turned off of reading...as was what happened to me.

I didn't make my original comment to try to offend anyone.  I merely said it

Majora's Mask was more on a continuation of Ocarina of Time.  I don't think
it was meant to be a completely new game/story in itself.  Or at least that's
what I've read and also believe.

Jeremy


You're right.  Majora's Mask was even less of a stand alone game when compared to the other black sheep in the Zelda series.  Zelda II.

MM was innovative.  You have to give Steve that.  I'm up in the air about
which I liked better, but MM definately was more innovative than OoT, IMO.

Jeremy

I wrote this on a different thread, but basically  people tend to confuse execution and style.  Most bad games tend to suck at both equally.  MM  was a well executed game with a quirky style that may not please everyone.

It certainly pleased me. As far as RPGs goes, its far less of a bore than most others in the market.  Its not cookie cutter and the whole idea of this clock town that is populated by a cadre of people with their own lives to live has, In my mind, forever changed the Zelda franchise.  I don't think Miyamoto and Co. can walk out of the next Zelda with any satisfaction if they put back those old boring non-player characters that have 3 routines in the entire game and show little signs of life.

I'm sure the editors amongst them who dislike Nintendo are having a great time getting their bias accross. As for DailyRadar, I don't read them. I prefer GameSpot's straight to the point news coverage vs. DR. When covering the X-Box's apparent price increase, the editors went out of their way to point out it was the author of the NY Times article who said the console was going for $400, implying the price wasn't directly quoted from anyone involved with the X-Box project. It's amazing how they bend over backwards for that peice of news and was decidely negative in another peice of news about the Retro Studios layoffs, talking about "a lack of quality software" for GameCube because of Retro Studios laying off 20 people. a little digging would reveal to them the reorganization cut retro's project from 4 to 2, concentrating all there resources on fewer products. If anything, that would only guarantee a higher quality for those two "HIGHER priority" projects. -- Dexter S.

F-1 World Grand Prix
Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside

available for $94.99 each with $94.99 rebates for each.  Basically, you get
your game(s)
in a week or two, you wait 3-4 months for your rebates, and they earn the
interest on
their inflated prices in the meantime.  But with shipping free (in the
continental USA only),
you still make out like a bandit.

And no, I don't profit in any way from this.  I just think it is a neat
site and have ordered
from them several times in the past.

Although I have SEGA.net, I was worried about lag since (thanks to living in an old house) my PC connection speed is 26.4K and my Dreamcast connection speed is 33.6K I thought for the longest time that I'd have problems with online gaming on the Dreamcast since I experienced much lag when playing Midtown Madness (online) on my PC. But then I bought 4x4 Evolution (not the greatest game in the world) and tried racing online. To my surprise I experienced no lag at all. A few days of that and I was jonesing for something more rewarding, so I traded in Final Fantasy 9, 4x4 Evolution, and Ape Escape (I was broke and desperate at the time) for Phantasy Star Online. I play it just about every day now, and you know what? No problems with lag at all. I'm not saying lag is non-existent, it pops up from time to time, but it doesn't disrupt the game since the most of it was in the crowded lobby. During the actual battles & quests it rarely shows up at all, quite different than the herky jerky play of Midtown Madness. And this is all on a 33.6K connection, with SEGA.net helping out too. So if you get a good dial-up speed without SEGA.net, like 45K to 56K (or should I say 53K?) you shouldn't have any real problems. I just wonder if Sony or Nintendo plan on releasing a 56K modem for their systems. SEGA has proved that narrowband is not dead and with proper management it can be effective. I know they both have Broadband adapters in the works, but I don't see broadband coming my way anytime soon. Although if it did I'd subscribe right away, at least for my PC.

I have the demo for 4x4 evolution and while the licensed trucks are cool and look decent, it just wasn't something I was looking to buy. Too bad the network wasn't up and running earlier in the systems life, or games like Virtua Tennis & Powerstone would have definately gotten me online. from the cube.ign.com FAQ: Conexant will build and supply a V90 56k modem as well as a broadband adapter for Gamecube. The modem will work in conjunction with the console to allow platform owners a dial-up connection to an online network where they will presumably be able to trade data and play games. The broadband adapter should allow for users with cable or DSL service to use their high-bandwidth services if they so wish. Nintendo has not announced its Internet strategy, but sources say the strategy is very solid and not something Nintendo has glanced over. "Dolphin will combine Nintendo's world-class design and beloved franchise characters with the expansion of the world of gaming by an online network," said Genyo Takeda, Nintendo's corporate director and general manager of integrated research and development. Or, http://cube.ign.com/news/23894.html Hopefully it will be up and running at or not to long after the system is out.

It's supposed to come out this November.  At least, that's what I hear.  I
