Current Gaming Mood: Quake II For The Nintendo 64
I decided to check out the original Nintendo 64 version of Quake II, and here’s a picture of what the gameplay looks like:
I start off in the Strogg Outpost where I encountered and killed a bunch of light guards and one shotgun guard while discovering secrets in that level on Medium difficulty.
What I do like about this version of Quake II is every time you complete a level it shows you the stats of time, kills and secrets along with the given password:
Anyways, first level is finished and I’m going to the next level which is the Central Complex. But that’ll have to wait because I still need to reconfigure the funky controls the next time I come back to playing this game.
More Fun With Mario Golf 64
I came back to playing some Mario Golf for the Nintendo 64 this evening, and I decided to torture myself by unlocking new characters. Up first is Luigi, and we started off in the Toad Highlands. So far, I have won the first three holes against Luigi. Yippee!
That’s three medals down, and seven more to go. Time to celebrate by taking a good break! 🙂
Playing around a bit of Namco Museum 64
I was checking out Namco Museum 64 on Der Project 64 emulator. It’s a Nintendo 64 game where you can play 6 arcade games starting with Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaxian, Galaga, Dig Dug and Pole Position.
The reason why I snagged that to add to my collection of N64 games is because I remember playing Namco Museum Volumes 1 and 3 on the original Playstation back in the old days. They’re a lot of fun! 😀
Current Gaming Mood: Mario Golf 64
Last night I decided to install Project 64 just to test out some Nintendo 64 games, starting with Mario Golf 64. In this game, you can add all four golfers that were originally from the Game Boy Color version just by simply using the Transfer Pak and the Mario Golf GBC game paks to transfer them over, but it requires at least two game packs to transfer all 4 characters in the game:
Here’s a screenshot of what the gameplay looks like:
Your selected character is outside the golf course, and your objective is to swing the golf ball all the way to the hole in order to score points whether it’s a Bogey, Birdie, Eagle or a Hole-in-One if you’re extremely lucky.
I’d say this game is really fun to play but difficult to master and great for practice. The graphics in this game looked awesome for back in the day, and what I like about this game is that there are different modes to choose from; like Character Get, Ring Shots, Birdie Shots, etc. 🙂
The next games that I plan on playing are Mario Kart 64 and Super Mario 64.
