Crash Bandicoot 2 easily blew out of the water Mario 64 as the best 3D platformer that time...no matter the glorification of M64 by the mainstream gaming community

Ask me to tell you how to get all the colored gems and I will fail to do so (I'm significantly better at recognition than recall). Put the game in front of me to play, however?

I immediately proceed to getting everything 100%, like clockwork. It's ingrained in my fingers...

1996 Voted as ‘Best Year in Gaming’ by UK Public

Have you ever wondered what the best year in gaming was? Well wonder no more! The British public have had their say, and voted for 1996.

Limitedtimestruggle1346d ago

I have some many fond memories as a 10 year old gamer from back then! The best of times!

Dfooster1346d ago

Yeah that is a good choice. Great times

Snakeeater251346d ago

Lol Nintendo 64 … talk about a shitty year for gaming

Old McGroin1345d ago

The N64 was amazing at the time, how old are you, 12?

CobraKai1345d ago

Mario 64, Mario Kart, WaveRace. They’re prolly too young to appreciate em. My kids love the N64.

Terry_B1345d ago

No..1996 was not a good start for the N64. The system had a lousy start in comparison to the SNES, Playstation and probably even the Sega Saturn.

CobraKai1345d ago

So…. Nevermind the first time Resident Evil or Tomb Raider was released, a damn near arcade perfect port of Tekken 2, Quake, Wipeout, Crash Bandicoot, Super Mario RPG, Nights, Panzer Dragoon Zwei? It’s shitty cuz the old N64 is it?

More of a 97 person myself.
FF7, Symphony of the Night, Gran Turismo, Grand Theft Auto, Dynasty Warriors, Diablo, Fallout, Tomb Raider 2, Mega Man Legends, GoldenEye, Turok, Wing Commander Prophecy, Star Fox 64, Einhander, Tobal 2, Bushido Blade, Colony Wars, Ultima Online. Was a great year to start working at Funcoland.

You beat me to it. I loved both years, but 97 was one of my favorite years ever.

Marcello1346d ago

2013 was a good year too. Dead Space 3, The Last of Us, GTA5, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Tomb Raider reboot, Bioshock Infinite, Batman: Arkham Origins, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Grid 2 & more.

Limitedtimestruggle1345d ago

Dead Space 3? That game only deserves to be on rock-bottom lists. In my honest opinion.

Marcello1345d ago

Its is very Marmite that game but to me it was only that love story nonsense that was bad, really bad.
