gamespot - how wrong could you be?

Well! i just had to jump in and write this! a 6.4? are they completely mad?!
i had this, when it original came out. true it may be hard for some to move back a couple of generations now you're used to better graphics and better frame rates.
But from the moment i first played this title, i absolutely loved it. and to this day, none of the other installments came close! apart from the DS version.
the controls are tight, the levels are well designed and the soundtrack was fantastic for its time, classic nintendo.

Gamespot said "you'd get bored within a week" but i remember the fan base this title had! it's kept me interested right up to the present day.

I'm pretty sure i might start boycotting gamespot and moving to IGN who actually appreciate good titles.

Once i finally completed everything from this game, the multiplyer kept me interested way after, playing the deathmatch with 4 friends kept my n64 out and living way after the gamecube came out.

(if like me, you really enjoyed this game, check out "diddy kong racing" a great little gem from rareware - who were once the greatest developers of all time! (until Microsoft bought them out)
