I may start Rocket Robot on Wheels here tonight or at least sometime this week. Always wanted to play that game! Hope it's as awesome as it seemed in Nintendo Power.

I took your advice but I couldn't beat it. Powerpuff's controls are soooo much worse compared to Tom and Jerry. The AI just spams punches and you get stuck getting pounded on without being able to get away. What a pain, and I was playing on easy.

I beat Paper Mario about a week ago. I beat it before I knew about this thread. I don't have a picture of the ending but if necessary I could show the a late save point.

The game was really good and for the most part got better as the game progressed.  I don't think the rpg aspect was as good as Super Mario RPG but I really like the more complex (but still a bit too easy) puzzle solving aspects of the game.

It's a gem of a game. I did it last year but someone had already gotten to it so I didn't get the point.

@leatherrebel5150
That's a bit of a surprise. It was the same developer, but maybe BAM Entertainment just wanted the game rushed out.

@cron1616
Point added. Nice.

My girlfriend and I beat Monopoly tonight. That's the second Monopoly game I knocked out for the beat threads this year.

I also finally started Rocket Robot tonight, very pleased with it so far! You're definitely right cheaterdragon, it really seems like a gem. The first world alone is showing a ton of personality. I may even go for 100% if it isn't too hard to achieve.

Unique describes Rocket Robot on Wheels very well. All the levels are very creative, I especially liked the food themed level, it's one of the later ones.  If you get stuck then they have hints for each ticket in the pause screen. 100% is very do-able.

Pokemon Puzzle League


Pretty fun game with very addicting game play. You have to play on hard to get the credits to roll. Interestingly, you battle an Elite Four at the end, but it's more like an Elite Three, as you battle Ritchie (from the anime), Lorelei, Bruno, and then Gary, the League Champion. (The game tries to make it a secret that he is the league champion, but you know.) It's really unforgiving towards the end. I nearly threw my controller at the screen trying to beat Lorelei, and then I finally beat her by dumb luck. If you haven't played it before, check it out.

Thanks for writing. I apologize for the delay in responding to your email during this busy time of year.
In regard to your email, it is great to hear that you have found a copy of Perfect Dark for the Nintendo 64. Perfect dark was a first person shooter game that was released in May of 2000. I personally enjoyed this game a lot during my mid-teen years since it allows for up to four players to play at one time. All the Perfect Dark cartridges were black.

I hope this information is what you are looking for.

Also, I'm still working on Perfect Dark. Currently stuck on Crash Site: Confrontation. It's so much harder than I remember for some reason...

It's been decided that you have to beat all the levels (to include the bonus levels) to beat the game, and that requires beating the game on Perfect Agent. Therefore, I'm just grinding through on PA only. The last time I played PD, I beat all the levels on Perfect Agent and unlocked all the cheats in one go and it took like 5 hours or so (based on the in game tracker.) I've just lost it, apparently. I will succeed, though. And the game is definitely awesome.

NFL Blitz 2001



Couldn't snap a pic of my super bowl score fast enough this time. It was epic. I scored on a last second hail mary, but I was already up by three, so I got to win by nine instead. A classic game of Blitz!

I finished all the main levels in Perfect Dark on Prefect Agent. I suppose I could complete the bonus levels on Agent and call it a day. My pride won't let me do that do that, though. The bonus levels are really hard on PA, but I suppose I can knock them out soon.

Perfect Dark is done.



I got tired of trying to beat Maian SOS on PA, so I finally said screw it and beat it on SA just so it would be done.

I'll give you the point now. Yeah I've been doing a lot of exciting projects lately and haven't finished anything. I recently tried GoldenEye X which was fucking amazing though.

^You talking about the last level, Skedar Ruins? I don't find that level too difficult. The one before it, though, attack ship, I think it's one of the hardest in the game.

I've been busy with work and family life lately, but hope to get more active again in this thread soon. I did just finish NHL breakaway 98 tonight though. I was hoping that it would be as fun as blades of steel 99 was. But it wasn't. It was terrible. In my opinion anyway. I simulated a 25 game season, but made sure to actually play the 7 game series. I wish I could say nice things about this game, but I just couldn't find much to like about it. Happy to say that its done and off the list though.

Point added, and you probably won't be happy with the sequel NHL Breakaway 99 as it's a complete re-hash. I know people always say sports games are re-hashes and they are more or less correct, but NHL Brekaway 99 is a no effort game. They updated the players, changed the goalie creases, and altered the menus slightly. Otherwise it's complete copy and paste.

Thanks for the heads up. With that being the case, I will probably leave that one for someone else to tackle lol

Yes, that would do. You can set the number of games though as most sports seasons are very long.

Just finished spiderman. I remember playing this as a kid on the ps1. I loved it back then, but just liked it this time around. The versions dont seem that different, most notable is the difference of cut scenes in the ps1 version vs the comic book style pics of the n64 version. Maybe the controls difference of ps1 vs n64 made the difference? Not sure. Either way, it was enjoyable enough, and its done for another year.
