You got to live the dream of so many, from so long ago. Revel in it.

Reminds me I once came 2nd in a Tony Hawk compo in my local - we were on bar stools craning our necks to see the TV that normally showed the footy (big-arse Sony Trinitron on a shelf). Good times!

Once upon a time, we were just 3 kids having the time of our lives.

Saturday, 25 years later. We were 3 drunk adults who made the time to hang out. Thanks goldeneye.

Done with swim practice, scarf lunch down. Fire up the 64. No OddJob. Prox mines and rockets. Perfection.

Had to the chance to play goldeneye the other day. It’s a lot harder than I remember it being when I was a kid.

Goddamn. I need this in my life…

Thinking about how much fun we had playing Goldeneye all night (no Oddjob of course) in my early teens. Fuck I miss that so much

Got a tear in my eye now. Enjoy, friend. You’re enjoying it for so many

I beat it today! I unlocked paintball and DK mode on the way. It felt good to beat it so quickly compared to my younger self. I still had some muscle memory of some of the levels.

I was SO hyped when I saw they released it for Switch recently. Played the first level for giggles. That control scheme does not translate well...or maybe I'm just wayyy out of practice. But either way I'm gonna figure out, or buy some new controllers. Brings back so many good memories.

The xbox/switch one felt so much easier to me with the way better frame rates and actually modern twin stick shooter controls

Fuck the entire no aim until you press the bumpers to aim thing and walking with the c buttons instead of the stick...

back in the day I didn’t beat the game on medium setting. I played some stages 30 times. game is challenging in a good way. I plan to beat game on secret agent and 00 agent, with the help of save states.

The control room protecting natalia always made me nervous back in the day

Am I the only one who thinks this game has not aged well? Sure I still have love for it and fond memories, but every time I have tried to play it since I am like....uhhhhhh this controls like ass.

Why would I want to play video games in a crowded pub? Sounds like a pain in the ass and annoying

I have a very distinct memory of using Down C to slightly tip my aim up if I expected to be shooting on the move.

That, and that you had to place yourself on a corner for that pop-out shot. Peekaboo was an art form.

See I'd actually go to bars in my area if they had this. I think I've got one place that has games and they're all classic arcade. The one time I went in there, the place was dead.

Now I have the sound track of the mission's brochure in my head.

I played this the other day with some friends. I can't begin to explain how much easier it is to play with two thumbsticks.

Agree very much. Have tried to play it on Retopie setups a few times over the years. Never got too far before losing interest.

Tried it recently on Game Pass. Same thing.

Probably best to leave the memories intact.
