I am thinking the same thing as 8-BitTerror. Its like they tried to base a whole game off of one innovative Star-Fox stage. But I think Star-Fox 64 came out later than this title? So..?

What's with this Bravo ad? Not appropriate at all for this audience, lol.

8BitTerror 11 pts

Doesn't this look familiar? (Star Fox 64 theme starts playing) say, the level with the mothership where you have to destroy the four ports on the bottom?

Nemmexrammstein818 Using the Internet was one thing back then. Finding the info you needed was a whole other story.

The gameplay of Starfox 64 on N64 is rather better than this game imo. If you never played this game, go ahead and download it on the internet and feel free to play it. Also the graphic looks pretty much identical at some points... AND it's playable.

If there's anything that has NOT aged well, its the 3d polygon graphics from the mid-late 90s. This includes the N64, the PS1, and the Saturn. I mean, just look at this shit. It looks TERRIBLE. I can't believe that we used to think this shit was "cutting edge".

Compare that to 8bit or 16bit sprite based graphics on the NES/SNES/Genesis. It's old looking, yes, but there's something that works about it. They don't have the same nausea inducing effect as the crappy early 3d era graphics do.

This game looked horrible back then. Look at a Star Wars game, Crash or the Lost World for the PSX then look at this. I saw this at Walmart when it was new and was like "hell no I ain't buyin' that shit!"

@NES_FTW Ever heard of Megaman 9? :3

Very interesting. I think the nerd lives not too far from Philadelphia. On episode 24 spiderman he drinks a local brew (there's a comment on that vid about it), and in this when he throws the game and circles the earth the last city it stops by is Philly. On wikipedia under location it said Newark, NJ and then it says Philadelphia for current but it doesn't cite anything. Anyway it would be awesome to know that James lives close to me =)

Not only does he have to stand up for shitty games but now he must stand for a shitty stalker which also likes to dump shit in peoples mailboxes. Enough of this shittines!

Ah! See that other comment?!! That is my old one. Your reading my new one!! Gratz!!! ¤,o'

Hmm. Cute video... yep! Yessir.

The movie was actually really good

In my opinion, classic consoles end after the DreamCast. Eventually the PS2. I don't consider a console classic when it's still on the market.

"Why is it so slow?! Why is it so ASS!?"

Its true James, the classics of gaming ended at SNES. Although there were some really good ones for N64, but Gaystation was a fat cock smothered in Asbestos.

Hahaha, this brings me back. But I actually liked the movie when I saw it in theatres! It's crazy how much younger you look 4 years ago. You look like a little kid haha. You really do seem angry in the video, which is funny. It's not about the swearing but just the emotions you bring in this video. Shouting at the camera, staring it down, i love it. Throwing the disc at the end was a great effect as well!

making me sick!!!! hahahah i love this man... always makes me laugh..

This game, make top gun look like a piece of art work.

i remember when we rented it from the video store. at first it didn't work. my dad had to sit there for 10 minutes rubbing the stupid thing with a paper towel. after getting it to work, it wasn't worth it. we were confused on what to do. nothing seemed to work. we never passed the first level and we returned it the same night we rented it for another game.

Independence Day was an alright movie. So was Top Gun. Sure they were stupid but they had great set pieces.

I remember this crap... I don't want to but I do!

There were WAY better games for the PS, this was not one of them.

I actually like ID4, but I agree that the movie based game is an average and confusing game.

This game was a piece of dog shit!!!

You want to see a ps1 game that REALLY sucks shitl? Then try out resident evil survivor. I mean, you can't even fucking look up or down! you can aim in any direction, since it's first person, but WTF!? the guns have an AAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS rate of fire, it takes like 6 seconds in between in each shot, you can't fucking strafe either, the grammar and the language all are just plain fucking horrible so you can never understand what the subtitles are supposed to mean. , And so is this disgrace to the name of resident evil. I hate that game. it makes me want to kill myself. like it's the equivalent of shit taking a shit. it's like a nasty practical joke you play on your friends " you want to play agame? oh, here you go, you fucker." I have had more fun playing with dog turds, it's the grand motherload of shit, i would rather play fucking dig dug or pacman, cause at least those don't suck! Man It fucking sucks, it fucking blows it's a piece of shit! Fuck that game fuck it to hell fuck to damn nation of mankind! Leave the fucking thing alone! and James, I have to see you review this game. Please!?

hahahahha Eat at Joe's fuckin good homage to bugs bunny

i like the ps1 but that game is damn ass

Fuck you!!! independence day movie is awsome !!!

@fgv112: u forgot Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, the best skateboarding game ever.

Yeah,thats some real shit.I hate those games where you just do nothin but shoot stuff and theres no music,it just wastes my fuckin time,its not fun,it makes me sick.I am a HUGE,REALLY BIG fan of the ps1 and i've played like 10 of these and yes,this is probably the worst.By the way,heres two AWESOME games for the ps1,Croc - legend of gobbos,spyro - year of the dragon,and peak performance.They're great games,you should check um out but peak performance is pretty rare.Awesome review by the way>

avoid shitty games huh? well thats good to know but all the games i play IS NEW ONES AND I DONT KNOW WHAT GAMES R SHITTY BEFORE ITS TO LATE GOD DAMMIT JAMES!

wow i got angry, on james rolfe!

i think the world is getting invaded somewhere (lol game joke)

great review James!
i totally agree with you, the classic game consoles did end with SNES. All of the other game consoles after that tried to make their games in 3D and ended out looking out like shit because they were more focused on graphics than gameplay or MUSIC,(i am refering to Castlevania on nintendo 64)

GAMES SHOULD GO BACK TO BEING 8-BIT

Well the lack of a graphic accelerator cards in both ps1 and saturn didn't make things any better. The 3d-graphics looked awful in it's early heydays. In comparion the N64 graphics did have the decency to atleast look good.
