N64 Best of the Best thread.

This was a really good game.

I heard the quasi-sequel/directors cut legacy of darkness was better

Haven't played either yet though

Ok, you can start

I don't even like the N64 but the Castlevania games on the system are good and underrated.

I remember that the platforming in the game really begins to shine once you get past the Castle Center. Reinhardt especially had the titanic challenge of having to beat Duel Towers, which contains zero save points and a couple "leaps of faith".
A lot of people complain about them actually but beating those levels felt like such a great accomplishment. Plus Carrie's Tower of Science and Tower of Sorcery were two incredibly great looking levels.

There are only two uncontroversial good N64 games:
Mischief Makers
F-Zero X

And F-Zero X is obsoleted by F-Zero GX, so outside /vr/ there is only one.

Sin & Punishment and Wave Race are great too.

But yes, Sega did btfo Nintendo a little bit with GX.

Ocarina of Time

what do you mean with "uncontroversial"?

Anyway there's also Goemon's Great Adventure, Bangai-O and many others. You guys really don't know that much about the N64's catalogue if you can't even come up with Goemon games.

With most systems I often can't pick an absolute favorite game, and best I could do is to give you a top 5 list that's in no particular order. With the N64, however, it's not contest.

He's an idiot who was trying to say incontrovertibly.

great 3d platformer if left to its own merits. It just doesn't live up to the Castleavnia name.

also, best racing game (that isn't FZero X) coming through

I firmly believe that F-Zero X is just goddamn perfect the way it is. GX disappointed me, it just didn't have that level of control I got from X. Plus, I FUCKING LOVE DEATH RACE. I know, boring circular track but I had many a great time beating my scores and those of my siblings (I topped their scores and times to shame). Just fucking up everybody else and figuring out better strategies for bumping fuckers off to hell in more quick and stylish or pragmatic ways was so satisfying.

F-Zero X got the violent comic book feel down. It really seemed to reward hitting other racers out of the game. GX got the futuristic racer vibe perfectly, and was more about precision driving. I love X, but GX was by far more satisfying to play in my opinion.

It was, but only in the sense that it gave you the option of more characters to play as which gave a slightly different spin on the plot. Also, you had to unlock each character, which added replay value. Either way, heavily underrated game.
