The N64 was a fucking mistake. Nothing good came out of it, and in fact gave birth to all the terrible shit that festered gaming. We can thank the N64 for:

Multiplatform focus instead of exclusives,
Japanese games being downplayed,
Mario and Mario spinoffs being the lifeblood of the console,
Multiplayer-focused games with arbitrary singleplayer modes,
Abysmal framerates,
Popularization of sports games and console shooters, and most importantly,
Western games.

Video games would be 10 times better had the N64 not existed.

Yeah PD multiplayer was even better than Goldeneye's. Same thing just slightly more polished.

As I recall there was no short period of invulnerability after being hit, so an automatic weapon would make your energy bar zip down with every bullet. Made it more urgent.

Kek, I actually stumbled upon this video on youtube a couple days ago. Anyway, the poor framerate is actually very noticeable in these old Rareware games on N64, I really never gave a fuck to be honest. PD slows down to single digit only when you play 4 players with many bots, I played it multiplayer with 2 more people and never used many bots, so the framerate was always around 15-25 (PAL version here) which was acceptable for me back then. Even nowdays I can stand stable 30fps games without sperging out like everyone on /v/, unless it's a game that actually needs the 60fps such as racing or fighting.

>>3430472
PD is Goldeneye on steroids. It's far better in every possible way. Except maybe the story which is fucking retarded and the big reveals & final levels are shit and rushed. Seriously that final level is unacceptable, and Mr. Blonde being a generic grunt disappointed me even in 2001 when I had no standards.

The frame rate only dropped low when you had 4 players and 8 bots, which to be entirely fair was quite far out for the time. Im one of 4 brothers so we played 4 player but just used 6 bots to get over this.

You can tell the OP has never played n64 or perfect dark, and therefore is 1, a faggot 2, has never lived and 3, his opinion is void.

Also ; the single player in PD is pretty good desu. Some cheats are mad hard to get and I think the story is actually pretty decent ; it's inventive, they predicted barack Obama (for real) and it's better than any COD single player mode.
Also, the area 51 aliens and other pop culture references ; indepdendce day features heavily, the film Air Force One is pastiches brilliantly, Blade Runner... I think it's brilliant. Even the MagSec4 is taken form Robocop.

What's not to love?

Also you can tell whoever posted the video is a faggot and probably a weeaboo since they're playing (genuinely for real) against Meat Sims.

I completely agree with you on that part.
One thing I loved was all the cheats you could unlock. Seriously, how many games do that now; let you unlock cheats like Big Head Mode or Paintball Mode by completing in-game challenges?
I only wish that the challenges were a little more diverse instead of them all being "complete this level in under this time."

I dont think anyone, at least my friends and I knew what framerate was, and when it slowed down like that, it was just apart of the game, thats how gaming was usually.

So did we cry or complain? Nope. We got good. We adjusted out skills to the slow down that came out of no where and still managed to get the kill. Just the way it was.

What don't you understand about frame time?

Each frame in a 30 fps game is 33.3 ms
Each frame in a 60 fps game is 16.7 ms

Having a consistent frame time is more important than frame rate numbers. It might be nice seeing a Source game run at 250 fps but if the frame time is jittering all over the place, I'd want to figuratively chuck the mouse out the window.

Nope, not at all. You don't even know what you're talking about. The weapons get colored lighting cast on them for one.

The animations are pretty damn choppy (Q64 was the same) but the game itself has a decent framerate.

the framerate? yeah ita bad but as long as you turned off hi-rez mode off and didn't use explosives, and god forbid you punch someone in the face and you get awful ghosting effects, you're fine.
Play this game all the time with bots and it was a blast, fantastic game, but gotta agree with >>3438254 ending portion is pretty piss poor.
I just play the 360 version now, way better.

Sort of, but not quite. The N64 version of Q2 seems to actually have a fairly consistent framerate, but the frame-time itself is fucked. It's bad no matter what is happening.

PS1 version drops significantly if there's more than two enemies visible at once. But it does a good job in enemy-free rooms.

If you're actually reading this, Quake 2 OpenGL vs Glide vs N64 vs PS1.

I think the most interesting thing is the color depth (like framebuffer and lighting) differences between the N64 and PS1 versions. They both did interesting things with it.

Other than that, Deus Ex Direct3D vs Glide vs PS2.

Unreal Engine in general had a good software renderer.

The problem with Deus Ex is that it put too much pressure on the CPU even in hardware acceleration mode so the performance was fucking unplayable in software. At least in Unreal it was playable.
