Quake 2 multiplayer was great fun. Not as fleshed out as Bond or Perfect dark, but it was very fast paced and well balanced. Winback had a great 2-player versus mode too. There wasn't a lot in it, maybe 2 or 4 levels but it played really well. Killer Instinct Gold was one of my favorites for quite some time. Never got around to Blast Corps.

It's way better. 1080 is fine, it's a pretty good snowboarding racing game that went for a realistic look and succeeded for its time. But Snowboard Kids is a snowboarding racing game with kart racer mechanics and the type of pointy, cartoony art style that thrived in early 3D polygonal games. It's fantastic.

My friends and I grew up on snowboard kids. Mario Kart was severely lacking in the multiplayer department. And so was Diddy Kong Racing. If I recall correctly they ditched the music in order to get it to run at a stable framerate in multiplayer mode. None of that in Snowboard Kids. The single player sucked (imho), it was bland shit. But the multiplayer was were snowboard kids really got to shine. It's not rated enough because most of you fags don't have friends to play with.

I have to hand it to nintendo: four player splitscreen is a great way to burn some hours with your friends. I'm glad they stick by that.
Pokeman Stadium multiplayer was great too. Star Fox wasn't that good, but we spent many hours on it, talking smack and One-upping each other. Proximity mines were always good for a hoot too.

This game was so full of depth for the time, and no one knew how to play it. There were speed caps tied to the difficulty setting, so on expert mode it was blazing fast if played properly - using Z-boosts/quick starts/boost cancels/boosting off of slopes/etc. Difficult, but so rewarding.

It's also overrated because it may do some very interesting things for the time but the execution is absolutely awful in hindsight. The N64 simply could not handle what they were trying to do and the game suffers miserably as a result. They were making a game too advanced for the gen it was in.

Excellent game that was given to me for christmas one year by a good family friend. Jumping in and out of vehicles was actually more novel than some people think for the time.

Start experimenting with the moveset more, then. By the mid-game you should be doing suplex moves.
I agree the non-battling parts of the game aren't too interesting, though, although it has some cool moments, like the showdown with that giant beast.
