Date: April 14th, 2026 12:27 PM Author: cowgod Also a thought occurred to me recently
In 1999 it was like holy shit my life/town/city suck, imagine living in a city with good phenotypes. Like the PLACE mattered
In [current year] it’s like who gives a fuck, why would I care, I have Games. I have a Trailer. If I want to get laid I can get pussy through the Internet or something idk. Like yeah a Rave with only white people might be cool but that’s not happening. Every club is URM and every bar is just One Clique or something |

they fell out of favor generally because of online. 4 player goldeneye on one screen kinda sucks. it was only big because of few other viable options |

Date: April 14th, 2026 12:11 PM Author: nude astronaut it was notably laggy because the game had to render the game world 4 times at once. goldeneye and perfect dark were laggy at the best of times in single player but multiplayer was like a slideshow if you got some grenade explosions going.

Date: April 14th, 2026 1:11 PM Author: Woah Cr friend! Yeah I remember one christmas in the 2000s we hooked up the n64 to play goldeneye multiplayer again and we were like wow this fucking sucks, it was unplayable (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5856948&forum_id=2...id.#49816874) |

Date: April 14th, 2026 12:13 PM Author: cowgod This was actually fun iirc. Like just seeing your irl friend trying to Slap as Oddjob who was made a midget bc the actor is 5’8 plus he’s azn and it was the 90s. It’s not about the gameplay it’s about Killing your friends. I enjoyed when games bled into irl such as when re-enacting Fatalities. Pretending to show my buddy his beating heart as he Dies. A triumph. Only western games got re enacted. No one tried to do zangief’s spinning pile driver irl.
As for goldeneye, it got off easy with a T rating. And it couldn’t be Modded. So when Columbine happened, no one blamed Rare. Its contribution to the undoing of the millennial generation came in the segue it provided to Xbox, which was the true successor to the western N64 |

Date: April 14th, 2026 1:39 PM Author: OYT and the Indie Reprieve ( ) that T rating was rather odd. you could go all license to kill on "innocent" scientists in the Facility and riddle their bodies with bloody holes.

Date: April 14th, 2026 2:20 PM Author: cowgod There are people who will argue with me about this. I think the rating itself colors people’s perceptions. Same people will insist that Halo needed an M-rating because you see alien monsters DECAPITATED. Yeah ok, I made Ganon Bleed with an E rating. Microsoft WANTED an M rating. Nintendo WANTED a T rating. Nintendo Published goldeneye and used their soft power to get a T rating
Jet Force Gemini, cartoon space game: T rating Perfect Dark, M
Both published by Rare. No soft power. |
