      IMO the two n64 shooters should be in the top 4, but the list is okay otherwise.

        Over the years I've come to realize I'm of the contrary opinion that Perfect Dark on N64 was not a good game. While GoldenEye suffered from occasional slowdown, some of it egregious, Perfect Dark was unplayable most of the time, even with the RAM pak inserted. That game was ahead of its time and the hardware simply couldn't carry the load. It didn't come into its own until the remaster on Xbox 360, and by then shooters had moved on.

          You just had to watch out for explosions and smoke. No way I would tolerate those frame rates today though.

      I don't know what you're talking about with the modern KI; it was excellent. But it also wasn't Rare.

      So... you guys put a game on your Top 10 list -- of all time -- that's technically not even out yet? I mean, I know it's playable, but... that may be rushing it.
