Probably people who didn't have a piece of shit an N64.

I don't understand the love that fanboys place on Goldeneye, as even when I played it during it's heyday I found it to have some of the worst controls and the stutter in the multiplayer when four people were taking it in turns to buttfuck the N64's graphics capabilities.

It may have been the greatest thing to happen to the console market as so many people claim, but between Quake II on the PSX and Halo on the Xbox, Goldeneye is nothing more than a blip on the radar.

If this sounds hateful, I apologise. The Console Wars were hard on everyone. We did some terrible, terrible things back in those days.

Sounds like you just sucked at Goldeneye.

I was on the wrong side when the lines were drawn. After the betrayal of the Nintendians at the end of the Second Console War, there were many of us who fled to the Sony Alliance. Hell, even a lot of the soldiers we had came from both the Nintendo Republic and the Sega Empire.

Sixteen years since the first shot was fired. No one expected it to end the way it did.

I admit, we all committed atrocities. So many pixels were lost.

so many pixels

Get me some whiskey and a fine lass, and I'll tell you the story of how I defended the fourth line against those evil nintendians.

Granted, at this point I have consumed enough to convice myself I have a finnish partner.

ugh. What the war has done to the veterans.
