TalkRadar 64 – Get N or get out

All about the N64! Awful audio, forgotten games and the best non-Mario and Zelda options for the system

Words: Brett Elston on August 14, 2009





Top 7… sexy text adventures – Chestnut hair, tousled by the wind, frames the tanned oval of his face.

Metroid Prime Trilogy – Brett scored the first review of three old games! Whatta scoop!


Gaming’s most incestuous soundtracks – Why yes, Mega Man 7 DOES have music from Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins, glad you asked.

The most accurate/inaccurate comic book games – Chris throws down the comic book trivia gauntlet, gets his own questions wrong

Above: Hulk 181, and possibly 180 if you’re hardcore, is Wolvie’s first appearance, not 183 as Chris claims 

Mortal Kombat kontest winners – Some of you won! The rest of you LOST!

Moses had an N64, probably – Because the N64 is really old. Brett wanted to insert the exact date it was released, but it turns out nobody cares when things happened



Question of the Week – What’s your favorite N64 game of all time and why? NO MARIO 64 OR OCARINA!

 

Above: A kung-fu taco truck parks its ass across THREE handicapped spaces. They just dun curr 

Above: Henry buzzing in for the comic trivia, probably about to correct Chris 

Above: Someone asked Mikel to elaborate on the finer points of Jaws Unleashed, causing a four-day explanation that made him miss the podcast 

Above: A feature we can’t yet discuss left us with piles of fancifully colored liquor 

Above: Srsly, it was a very vibrant set of booze 

 

Above: Graboids makes a fine example of Alf Pacino, the latest character for us to invent and run into the ground in two episodes 

Above: The voyeuristic power of Google Maps let Mechamorbo track down precisely where Tyler Wilde lost his delicious veggie burger 

Above: Aeshir finally assembles Brattle-Bot, though with two left arms 

Above: You might want to ask Bobbety exactly what this means 

Above: The Web Swinger crams several Barratt references into one image 

Above: Why is farting on a pregnant woman worth photoshopping? Listen to T-Dar 63 for the answer to TheMonarch’s efforts

    My favorite N64 game is Turok, with a close runner up going to "Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire". I loved the rumble on Goldeneye too. My fave was the SMG from the train level.

    The games that I couldn't get enough of for the N64 was Doom, Donkey Kong 64, Zelda: The ocarina of time, Turok series, and Golden Eye 007 which hands down was so fun and I dominated competition with the RCP90 BIACH!!!!!

    Out-fucking-standing! One small thing, though. Last week, in Episode 63, Chris incorrectly stated that The Lion King is the highest grossing movie of all time. That honor actually belongs to Titanic.

    Uniracers was one of my favorite SNES games, with an AWESOME soundtrack. "Not cool enough" was also displayed when trying to enter your name as "Sega" or "Sonic" - and I'm sure there's others. Nintendo was really looking out for us...

    I love this podcast, It makes me laugh,
    the last time I listened, I almost Crapped.
    Some say its terrible, with its stupid jokes,
    but for them I have a pole they should smoke.
    When I'm at home, Playing game after game,
    I think about Talkradar, Every night and Every Day.
    From the Title to the Content, Keep it all the Same,
    Please dont change it Norwegian King of Names!

    I love you Gamesradar!!!
