The RetroBuds are back with a brand new DF Retro Play! Months ago, we took a look at N64 futuristic racers. This time, we take a look at a selection of N64 FPS games, a genre that served the 64 bit machine quite well, but not all first-person shooters are created equal... From Turok to South Park, this is truly a wild ride in quality and ambition and a facinating look at the N64's strengths and weaknesses.

I never owned a memory pak, so I don't know what The World is Not Enough is like after the stealth mission, but I really liked it up to that point! I think the 2nd mission would probably be more appealing, I remember enjoying that one.

Yeah, I had The World Is Not Enough back when it was new. It's certainly not a game you can blast through live on camera the way you can with GoldenEye lol. It's got some weird, cool ambitions that I think hit slightly more often than they miss. After that level you get some more traditional "shoot your way out of a city full of bad guys" levels, but yeah. It's by no means a "must play", but it does some cool stuff. The PS1 port is a mess in comparison, unfortunately.
