Crappy early n64 title

A glorified early n64 tech demo with horrible controls and empty, boring levels. Exactly the kind of game better left forgotten. Even games like Rogue Squadron and Dark Forces II : Jedi Knight released the following years later vastly outclasses it.

Greatest old-school game ever

This game defined my childhood. I've always said it should come to GoG (Steam release is probably now imminent) and here it is! Trust me - you need to experience this game. It had incredible graphics for it's time and was a launch title for the N64. The snow-speeder level was unlike anything we had ever seen before with only the SNES to compare to. Newer gamers might not get it but this is definitely a walk down nostalgia lane.
