Shadow Man is great. there is a lot of exploration so you will do a fair bit of backtracking (though not as much as in Metroid Pime). generally, it's really creepy, great story, cool weapons, gruesome enemies and some very fun times. i would recommend it to anyone...as long as they like horror!EzraPound said:I have a copy of Shadow Man around the house I intend to play once I get around to it -- i.e., once I finish Pokemon Emerald, The Secret of Monkey Island SE, Body Harvest, and Perfect Dark -- as I've heard good things. What's it like?PureChaos said:OoT of course. Shadowman and Snowboard Kids are great ones too. won't go into the full list of awesome N64 games but to keep it simple, OoT was the best (though the Master Quest was better)
Also -- though I understand why it's so acclaimed -- I could never really get into OoT. The graphics, muzak, art design, etc. were all excellent, but I just found the sheer volume of tedious and/or obscure puzzle-solving in the game broke down the momentum of it. Of course, that criticism can be extended to virtually every Zelda except the first, which is my favourite.
also, i like the puzzle solving on OoT and evey other Zelda game. it's one of the reasons i love the series so much but i can see how some can find it annoying
