10 Video Games 90s Kids Never Forgot
2. GoldenEye 007
This Nintendo 64 classic FPS was a phenomena in the late 90's and championed everything brilliant about split screen multiplayer. On one side it was an entertaining and well built shooter with a campaign that followed closely the movie of the same name and on the other one of the best party shooters in history.
In the campaign you play Bond as he counters a terrorist plot to use a electromagnetic satellite to turn the world dark. Its a standard Bond story with the added plus of giving you the chance to kill Sean Bean yourself for once.
The multiplayer was where all players made most of their memories of the game. Particularly in the split screen mode with three friends where great maps and exciting weapons made for some the most engaging shoot outs available at the time... and ever.
The simple joy of it was largely evident in gameplay derived from four of you running around in well designed and interesting levels brutally killing each other for bragging rights all while sat on the same couch.
