Army Men: Air Combat NA release: 18th Julu 2000 PAL release: N/A NA release: N/A Developer: The 3DO Company Publisher: The 3DO Company N64 Magazine Score: 83% The Army Men games like to use different genres – starting with an RTS, then delving into 3rd person shooters, and now a vehicle shooter – but the green plastic style, lumped with the “living in a giant’s world” concept, keeps the games feeling like they belong together. Air Combat takes on the Desert Strike style of game, but keeps things simple. But that simplicity is what makes Air Combat a lot of fun. Take the winch as an example: in Desert Strike, you have to carefully line it up to pick up objects. Here, you just lower the winch and it grabs onto anything, allowing you to move objects around with ease. The autoaim is also incredibly generous, although if you don’t pay enough attention, you may find yourself blowing up your own men. Throughout the game you’ll steal some great looking weapons from the Tan Army – a tank, a UFO, a bear that shoots lasers out of his eyes… Sadly, you don’t get to use any of these (not even the UFO, which would work in a similar way to a helicopter), and it’s something that could have helped add a bit more variety into the game. Even so, it’s still a good laugh. Fun Remake or remaster? A remastered Army Men collection would be great. Official ways to get the game. There’s no official way to get Army Men: Air Combat. -
The first version of the PC port of Star Fox 64 is out (it currently does not support Lylat Wars). So far, it pretty much has the game running authentically with a few minor graphical upgrades: higher resolution, widescreen, not using LOD models, keeping characters heads in their ship during gameplay and things like that. It feels pretty good. It also has various cheats (you can enable expert mode form the word go if you want), a level select and some bug fixes (although you can choose not to use them if you prefer). Hopefully over time they'll be optional stuff such as adjusting fog/draw distance, texture packs, higher quality audio (the original recordings were recovered at some point, there's a romhack for the 3DS version that uses them), but definitely a good start.

I was going to spend 2025 playing GameCube games (and if I somehow make it though those, do Zelda games), but this Timmy situation is too concerning.
