Im gonna be completely honest:

 

Playing Pokemon Red. I remember spending most of the night trying to level up my Pidgeotto til it evolved (and boy was it glorious when it did).

 

I pretty much did the same thing, but with Fifa 2000. I started at around noon, and pretty much played it until...11 o'clock. By then, I stopped playing and walked with my family to the big bridge close to our house to watch the fireworks, with lots of other peoples.

 

I don't exactly know why, but I was completely addicted to that game.

I was in a cottage in a very snowy Inverness with my mum, dad, 2 younger brothers, my best friends and their families. We spent a week playing Mario Golf 64, Jet Force Gemini and going sledging. £100 worth of fireworks for the millenium and about 300 sheep for company. One of the best holidays I ever had, it was amazing.

Fifa 2000 was classic ;)

Ine got me the Doovde Boxset for Christmas. So, byebye tape versions, to the cupboard you go. We watched the first one (her first time) a few days ago. Quite a good New Year's Film to watch, as you say.

 

You're going to eat lightning and crap thunderrrr!

I was forced to go to my mum's friend's adult party, where the only other kids were these two brats who were about 5 years younger than me who seemed perfectly content playing Duke Nukem all night just to see pixellated strippers jiggle their tits.

 

Then we conga'd in the street, and all the neighbours joined in!

Playing Donkey Kong 64

 

How could I forget that this abomination came out ten Christmases ago. :woops: I would have been playing it too and wondering just how they went from the silky, mesmerising platforming of DKC 3 to... clunky, overcomplicated DK 64. (The DK Rap is still a guilty pleasure of mine though!)

We had a big party at our house, lots of my parents friends but my brother and I also had a few of our friends too. Fireworks, silly dancing, the cereal box game. Massive millennium cake, it was lavish. I'm pretty sure I was in love with my best friends brother, a ginger guy called Harry. It was good, anyway.

I was ten years old and I went to my upstair-neighbour's party (I lived in a maisonette at the time) which was actually alright surprisingly. Me and my friends nicked some beer and started to drink it and no-one was none the wiser. I remember I started dating my mate's sister who kissed and asked me out at midnight and she was like 3 or 4 years older than I was and we managed to keep it secret until February...surprisingly my mate was alright about it (overprotective brother) but our mothers weren't, haha. We broke up the following week, it was fun while it lasted though :p

I was 12, I have no idea what I was doing. I think I was sleeping, I refused to believe that the start of the 2000's would bring an end to the doom and depression that inflicted our every day lives. Yes, I was a cynical child :heh: I was however right though.

I was 9 in 1999, do you feel old raining? :p

 

Given I barely recall much between 4-11ish I probably was doing nothing but sleeping!

 

Respect your elders you young whippersnapper! Yes, I was also 13 back in 1999. God I feel old!

 

As for what I was doing right now, I can't remember tbh. I was still at bloody school! Bloody hell, I feel even older now... :/

It probably makes me a little biased that I played DK64 when it was out.

 

I got DK 64 when it came out too and I'm not biased... I WANT to be biased due to how great the DKC games were before it, but DK 64 is just so bad. :(

 

I only played the DKC games when they were old and wrinkly.

 

I take it then you're yet to play any of the DKC games? :grin:

I was 21 (older than most if you are now!) and at a lame house party that some friends took me to.

Single but surrounded by girls that were far too young. At midnight three close friends and I walked down a little lane and saw some fireworks. Overall ... lame.
