As a guy who rented this from a store and kept it way past it's due date, *the physics on this game were not only realistic, but fucking incredible at the same time.*

This game is up there with some of the best platformers on the console.

Holy crap, the animations in this game are amazing. Especially during the cutscenes, they looked soooo smooth.

Truly amazing game. The correlation between the physics of the game and the controller is incredible. I discovered this game thanks to this channel, for which I will be eternally grateful.

This is one of those games where I can’t describe the feeling I got while playing it. But I definitely was in awe of it when I rented it long ago. It had a laid back quality to it. I played around with the rollercoaster way too much and never got around to beating it.

It feels like I haven’t played this game in like 10 years, I would be so happy if it got a remaster on the switch

I truly don't understand how my child mind could get through over half of this game without help or tutorials. One of my all times on n64 easily. I was so sucked up into the world and puzzles this game had as a child. What's crazy is I almost forgot about this game until I saw the video pop up. I must have been really good at trial and error because I remember getting to at least the point where you get a motorcycle with wings in the lava looking area then eventually moved on. But what great memories.

Sly is amazing but rocket was what blew me away for sucker punch. Would love to see this game get a facelift on switch.

How can you have the heart to negatively criticize the music?! It is exceptionally good! The greatest music on the platform outside of Nintendo’s own titles. Also it’s very technically advanced with interactive mixing of the tracks and small ditties inter pierced.

I have to say, I never really thought about a world where Sucker Punch stayed on with Nintendo. A world where Sly and Rocket were in Smash is honestly so enticing I'm kind of anguishing over what we don't have, haha. I think Sucker Punch's take on a Metroid game could have been really interesting, honestly. A lot of the design elements from Rocket, Sly, and Infamous could translate well to that franchise.

Thank you Glenn. This game is awesome! I play using a Everdrive 64. Am a gamer before I'm a collector. So budget gaming is my thing. Am also getting a Ultra HDMI for my N64 to play in HD.

Another original and fun game that never got the attention it deserved and if demand and time persists, we could see a re-master on the Nintendo Switch. Here's hoping for the best and great video!!

I haven't played a single Suckerpunch game I didn't enjoy, and I especially love this one. I reckon they could've made an incredible Mach-Rider reboot for Nintendo if inFamous is anything to go by.

I remember renting this one as a kid and really enjoying it. I picked it up as an adult when I found out it was made by Sucker Punch and I still feel it holds up. As for Sucker Punch themselves, they are probably my favorite second party developer behind Rareware. I love just about every game they've made.....except for Second Son. I love the Infamous series, I love Sly Cooper but if I had to pick my favorite in their line up, it would have to be Sly 2: Band of Thieves.

Hey hello, are you playing from the actual original cartridge via ultra hdmi mod? What resolution is your streamer output. It looks amazing.

Will you be doing a live stream about this game? This is actually one of the Nintendo 64 games I've always wanted to play, aside frok Mario Tennis 64. I'm not a Sly Cooper fan but I do hang around with the Sly Cooper community sometimes due to them being fans of other platforming games besides the Sly Cooper series. Heck, I even befriended a Sly Cooper cosplayer and her mum (who cosplayed as Big Al from the Ratchet & Clank series) at MCM Comic Con Manchester 2016. I believe the Sly Cooper cosplayer will be cosplaying as Kiera from the Jak And Daxter series next year. Hopefully, I'll see her again in person at MCM Comic Con Manchester 2018. I've only played a demo of Sly Cooper 2, it comes with Ratchet & Clank 3 on the PlayStation 2. Whether Sucker Punch jumped ship to Sony or not, I wouldn't have it any other way.

I have never even heard of this one, but by god those physics look amazing. Is it weird that I have so much respect for the Sly Cooper series even though I've never had the hardware to play them?

The animations on the robot are insanely smooth and blend very well. What kind of wizardry did these dudes pull off?

This game clearly needs a sequel.

I enjoyed this more than Banjo Kazooie until level 3 or 4 where I began to feel cold towards the game. Like you said in the video, if they had designed the main character better, and given him any emotion at all, the game may have been easier to digest.
