Space Station Silicon Valley - N64 Game (Retro Fam)

As soon as Spacestation: Silicon Valley was inserted in my Nintendo 64, I really had no idea what to expect. I had read some articles in the past on the game in my favorite magazine, N64, and it seem to be shaping up to be a good game. However, I never thought that SSV would be one of the best games I had ever played. Well, SSV is just that: one of the most original, twisted, challenging, and addictive games available on the market today. Some, if not all gamers, have never even heard of the game. Well, to start, let me give a brief background on how the game begins, and how it is played. The game starts off with an introduction scene, in which a news station reports that SSV, a huge floating space colony, is still missing in space (making it 1000 years since it vanished). They have sent out various crews to find Spacestation, but have come up empty handed. Here, is where Evo (you), a robot, and Dan, the companion, come into play. They are a bunch of space freaks, who happen to accidentally crash land in SSV after arguing about what music to listen to. The landing breaks Evo into pieces, which float off into space; except for one key piece: the piece that is used to posses other robotic animals. This is one of the most created aspects of SSV, and there are more than forty different animals you can take control of. As you may have guessed, each animal has its own abilities, ranging from the classic water spray the elephant has, to the exploding brown mines the ra.

One of my favorite games from my childhood. I'm glad I've repurchased this and play it all the time on my N64.
