Jabodie 09/02/22 2:36:37 PM #20:	It's a solid game, but it seems like it is a rough first playthrough experience for some people. Replays in this game are very fun because you can experiment with the movement and try to incorporate speed running strategies to mix things up, and it controls really nicely on N64 (3D All Stars version handles pretty poorly by comparison). --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:967748033] in Does Super...
