For all you next-gen gamers thinking you’re living it up with your Halo’s and Killzone’s, let me remind you where it really began at. Yeah, Doom may been the OG of first-person shooters to really gather a following, but Goldeneye 007 really took it there. Never was there just a single game that made an otherwise worthless gaming console worth purchasing (yeah I said it). Take yourself back to the rainy days of 1998 for a moment. Go to your homeboy’s living room. Undoubtedly there was a Playstation, as they were ubiquitous with every household at the time. But in that other corner, inside that pancaked piece of plastic, sat the silver cartidge bearing Pierce Bronson’s likeness while he posed with that PP7 with the silencer attached.

You had to have to it.

I was fortunate to be part of the perfect setup. My boy had the big screen, I had 4 controllers and we’d play the most murderous rap music we had to accent the occasion. Nore’s “Body In The Trunk” blasted from the Sony boombox while we endured Pistols in the Stack. It was lights out for all players if someone got a hold of that RCP-90 when it was Power Weapons in the Temple. Master P’s “Let My 9 Get Em” did the rest of the talking. And it was double the torture singing along with Pun, telling your opposistion “You Ain’t A Killa” while emptying your clip into their lifeless torso while the blood trickled down their portion of the screen. And we didn’t play that power meter shit. If you came to our neck our woods, prepare to submit your “License To Kill” because them one-hitter quitter shots were bout as real as it got.

Words By David D.

We all remember how it happened.

Jordan makes a lay-up. Runs back on D. Strips the ball from Malone (Malone flops but no call). MJ dribbles. Cross-over with a little push. Jumper. Bucket.
