Very good

If my previous two reviews have said anything, it's that above all else I love games that end up being overlooked by the general gaming audience yet still pack lots of fun. This is why I was very eager to make this review of Sin & Punishment, one of my favorite shooter ANYTHING...read full review

This looks pretty cool.

This is the Mr T of Nintendo 64 games, despite the fact that one of the main girl characters is voiced by a boy.

It's actually a male character.

I just downloaded this last night. I like the concept (reminds me of neogeo's nam1975 which is actually much more fun than this game) and the graphics were good for N64 but the controls are not as tight as they could be in my opinion. Also, the girl needs to stop taking those "supplements" or not talk while I'm playing because it's very distracting.

What type of game is this? I'm getting some points today, and I'm trying to thing of what other game I could get.

What is this game about anyways?

I completed this game and it rocks! The storyline, and the gameplay. No longer will I look at rail shooters having limited gameplay options, because Treasure managed to blow this wide.

One question, though: why didn't Nintendo translate the subtitles? They say it's for "nostalgia", but guys, seriously, no one buys an imported game because "It has it's original japanese text!" People buy imports because they had too much time on their hands with Rosetta's Stone, and they now understand what the text means. That's it. Nintendo, please realease an update for this game for english subtitles. I barely understand what's going on because of the poor quality of the voices.

This goes up with smash bros, paper mario and mario 64 as one of the best 64 games ever.

This game proves that the N64 is the best consoles to own in terms of finding good shooting titles. In fact, almost every games in the N64 library (outside of Mario and Zelda) is a shooting game (like FPS, taking pictures, racing, simulation, survival horror, etc). Here are a few known great shooting titles in the N64 library: Diddy Kong Racing and Mario Kart 64 (you race and shoot at the same time to get to the finish line), Perfect Dark, Goldeneye 007, any of the Turok games (you can shoot, stab or punch and kick in FPS), Doom 64, any of the Duke Nukem games, Hexen, any of the Quake games, Pokemon Snap (you shoot pictures with a camera instead of guns), Jet Force Gemini, Star Fox 64 (3D simulation shooter), Resident Evil 2 (survival horror action shooter), Sin and Punishment (this game), any of the Army Men gamkes, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, any of the Vigilante 8 games, Blast Corps, Earthworm Jim 3D, and Yoshi's Story (a platform game with you playing as Yoshi and shoot eggs at enemies). Now can X-Box 360 had good shooting titles like these outside Halo, Gears of War, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto and stuff all of which are only FPS and not different shooting titles like the ones for the N64.
