Blast Corps is the best N64 game. Period. Sometime you just want to blow things up and Blast Corps helps you do it. For most levels you are a vehicle trying to save a truck filled with nuclear weapons from crashing into any buildings and exploding. You have the options of being a ramdozer, sideswiper, dump truck, very fast cars, trains, missle-shooting racers, J-Bomb, IronFist, a gokart, and a lot more. This game is so much fun! If you like blowing up stuff, then get Blast Corps.

Rare used to make good games

Up until they were bought by microsoft and half their staff left, Rare used to make awesome games. This is one of them. Blast Corps is one of the hardest games I have ever played and yes maybe a little too hard. But, look at it this way, it's been about a decade since it came out and I still have a reason to play it. Getting all platinum medals is probably the most ridiculous task in video game history. This is what I like about Nintendo games, even though you beat it, you didn't really "beat" it, Like goldeneye with all the cheats, or mario kart ds with 3 stars. some of the vehicles are hard to control but that's pretty much the point of the vehicle. On the plus side, if you like a challenge then this is a great game for you. On the down side, you will probably never be able to beat it all the way.

Eww

Now ive seen bad games over the past 9 years but this game by far is the absolute worst! it discrasis the system of N64... , i mean common it gets boring in less the 24 hours!, This game is a very sad excuse of a game compared to the rest of N64 games out there... (zelda64,quest64,excitebike64,Gauntlet legends,starcraft64,super mario64,donkey kong64...etc..) i can not stress enough the importance of how much a waste of total time,money,software,reviews this game is..., so wut im gettin at is= DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IT IS A WASTE!

I remember burrowing this from a friend because I ran out of N64 games to play so I burrowed this and some other games for a few days. I have to say it was fun at first, than it became frustrating, and than I felt like I was going to throw up because of the weird controls and this and that moving around in weird places which I didn't intended in doing. It was also because I was really young then and I really didn't know what the game was really about, which is puzzle solving sometimes.

I advise not buying the game, instead tell your friend to buy it because its the best game ever and take it from him when he wants to throw it out. Of course you'll lose a friend, but well worth it! Game > Friendship. I'm just playing kids.

Do not rent this game. It is (A) a waste of three bucks, (B) a horrible game, and (C) you can't win! What the heck is the object of the game? There's nothing to do! You complete objectives and then... what? don't rent this game, rent GOLDENEYE 007--- IT'S AWESOME!

Warning: DO NOT BUY!

This is quite possibly the worst video game in the entire history of video games. There is NO plot and the graphics leave much to be desired. There really is no point to the game. The levels are dull with no real excitement. As soon as I started playing I felt compelled to turn it off and demand that I get my money back. It is about a bunch of construction vehicles. NOT THAT EXCITING! I have had more fun staring at walls than I had playing this game (not that I stare at walls too often). If you purchase this game, return it immediately from whence it came. They should have to pay the customer to play it. It's that bad.

THIS GAME SUCKS BIG TIME

This game is extremely confusing for my 6 year old son and also for my 27 year son who is an excellent gamer who can master any game. He did not find it interesting enough to even try and figure it out. Instructions are vague and no help at all. There is no purpose to this game and what do you do when you get to where you are suppose to be? Wasted my money on this one.

When I first saw this game I thought it would be great, Right? WRONG! This game is terribly frustrating. The controls are sloppy, the graphics lack depth and the vehicles are murder to control. The Harbor level was the hardest and most challenging. You have to blast your was across a harbor to prevent the missile carrier and every move has to be PRECISE!. If you make even just one mistake then it will cost you the level and you will have to start over. Tak my advice and DO NOT BUY OR EVEN RENT THIS GAME! The only good part about it is when you rent it and someone has beaten all the levels and you can goof around all you want but even that gets old. FICKEN MIT SIE BLAST CORPS! FICKEN MIT SIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not for everybody

THIS IS NOT A GAME FOR INEXPERIENCED GAMERS! My little brother couldn't figure this game out for his life. However, I am an experienced gamer (I've been glued to my TV ever since I got my NES back in '88), and I liked this game a lot once I got the hang of it.

Here's the story: There is a truck carrying nuclear devices, and it is supposed to be on a set course that cannot be changed. However, the truck is now off-course, and its direction can't be changed (oops). If it hits anything, the nukes will explode. It's your duty to clear the path for this thing and prevent it from blowing up. To do this, you have all sorts of vehicles and 40 foot robots and such. So basically, your job is to destroy everything in this truck's path.

This sounds like it would be very boring and repetetive, right? WRONG! All of the vehicles have their strenghts and weaknesses, and you must master using all of them in order to beat the game. Also, there are some strategy elements in this game, since some parts of the level may be inaccessable to certain vehicles, so you have to use the right vehicles at the right time. There's also parts where you have to move stuff around in just the right order for everything to work out. You've heard the expression ''there's more than one way to skin a cat.'' Well, there's more than one way for a truck full of nukes to blow up, and there's more than one way to clear its path (just make sure you use the right one on the right level ;)).

You get a medal for beating each level, how good you do determines how good of a medal you get. This adds to the replay value, which is important because this game is a little short (I said a LITTLE short). The last levels are kind of cool, they don't even take place on Earth...

If you are an experienced gamer that is looking for something new, at least rent this game. I don't think there has ever been a game like this, and it provides good challenge. Those guys at Rareware are geniuses!

I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could...
