Do a barrel roll!

[Prometheus]

No longer is it just a stupid, embarrassing-to-hear line in Star Fox 64, it's now also a Google Easter Egg as well.


Seriously. Go to Google and search for "do a barrel roll". Just make sure you're using an HTML 5 compliant browser.

Surprisingly enough, it also worked for 'do a barral roll', as Google'll assume you meant the correct spelling.


Also, it's actually excellently voice acted for that generation of games, and surprisingly good advice, as pressing Z or R twice can get you out of a stick situation. If you want truly bad voice acting, go here:

Oh my ears! (Also, I didn't say that Star Fox 64 was truly badly-acted, although admittedly I don't think it's fantastic. There's a difference between bad acting and embarrassing to listen to! Good advice it may be, but I hate the way the game shoves it in your face and tells you exactly how you absolutely should be playing it roughly every few seconds. I read the manual, the controls are not difficult, you do not need to tell me all the time. That's what the training mode was supposed to be for!)


Anyhow, I'm not entirely sure that this silliness sells me on HTML 5...

Didn't work for me. I'm still using Firefox 4.0.1

Ha, as it turns out, I just assumed you meant bad voice acting, as my reading skillz are poor. And you do have a point, I could see Megaman could get a bit old if you heard "to use your blaster, press b" every five minutes or so.

I like Starfox 64, one of the few Console Games I ever finished. Sadly, the game does not play very well pon the Pandora, not even close.

The exact term(s) for Blanka's awesome move is "Cannon Ball".

Damn, doesn't work on the last version of Opera. Tilt does work though.

 

[fusion_power]

I noticed that alot of stuff doesn't work anymore on Opera. It is my fav. Web Browser actualy. ^^"


However, there are alot of funny stuff you can do with Google. Type in "weapons of mass destruction" without quotes and hit "I'm feeling lucky", for example. :lol:

Really my pandora plays starfox really good, (thats at 800mhz) it lags now and then but nothing major and i just ran it at 500mhz and it played suprisingly well (i fogot to change the clock speed) seems strange it plays really on my pandora but not yours?

 

[fusion_power]

Overclocking does not count. OK, I play the N64 Emu usualy at 750MHz but except Mario 64 no game I've tested felt "right". I was able to improve the feeling a little bit by lowering the analog nub sensitivity at least. I also did lowering the Res to 320x240 but the performance improvement was minimal. And somehow Mupen64 feels not that great in combining frameskip with still decent playablity or I just have not found any suiting setting for the right feeling. Maybe it is just because I played Starfox 64 to death back then in the old days and it burned the original gameplay feeling in my head. ^^"
