Quote:In terms of which one is ultimately the "better" game I'd probably agree with you about OoT, but in terms of which is my "favorite" I'd have to go with Mario 64. It's been a constant companion to many for many years and was one of the few games I remember from my dim past that I really played a lot, another game like that is Sonic 2. I played both of those games to death. They're still awesome games even today...
I didn't play either one over and over. Both I beat (in Mario 64 that means 'beating final Bowser'), and haven't played for large amounts of time since. I never beat OoT again (though I got halfway once), and never got all the stars in Mario 64. Great games both, but with other games to play I never went back to them for long... and in Mario 64's case the knowledge that a lot of those stars were really hard to get and I'd likely never get them all anyway also dissuaded me from trying very hard to get many past the minimum required. :)
