    Lead a Horse to Water, but If One Chokes Them in It They Will not Return to the Watering Hole Mario 64 was a good videogame. Probably still one of the best made. As a child there were times I would play the too much, and in turn, I would not be allowed to play that game for two weeks. What was worse than not being able to play, however, was the fact that I did not have the choice to play.
