Never played Jet Force Gemini, but I do remember it quite a bit from those days.
It's a good thing you provided the magazine so I can look over it!

Little known fact. Jet Force Gemini uses a modified Diddy Kong Racing engine as it was the game that team at Rare worked on next, and they didn't share engines between teams.

The controls took a bit to get used to, but then again it was the early days of third person shooters on consoles, and with a single analogue stick to boot, so that's only natural.
But I completed it and had a ton of fun with it. Very unique game at the time.
That's cool to hear. Do you have any magazines with stuff from Blast Corps in it? That was another game I fondly remember from the N64 days.
@Dennis5891
Oh absolutely.
I've done the complete set of N64 Magazine, which did the import review for Blast Corps in issue 2:

I've also done a couple of N64 Pro and 64 Magazines so far, but there's still a ton to scan on those.
BTW, your avatar seems to be broken as it shows up as a question mark.
Awesome! I just grabbed that issue. And that is strange. I just changed my avatar. Did that fix it?
@Dennis5891
Nice!
And yes, it works perfectly now.
