PhelsarusBeel Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 TES 3 Morrowind: One of the oldest games I remember playing (when I was like what 8 or so). To this day a very enjoyable experience for me cause I like getting lost and discover stuff due to that. Battle Realms: A unique RTS games that's rather underrated. Fun and simple mechanics and very cool factions. Starcraft: A classic. If you ever played any RTS game you've heard of Starcraft or even played it. Not much more to say. C&C Red Alert 2 + Yuri's Revenge: Can anyone guess my fav genre yet? Another classic and whacky yet still kinda serious. Also flying saucers. And 2 more "recent" (<10 years) ones for good measures. Warhammer 40K Dawn of War: More specificly Soulstorm with the Ultimate Apocalypse mod. Supreme Commander: Last RTS I swear ^^'. Still a very good game even today. Sad that the sequel was so lackluster in comparison. And with that I stop cause otherwise I prolly find 10 more games pffff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeeh I know it those first 30-45 minutes till I got those boots is a pain due to how sluggish you move ha ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlesienne Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I mostly play games considered old by most. Thief, ZOO Tycoon... And you know what? I don't give a damn about people laughing I'm vintage (nice) or sepulchral (not nice). These games are gems of their genres and the fandoms keep them alive.

Fruerte Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Around 60% of the games I play are various shades of old. 37% are mildly aged (two to six years), and new games are like 3%, most of them Vita releases. Yes, I'm one of those crazies who gets offended when the spoilers for 10-20 old games are tossed around freely under the excuse "they are old, no one cares, those who wanted to play these relics of the past have done so already".

Pyromailmann Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Probably Call of Duty: World at War right now, but I also used to play the Singleplayer Half-Life games (That's Half Life 1 to Half Life 2: Episode 2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiptonPee Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I actually booted up Pokemon Gold this week Usually it's pokemans that are old in general or just games that are old to me (e.g., Transformice, Dragoncave, LBP2, Neopets.... a few of them are not that old honestly but I was 11-13 playing them, and some you might not even consider actual games lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouKnowWho Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I own an NES, SNES, and an N64, so it's not a rare occasion for me to be playing old games. Currently though, I've been playing the first dragon quest game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battal Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Every once in a while I'll muster up the effort to find all the disks and stuff for Diablo 2 and play that for a while. It was the first real game I played on the PC, and also the first "violent" game I played (I was 6 or 7 when I started). Even nowadays it's still a really solid game, despite its age.

GuyNamedChris Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Hold on... *searches through pile of dusty PS2 games* Ah, here we are! An old classic. Probably one of the best racing games to date. It's definitely stood the test of time, to me at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudedude Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I used play the original Yoshi's Island on my GameBoy Advance all the time, and then one day I lost the cartridge and I was so sad. That was about 2 years ago... I mean I've gotten over it, but I wish I could still play it. Ah, memories... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Matt Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Earthbound has to be the game I always keep coming back to, even though it's only every two years that I actually get around to replaying it. Between those times, I like to boot up one of two saves I have on my computer, one of which I keep permanently on Moonside (my favourite segment of the game) and the other is post endgame, for that ever lingering feel of accomplishment. Aside from that, there's Portal 2, which despite having five years under its belt somehow always feels like it was released the year before, and the Zork series, because I love text-based adventure.

TheKingDedede Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Ōkami. I got it when it first came out on the PS2 and completed it when I was quite young. What is this game, you may ask? This. Such an obscure title to most. I'm glad I was able to play this but sad it didn't sell better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was originally a PS2 game and it was later ported on the Wii and the PS3. This video was just a quick search I found on YouTube for the HD Edition on the PS3. It was released on the PS2 on April 20, 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most games nowadays are expected to break sales into the millions in various regions to be even considered a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Artifact Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Well, my favourite and most played game of all time is slowly nearing its tenth anniversary... Oh good ol' TF2, you're going through a rough spot right now with Valve treating you like the red-headed stepchild, but dammit, I still love ya. Other than that, I replay the Prince of Persia - Sands of Time series at least once a year; I would also totally replay the original Prince of Persia games if I could convince them to run on this modern PC, but alas. Also recently went through the first three Monkey Island games again (Number 4 also being impossible to get working on a 64 bit system, woe is me). I also had a dabble with the oldschool DOOM games after being enthralled by the new one, and went through Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy IX on both PC and PSVita. So as it turns out, I'm much more of a hipster than I realized.... cue identity crisis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
