/vr/ - Retro Games

The entire 5th Generation has aged like milk for one simple reason. It was the first 3D generation and devs were still learning the ropes of 3D.

I've had this discussion before with people. I have coined the 5th Gen of gaming as "You had to have been there" gen.

Low detail
Shitty camera (even Mario 64s Camera can be fucked up)

Even the gameplay can be bad via sloppy control schemes (Tank Controls)

Some of the better games from the generation haven't aged as bad...but they have aged.

The 6th Gen was better in every way since they took the good of the 5th gen and turned it up to 11.

Don't get me wrong, I like the 5th Gen, imho, I think it's because I was there to experience it and can appreciate it for what it is.
