/vr/ - Retro Games

Primal Rage. I remember loving that game when I was a kid. A fighting game? With DINOSAURS? Count me the fuck in!
Nearly 20 years later, I was visiting a friend in California and we went to an arcade (they've mostly died out in Texas, at least anywhere near me). There I saw it. Primal-fucking-Rage. I was so thrilled I had to play it. And you know what? It was so fucking boring and terrible. Don't get me wrong, I love fighting games (my favorite genre) and I know they don't always age well. They're probably one of the worst genres for that in fact. But this wasn't just dated. It was outright bad. I'm still sad over this fact. At the very least, it remains an awesome concept.
