/vr/ - Retro Games

>>3750562
Pokemon Blue, I just find it to be a very relaxing game to play even though I've already beaten it at least ten times.

If I can only choose one then I might as well drop the hobby altogether and actually do something productive with my life.

>>3750562
It's not like something is gonna change in my life if it will become the sole game.
Oh wait, no HoMM II.

>>3750571
>actually do something productive with my life
Both you and I know that wouldn't happen

>>3750562
Eternal Champions, because it's so hard you need a lifetime to finish it.

Seriously, Super Street Fighter II Turbo.

>>3750562
An SNES flashcart.

With all the expansions/DLCs and full access to the modding community, please.

>>3750664
Of course not, because OP's premise is bullshit, so I'll keep playing video games :^)

>>3750562
More than likely a Pokémon Game and its ROM Hacks. How old are we talking about though? Just to have a better idea.

>>3750851
Old as in "old enough to be discussed on /vr/". Read the sticky.

quake 3, assuming access to mods, maps, and multiplayer

>>3750562
Well, damn, you posted it.

Somedays I like MGS more but FF9 is such a great and big game I'd probably pick it as my favourite.

Mario 64 or Pokemon Crystal, I don't know, just keep shit chill and basic.

>>3750562
probabli ix yeah

probably a sports game as sad as that is. I like the tiger woods golf games on the ps2/xbox preferably 2004 or '05.

it's just it's immensely replayable. hell, even most sandbox games would get old.

if I had to go non-sports games...and not online maybe mount and blade with mods.

Metal Gear Solid, I don't think I could ever get bored of that game. If not that, then SOTN. Both are tied for my favorite video game.

MGS, Chrono Trigger, or Pokemon Crystal

>>3750807
no access to modding community, that's like having multiple games plus not retro, kill yourself.

>>3751568
Excellent taste.

>>3750562
super metroid. refining your run can take lifetimes. i still can't reliably nope kraid.

>>3751802
nice memes XD

It wouldn't be that game, but "Terra" is one of the most perfect things I have ever heard in a video game.

Pure autism

Blasting Dinos is fun

Elder Scrolls 3

At its finest my wizard friend.

This thread makes no sense.

It sucks so much because you didn't give it any context or structure or anything, didn't put any effort into it.

The idea of playing one game for the rest of your life is absurd and repulsive.

You should have made this something like "you are only allowed to play one game on an actual decent sized screen", and you'd have to play any other games in secret in an eerie basement on a weak computer with a mp3 player sized display.

>>3750562
This threat should have been something like

"All games are now arcade games, and you can only own one arcade machine, which one game do you want to be an arcade title?"

or

"You awaken in a world with only computers that need a lot of work to be made able to play even retro games, which one game do you request your specialized build for?"

>>3752554
nonono your being sent on a mission to mars, due to weight and data constraints you may only take one game for the 2 year mission, which game do you choose?

>>3752554
>>3752537
You're great fun at parties.

>>3750639
This or Jagged Alliance 2.

>>3750562
Why the fuck would you pick FF9 to play nonstop
At least pick something fun

>>3752537
>The idea of playing one game for the rest of your life is absurd and repulsive.
some quakeworld guys seem to enjoy it.

regardless, you and >>3752554 are missing the point. reflect and figure out what would be the toughest to live without. you're the one who isn't putting in effort, numbnuts.

unless you're reading the op as you're chained to the game and can do nothing else but play it for the rest of your life. in which case, ok.

Same Anon here, Sorry and Thank you.

>>3750562
I'd go with Pokémon Gold then.

>>3750562
kek

>>3752564
sorry, someone got you: >>3750795
and, hah, "two years"? That just blatantly a far less far out question!

>>3750562
the snes games are the ones

mario rpg

>>3750562
System shock. Or deus ex. I still need to play those.

FF8 obviously

>>3750562
Let's see...

Nexuiz => quake/quake3 and unreal are out.
Icewind dale 2 => icewind dale is not really necessary
Quake 2 <= unnecessary due to Quake 4, Tremulous, Urban Terror and the like
Semi-realistic racing games have probably been reasonably measured up with by some stuff on Xbox.
Scorched 3d => can forget about scorched earth and worms

BG2toDale also wouldn't count as an old game, ain't that so?

>>3752656
I don't get personally attached to games like that. Why would you want to worship a game in such a way?

Age of Empires II. Ive been playing it for the last 20 years, why change it up now?

>>3750562
I'm torn between Vagrant story and FFT.
