The truth of the matter is that Sonic was never good

>>9750752
Uh you mean that chad keeps insider trading, making bank, and getting out of jail. He did it twice, so the cost of jail must be worth it. Fucking based naka.

This. This is like the first time I've ever seen someone try and use "replaced by fan hacks" as a negative, that's pretty fucking sweet. I wish some of the dead series I like could "suffer" this way.

>classic games forgotten and replaced by fan hacks
I mean, said fan hacks/remakes literally just took the classic games and polished them to a mirror shine while adding all sorts of different tweaks and options to make the definitive versions of themselves. 1 Forever, 2 Absolute, CD Restored, 3 Complete and 3 A.I.R. make the original roms obsolete.

> Hasn't had a good game in the series since 1998
> Even the original devs couldn't make a good 3D Fallout

Even though the Bethesda games suck dick, it's hard not to enjoy seeing a bunch of commies get their shit pushed in by Todd Howard. Even going as far as having the Vault Boy be Bethesda's marketing mascot.

Fan hacks are an extreme mixed bag. Some of them are great video games in their own right but others drag the bad aspects of modern games into the classics.
The real issue is that there's no way to tell whether a hack is good or bad without playing it yourself, sometimes extensively.
One of the nice things about playing old games is how easy it is to have a good experience. I don't like Final Fantasy 7 or Ocarina of Time very much but they're classics for a reason and 99% of people who play them will find something to love. Retro games are inherently less risky than modern games because you can always fall back on games that the general consensus considers to be good. With modern games people's standards have dropped so low that you can't trust any kind of consensus.
Hacks can disrupt that. It sounds nice to play a version of Fire Red with every Pokemon from the entire series obtainable, but most hacks that attempt that do so by shoving dozens of Pokemon in every route, which messes up the games' pacing in numerous ways.
Ultimately I find it easier to just play the original games regardless of what issues they may have rather than source and vet a hack that fixes the problems. If I do run into a bug that prevents me from completing the game I can get around it with cheat codes.

Good one dude

It's just not fair.
I blame modern fans

You got too cocky.

Deserved. Rot in hell.

Because, very few of the 2D Sonic games were good? Sonic 2, 3&K, Advance are the least debatable ones. I love what they did with Triple Trouble, Advance 3, CD, and Pocket Adventure, but they're all not without their problems. Most of the other 2D Sonic games tend to have more bad ideas than good ones.
>3D games used as lol ammo by ecelebs
Because none of them are great? The only good thing in Adventure 1 is Sonic's campaign, and everything else is buggy and undercooked. Adventure 2 is fine but very basic compared to other 3D platforms from that era.
Everything else is either a runner akin to early mobile games, or a lesser (worse) clone of another popular game.

And Ken Penders is free.

As for Mega Man, as much as Capcom has neglected the franchise, and given all the great fanmeade projects, the original games are still worth revisiting.

real creator Akita Kitamura left industry after mm3 and no one knows where is holed

>Main character created by soulless corporate commission
>His debut was as a cameo in a random racing game as a rear-view mirror trinket (lmao)
You expected anything else for sonic?

>early supercar games forgotten except by boomers who might as well mod Assetto Corsa
>tuner games (UG1/UG2/MW05/Carbon) fellated 24/7 by ecelebs

>series creator is a money monger

NFS is a soulless racer with boring overrated cars anyway

>real creator Akita Kitamura left industry after mm3 and no one knows where is holed
Wait, what?!? What are his kanji??? My neighbors are named Kitamura and I'm pretty sure the husband is named Akita. He's an older guy too. Holy fuck am I living in the same building as the guy who created Rockman?

Or NFS is simply not that good

I'll pick
>dudebro with nonexistent taste who shits his pants when he sees the Porsche 911 for the 50th time in the series

>>9755723
that's some schizo logo design. constant back-and-forth, and also this idea that 'NFS' has brand recognition.

>>9755840
Could be worse, you can be a simdad who grows up with Papyrus' NASCAR games/Grand Prix Legends.
>>9755901
That's the type who can't get off/over Porsche Unleashed.
