/vr/ - Retro Games

[Anonymous No.3714073]

How do you guys actually enjoy playing old games without getting depressed or just raging at how so few of them are even worth playing?

There's only like, 5, good N64 games. 90+% of SNES games are licensed trash. There's some good PSX games, but there's so fucking many, you have to wade through a ton to find a one gem.

Everytime I download an old game I know I played as a kid, Im in near disbelief at how awful it is.

The exception so far is the original psx Medal of Honor, which is God damn amazing, probably even better than Goldeneye, excluding multiplayer.

Everything else though is trash, pure trash

I was underwhelmed by following classics: A link to the past, ffv, secret of mana and super mario world. Must be nostalgia or autism that drives these fags. I enjoyed clock tower, illusion of gaia, super metroid, soul blazer and donkey kong country.

Actual autism is thinking that only your tastes are right and everyone else is wrong.

The real autism here is thinking that 90% of old games are worth playing, and not the opposite

Nah, not me. I can respect different opinions. Truth is I know people have different tastes, even I personally despise Smario World. Just stating my opinion that I hate these games suck doesnt make me an autist that invalidates others opinions. The real autists are the ones that call different opinions bait , shitposting or call you a contrarian ...all with the purpose of keeping thr illusion of their vr bubble.

Is this a thinly veiled recommendation thread?

I tend to agree there weren't all that many good games, but I remember them being bad back when they came out, so I don't experience this "disbelief at how awful it is" thing.

I enjoy playing old games because I literally haven't played 95% of them since I started gaming with the PS2. You're right that the majority are trash though, that's what flash carts and emulators are for. I can't imagine being some autistic hoarder who spends years of his life and thousands of dollars on shitty baby toys.

Just because you played garbage as a kid doesn't mean the whole console library is bad. All of the games I liked back when I was a child I still like now.

> 90+% of SNES games are licensed trash
Not anywhere near that. In any case, don't play them, what's your problem? That still leaves enough good games to keep you occupied, I'm not sure I have to name again because the lists have been on the internet since the '90s.

Depends, the acclaim ones work more like regular, early 3D fighter and weren't bad back in the day. But WWF Attitude had insane amounts of customization that was really, really fun.
(I made so many CPU controlled King of the Rings with custom characters)

That being said, the AKI Wrestling games, not only the WWF titles, were all pretty great.
Wrestlemania 2000 had a really long and cool career mode for example.
WCW/nWo Revenge was much simpler, but fun nonetheless.

The AI alone makes MoH better, that and better sound, better gameplay, actual voice acting (literally Goldeneye has none), the best graphics ever showcased in a PSX fps, and the fact that the game was produced by Steven Spielberg and is the grandather of the modern realistic WW2 shooter

I actually haven't, which is why I was asking. I'm not a FPS guy. Especially if said FPS is pro-allies.

I doubt the PS controller allow for as much precision as the N64's stick does, though. It probably has clunky, slow controls like most other dual analog console FPS do.
I seriously doubt the gameplay is better. Anyway, not a big goldeneye fan either.

Not at all, I'm surprised that there's many that are of quality. I'm more upset at the idea that we'll never really see this many good or interesting games ever again. Maybe wading through old games to find gems is tiring for you but it's fucking impossible today.

A majority of the SNES games that I've bought in the last 10 years I played as a kid with friends. I didn't buy them from recommendations, I didn't buy them from a top 10 list, and they're fantastic. Part of that could be memories or part of that could be that I had beaten the entire game or worked forever to beat the entire game, but they're still great games none the less. Sorry your 15.
