/vr/ - Retro Games

[Anonymous No.3831451]

What retro games deserve the 10/10 label?

And out of those games, do you think they still stand on their own today, or has their success become so magnanimous that their mechanics were completely picked apart and ripped off by future games that they now just feel mundane to a casual observer? Similar to the Seinfeld effect.

Pic related.

Also, Space Harrier, Puyo Puyo and Tempest.

Metal slug 3
Crazy Taxi
House of the dead 2
Star fox 64
Outrun
Windjammers

These are games you can pick up anytime. Games that will last you forever. Also I'm fairly certain that they stand the test of time mostly because almost no other games have even tried to top them.

Dune 2000


I do not have nostalgia for this game I'm playing for the first time ever at the age of 27 and this game fucking rules oh my God. I wasn't smart enough as a little kid to appreciate it when it was released and playing it now after suffering the past 8years of modern and progressive games this title Dune 2000 is like nothing else. I'm happy to be alive so that I can experience old games for the first time

Especially Outrun. No matter I'm playing 2006 on pc, or the master system version or the 3ds one, I just love this game.
We had a talk with my best Nintenfag friend about "which game would you choose if you can only keep one", but we all agreed that it would be a Sega arcade game before agreeing on Outrun.
It isn't long, there's only 5 ending, but the feeling you get playing it cannot be compare to any other.

Final Fantasy Tactics
Castlevania Symphony of the Night
Super Metroid

I think they're all timeless till this day and hold up extremely well regardless of how their mechanics may have been taken or improved upon. They offer their own unique blend that no other game in their respective franchises has. In their respective genres they prove to be exemplary examples of how it can be done near perfectly regardless of what version one may play (even if there are arguments which is the 'better' version, their gameplay stays consistent regardless). Then again I'm extremely bias and arguing more from a position of passion and personal enjoyment. So I'm not the best person to ask.
