getting real tired of reddit rebranding things
>>
>>736444212
I've played half of them, and nowadays they would be considered 5-7/10.
>>
>>736445646
What games would you consider 8-10s then?
>>
>>736444992
fpbp but how the fuck did a 2009 game slip in there?
>>
>>736444212
only the Nintendo ones
>>
>>736445821
That's 17 years ago unc
>>
>>736444212
I've played most of these. Only one that doesn't hold up is banjo imo. Its good and definitely charming but its not on the same level as most of the other games.
>>
>>736445991
It's just so inconsistent with the rest.
>>
>>736446070
It's still the best collectathon to date, it's the only game that ever made me "get" the genre, and the dynamic soundtrack is just masterclass.
>>
>>736446484
Those are good points about the value
>>
>>736444212
There's just a lot of quality of life stuff that people expect that isn't there for some of these. For some of the others the Polish is so high that nothing can even touch them today.

Your thread doesn't hold up, bitch.

>>736444212
Katamari Damacy is one of the easiest recs ever
>>
>>736444212
Banjo-Kazooie is typical rare slop. Super Metroid is just the gold standard. The rest from Dracula's Curse to Katamari Damacy have aged well. NGB, Chaos Theory, Demon's Souls, SH1, and Timsplitters Future Perfect. are masterpieces.

Really, the only ones I say haven't aged well are Tomb Raider, Ultima VII, Deus Ex, Fallout 1, Morrowind, Ico, Max Payne, Starfox 64, Baldur's Gate 2, Jagged Alliance 2, Super Mario Bros 3, and Metal Slug because they suffer from jank and poor controls/design input the most and are usually perfect by other later sequels like Metal Slug 3, Mario World, Icewind Dale, and Fallout 2.

The only games I hate from this list are Bayonetta and, to an egrgeious extent, RE4. But only because I genuinely hate RE4 due to its heavy-handed design and because Bayonetta is an uglier Devil May Cry for coomers and wine moms.

>>736447128
I would 100% unironically instantly block you if you recommended a super casual baby game like that to me, that would be more than enough to determine we'd never get along

Over the last year or so I’ve used this image to guide my playing habits and I’ve been much happier as a result and I’ve learned that there’s no such thing as a game “aging”. It was either good when it came out and is still good today or it wasn’t.
>>736448672
>Tomb Raider, Ultima VII, Deus Ex, Fallout 1, Morrowind, Ico, Max Payne, Starfox 64, Baldur's Gate 2, Jagged Alliance 2, Super Mario Bros 3, and Metal Slug
>haven't aged well
Everything wrong with video games is because of you
>>
>>736448672
Max Payne aged the best out of these all. Besides Blood Money
>>
>>736448672
>Super Metroid is just the gold standard.
Why is it always Super Metroid fanboys that have the worst fucking taste imaginable?

Shitty action and platforming, pisseasy enemies and hazards that don't even pose the slightest threat, one-dimensional bosses, and 90% of the game is spent slowly inspecting every title of every room, but it's a masterpiece btw.
>>
>>736448672
Retard, how the fuck does Metal Slug 3 inprove controls/"jank" from 1, what the fuck are you even talking? You haven't cleared either game, just shut the fuck up

>Super Metroid is le masterpiece
>but Star Fox 64, BG2, ICO, Max Payne, and SMB3 aged poorly
>also my least favorite games are the ones with the deepest gameplay on the whole list, RE4 and Bayonetta
You are a massive fucking retard with some of the worst taste I have ever seen. Kys
>>
>>736450690
It's not that serious, dude.
>>
>>736449946
some of what i listed not even on nintendo and i omitted plenty of nintendo so.. no.
>>
>>736444212
>Yes
>Yes
>Eh... It depends on how you respond to high difficulty.
>Yes
>Yes
>Fuck the pathfinding, but otherwise yes.
>No clue.
>No clue
>Gunplay is mid as fuck, but if you can get lost in the atmosphere and vibe it's very memorable.
>Get a patch and it's a unforgetable, if still kind of fucked, experience.
>It's mostly a novelty.
>Yes, but new Hitman is better.
>No clue
>Sure, I guess. Feels it requires a specific type of person though.
>Very odd game that's not for everybody, but if it grabs you it really, REALLY grabs you.
>No clue.
>Yes, but fix the difficulty curve bug.
>Very fun. Kind of shallow and easy though.
>Absolutely worth playing even if you aren't normally into horror.
>No clue
>It's fine.
>If you can find a "Pay once, play forever" arcade, 100%. Trying to clear it without continues is saved for the truely mad though.
>Dark souls is better.
>No.
>Yes, but play it at the right age.
>Remake is better.
>Yes, though playing it before Vampire is a mistake.
>Yes
>Like Morrowind it's either going to grab you or leave you completely cold. Game is very empty compared to Morrowind though. Not recommended for replaying.
>Yes, but Super Mario World is objectively better.
>Fuck no. Ass only carried, by, well, ass.
>No clue
>No clue
>Pretty fun if you can overlook the insane difficulty.
>Genuinely nigh unplayable.
>>
>>736452654
If I’m reading list correctly you think BG2 doesn’t hold up in which case I diagnose you with low IQ
>>
>>736452915
You are and yes it does not. Most old RPG's do not. Fallout just barely gets away with it because it's very easy and kind of empty.

Also I personally hate D&D style fantasy.
>>
>>736444212
From left to right, top to bottom:
No Yes Yes Yes Yes No
Yes No Yes No Yes No
Yes Yes No Yes No No
Yes Yes No Yes Yes Yes
No Yes No Yes No No
Yes No No Yes Yes No

>>736453582
*Basically, almost all the jap ones hold up and all the western ones don't
>>
>>736444212
>old core
why do stupid fucking souls fags keep self inserting their dogshit games into these lists? No one wants to play your shitty game you reddit fags
>>
>>736453170
I completely disagree. BG2 holds up very well. It’s BG1 that shows its age.
>>
>>736453582
>>736453648
The shilling people will do for nipslop is astounding
