>>736444212getting real tired of reddit rebranding things
>>736444212I've played half of them, and nowadays they would be considered 5-7/10.
>>736445646What games would you consider 8-10s then?
>>736444992fpbp but how the fuck did a 2009 game slip in there?
>>736444212only the Nintendo ones
>>736445821That's 17 years ago unc
>>736444212I'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.
>>736445991It's just so inconsistent with the rest.
>>736446070It'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.
>>736446484Those are good points about the value
>>736444212There'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.
>>736444212Your thread doesn't hold up, bitch.
>>736444212Katamari Damacy is one of the easiest recs ever
>>736444212Banjo-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.
>>736447128I 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
>>736449051I'm sorry Mr. Mature I don't think we would get along either
Play them and find out.
>>736444212Yes but RE4, Blood Money, and Max Payne mog every other game listed
Only yeses:BanjoSOTNDKC2SF64RE4 (Wii only)Bayomost these werent good games even for their time
>>736444212Why are you scared of aging zoomer?Afraid your streamer horror bait is gonna be called uncslop?
>>736449539bad tendie bait
>>736444212All of them hold up except for rollslopIt's better than what came after but it's still shit
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 wellEverything wrong with video games is because of you
>>736448672Max 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.
>>736448672Retard, 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
>>736450690It's not that serious, dude.
>>736449946some 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.
>>736452654If I’m reading list correctly you think BG2 doesn’t hold up in which case I diagnose you with low IQ
>>736452915You 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.
>>736444212From left to right, top to bottom:No Yes Yes Yes Yes NoYes No Yes No Yes NoYes Yes No Yes No NoYes Yes No Yes Yes YesNo Yes No Yes No NoYes No No Yes Yes No
>>736453582*Basically, almost all the jap ones hold up and all the western ones don't
>>736444212>old corewhy 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
>>736453170I completely disagree. BG2 holds up very well. It’s BG1 that shows its age.
>>736453582>>736453648The shilling people will do for nipslop is astounding
