This is a thread for us younger anons (1997-) to talk about retro games.What are (You) currently playing?
I'm a millennial. Can I post in your thread?You guys remember the PSX? What a console.
currently playing Shining force 3 and Abe Exodus
>>12044307>What are (You) currently playing?Castle of Dr. Brain with EGA graphics. On the hardest difficulty the number matrix puzzle in the second room is 2difficult4me.
>>12044307Shining Force 12nd Genesis game ive started after finishing PSIV (10/10 game, but left me somewhat miffed)
>>12044307We aren't young anymore man. And its gay to demand special treatment with our own little thread. It shouldn't matter if you're 20 or 80 on this board. Who you are is irrelevant
>>12044407just let the kids play grandpa ffs
>>12044432What the fuck are you talking about
>>12044307BioShock - Xbox 360
>Tfw born in 1996Are older zoomers really that old now? Damn
Extremely dumb topic missing the entire point of anonymous posting. "Name video games: the thread"
This thread devolved fast
>>12044662Its basically a thread without a subject
>>12044307Man, I feel bad for your generation.
>>12044648Millennials weren't even born yet in 1997.All those young bucks jealous they aren't gen x.
>>12044307I was a poorfag so I only played games 2 gens behind until highschool.
>>12044665why
Gen Xer here. I enjoy making fun of millennial retards alongside you kids. Keep up the good work!
>>12044307I tried playing this piece of shit. Cleared the first level and realized its not a bomberman game at all.What the FUCK were they thinking???
>Never has a game bombed more successfullyI think the devs even knew how awful this shit was when they were making it.>shitty puzzle / maze like level design>attrocious mario-party-like minigamesWHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING???
>>12044738>>12044746I never played a Bomberman game, am I missing out?
>>12044791it's a unique kind of gameplay, theres not really anything like it
>>12044307gay fr no cap >>12044316>I'm a millennial.pic related everybody hate millenials it is what unites all other generations
>>12044794i'm speaking as someone who only played 2D bomberman games, dont know if the 3D ones are any good
>>12044316NO. grandpa go back to bed
>>12044738Bomberman peaked at Bomberman '94 for the PC Engine
>>12044795Nigga, oldfags have been bitching and shitting on younger generations since the beginning of mankind. You've just been in the period where genXers were the ones writing the articlesNow oldfag millennials are the ones writing the articles and they're starting to shit on zoomers
>>12044795The thing about millenials is we don't care if you lot hate us. Zoomshits get anxiety and depression over not being mommy's little special boy.
>>12044875>Zoomshits get anxiety and depression over not being mommy's little special boysource?
I dunno about the mommy thing but Zoomers are poor anxious incels
>>12044958>the most anxious generation, adjusted for inflation
>>12044969It's worded stupidly but it's not wrongSince 1970, wages are becoming a lower and lower percentage of GDP. Meaning you're getting less money and billionaires are getting more
>>12044307melee and half life / quake
Anything and everything retro. At least in ancient gaming terms . Text adventures, ASCII games, 3d dungeon crawlers.
>>12045115>ancientwew lad
For such an easy topic I'm almost surprised nobody's bothing to say anything
When did people start seriously identifying with marketing group horoscopes?
Majuu Ou was the last retro game I played. I saw footage of the 1st level and I thought it was going to be Castlevania with guns, but it was just shit. The worst part is that your attacks do shit damage and have zero recovery frames, so the game is entirely reliant on how fast you can spam the attack button. Kind of insane that they designed it that way. Shame because the spritework and a few of the ideas are amazing.
>>12044795You mean boomers and gen-xers concoct insane lies about Millennials(like suggesting the majority ever participated in ridiculous trends like man-buns, or going vegan), and often blame us for things they did (like introducing participation trophies, or HR departments).And when they aren't doing that, they just seethe that we don't want to visit their overpriced restaurant or something.
>>12044898Nine, I made it up
>>12044738It's a follow up to the N64 story driven action-adventure bomberman games, but nowhere near as good. The two N64 bomberman games are the best games ever made in any series or genre or console
>>12046372>The two N64 bomberman gamesThere were two? So there's a direct sequel to Bomberman 64? I really should have went on a 64 buying spree went everything dropped to £10 or less in the bargain bins. Hindsight is 20/20.
>>12044307Just finished OOT last night.Nothing special at first but became kino once I turned into adult Link. Ganon's castle was a bit disappointing, though. The micro dungeons were too short and didn't do anything interesting, and the story, which so far had kept me engaged, ended in such a cliche manner it was anticlimactic. Still, I had fun, and I can see how a 90s kid would think it's the greatest game ever made.Thinking of playing Majora's next. Is the 3 day time limit too annoying?
>>12044307Can I hang out with you guys as a 96 birth? I don't remember 9/11 or relate to Millennials at all.>What are (You) currently playing?Klonoa.
>>12047331Anybody post-92 and pre-97, is a proto-zoomer.
>>12047268You make me ashamed to be a zoomer man. What dogshit.
>>12047490What did I say that you found preposterous, anon?
>>120472683 day limit is perfectly manageable. There's a song you get that slows time down too. Best thing to do is not worry about it, you don't have to do every little thing in a single cycle, you can spread things out.
>>12047782That's great to know.Thanks, anon.
>>12044307100% Crash 2 last night. Honestly preferred the first game a bit. Still fun though.
Kirby's Dream Land. I love vore my enemies
i'm a zoomer and i've been getting into wrestling games recently, i don't understand why people worship the aki games at all, they're too slow and too fast at the same time, the controls are clunky and mysterious, people are saying wwf no mercy is the best game and it genuinely bewilders me, the grappling system is serviceable in theory, but you'll be too busy getting them reversed by th a cpu to enjoy it
>>12048358I've tried a handful of wrestling games in my life and I have absolutely zero clue about how the fuck you're supposed to play them
>>12048410when it comes to retro i would say svr 2011 might be the easiest and here comes the pain might be the best, wrestling games have weird controls sometimes, but at least it's not like fighting games
>>12048416Thanks anon, I'll look into them
>>12047801Now getting used to the controls in Ape Escape.
>>12044307>What are (You) currently playing?Getting started on Super Metroid. I haven't really touched the series before, but I just recently beat Zero Mission and really liked it, so I figured I'd play the game in the series that everyone sucks off the hardest. I'm thinking of starting one of the zillion RPGs in my backlog (probably Xenogears), but I'm also reading a couple long visual novels right now and I don't know if that would distract me from them or not.>>12044407>We aren't young anymore man.I'm 19 I'm basically a fucking corpse it's so over for me>>12047801I should get back to Crash 2. I've started 2 and 3 before but never beaten either of them, just the first.
>>12044307Finally got my ps2 and crt tv set up and started playing this. I would play the other game I got for it(Darkwatch) but the disc wouldn't scan so I'm just playing this before I firgure that out
>>12044307Currently moving through Quake 1's campaign at a glacial pace then afterwards I'm gonna seek out some WADs because I can't get enough of that game's engine. I also want to play some stuff on my OG Xbox (there's a few racing games I've been holding off for a while) but the basement is a total mess right now. :/
>>12044307Currently playing Metal Gear Solidstarted playing MGSV but realized that was probably a terrible idea so I am going through the series in release order (with the exception of ghost babel, acid games and portable ops since those i heard aren't canon and aren't really even all that good anyway). So far the only real frustrating part was Sniper Wolf. Aiming the sniper rifle is slow as shit.>>12044679just raise the black flag like a normal person. with how the dogshit the economy is no one is going to care except some elitist retards on here. i couldn't even afford to pay for my textbooks this year, i sure as shit am not paying for any videogames.
playing Link's Awakening after I jerked off to Zelda's feet
>>12049101>jerked off to Zelda's feetBased, but Zelda isn't really in that game... Marin a cute though
>age segregation threadsFaggot shit, even on /v/. Fuck off to reddit.
>>12049506
>>12049506>t. screeches about and blames zoomers for everything bad in every other thread
>>12044738>>12044746the story was a weird 3d take on bomberman, and extremely easy to cheese. you play through once, and forget it. i still had fun though. also, it still has classic bomberman battles anyway, so you can play against friends or com all you want. the worst thing is the annoying gay sounds they cat npcs make, and the gay announcer voice. very faggy shit. other than that its as fun as bomberman ever was.
>>12044357>Shining Force 1stick through it if you're enjoying it so far. there are a lot of little hassles and inconveniences in the experience (choke points, massive forests, item management when looting chests, and many more), but sf2 fixes pretty much all of those for a MUCH smoother experience. sf1 is pretty good/cool despite the inconveniences, and struggling through it will make you appreciate sf2 all the more.
Honestly good thread Idea. Us early Gen-Z are getting up there in age a bit. '97 here, 28yo.>What are (You) currently playing?Playing through my list of MegaDrive bucket list games. Got like 100 that I would like to beat. Finished Dynamite Heady and Streets of Rage 1 last week. Now I'm on to Hellfire, getting my Shmup' on!
>>12048492Still playing Ape Escape. Just did the Boxing minigame on my second try lol. A lot of people seem to struggle with this one; holding down the left stick and rhythmically attacking with the right stick got me past it.
Gran Turismo 4 on the Steam Deck is a blast.>turn off Hardware Download mode>turn off v sync
for reference in case any gradpa's and uncles stop by this thread.
>>12052440>1999I guess this is why I feel out of place when talking with both millennials and zoomers.
>>12052464you got the zillennials at least to back you up.
>>12052440How about getting an actual personality?
>>12052492why are you so bitter
>>12052492>thinks a retard born in 1981 and a completely different retard born 1996 grew up in the exact same world.tell us you are a millennial without telling us you are one.
