Been playing old favorites and feeling nostalgic. Some games hold up, some really really don't.

Classic answer that's true for me, Zelda Ocarina of Time and Super Mario World. Just straight up simple fun for both of them.

Currently I've been replaying Assassin's Creed Odyssey and really enjoying myself.

Well, I wish they would recreate Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego for modern computers. I loved playing that so much as a kid. I'd really love to play it again.

Well! I have a treat for you:

and just because it feels wrong to link one without the other:

those do look cool, but the one I played is the one from the 90s. Looks like they renamed it at some point? It was definitely called Where in Time when I played it.

Bioshock and Ocarina of Time for me as well.

I never got around to Bioshock and have always wondered if it would hold up without the nostalgia.

I didn't play it until like...2019. And I loved it.

The Legacy of Kain series will always be my baby. Along with Panzer Dragoon Saga, which sadly basically no one can play legitimately now due to its rarity.

I used to live with someone who basically refused to play any games from before 2010 or so because he couldn't deal with the outdated/blocky graphics, which is such a shame to me. There's such a huge focus now on prettying up and remaking games that haven't even been out that long. I love me some mid-90's polygonal jank.

Just mentioned this up in a different comment thread, but I've been diving back into Guild Wars and I'm surprised how much it holds up. Pure nostalgia and fun.

Ocarina of Time is classic.

Rune Factory Frontier is my number one.
From my Genesis days... Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Cool Spot, Rampart, and Clayfighter. The Sonic Adventure games from the Dreamcast.
Fire Emblem's Tellius games.
Diablo II.
I think Civ V hits in a way Civ VI doesn't, for more recent nostalgic games.

I really like "The Game of Life" board game. I know it's not actually a great game but it's buried DEEP in my lizard brain. Spinner good.

Solitaire, minesweeper, tetris, all golden. I haven't played that many other games long enough to know that I'll love them. I have stayed with The Sims 3 for an awfully long time though.

I used to love Punch Buggy too but there are almost no bugs on the roads anymore because of That Serious Fraud which is a bummer on multiple levels.

Neverwinter Nights will always be this for me.

Funny you mention AC Odyssey because I play the original Assassin's Creed when I get a new gaming computer. I'm a weirdo who prefers the original over any of the others. I have played and continue to play new AC games, but I prefer the original over the RPG it became with Ezio. It would make my decade if they would remaster THAT game instead of AC III.

I do love AC Odyssey though; I actually just finished it in Feb. I played Kassandra basically as if she were me, so ace. I'm thinking of playing it again as Alexios and making him gay all day.

wow so late coming back to this thread but DO play Alexios, his gay scenes with Alkibiades are /chefs kiss so good so worth it.

*shifty eyes*

...Other than the obvious, Final Fantasy IV, Super Metroid... really any of the NES/SNES Zelda games. Sometimes I really miss Asteroids and Missile Command, those were just some good basic fun.

Me and my dad played Missile Command religously when I was little. He introduced me to this gem from 1983 a few years back and we still regularly quote it: https://youtu.be/jPCP7K6WnY8?t=856

None. It's funny how, for the insane amount of games I play I don't feel passion for any of them. In fact, once I am done with them I kind of hate them. I enjoy the thrill while it lasts but once it's over I tend to think "man, fucking finally". I am tempted to say Candy Crush brings joy but that's because it helped my brain rewire itself at its lowest.

Maybe it's the depression of period + bad day talking though. But I hate the gaming community so perhaps the idea of "gaming" leaves a bad aftertaste in my mouth. Besides, I'm unskilled. Hence why I seldom have more good memories than bad ones maybe.

An afterthought: I take that back. Ace Attorney 4

Sonic. The first game (now franchise) I fell in love with and will continue to love.

Final Fantasy VII to a lesser extent, but it was my first RPG. The original clunky square mess not the remake or the franchise spin-offs.

I'm mad that I'm stuck in the middle of the shitty DLC for Odyssey and can't get past it so I can hopefully play better DLC. I just want to run around Greece ffs what is this lineage bullshit and why are you making me fight a boss unarmed...

anyway my answer is Katamari and Suikoden. Alas, I still have to wait a few months for We Love Katamari's re-release, there's only so many times one can re-re-re-roll the Moon before you just can't get any bigger. Thrilled about the Suikoden 1 & 2 remasters too but III and IV are still my favorites and if I had the patience to sit close enough to the TV for the PS2 controller to reach I would replay III right the fuck now.

The Game.

You just lost it, btw.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Game_(mind_game)

DAMN. /shakes fist

nethack - helps that visually at least it was always outdated :-)

Journey. Could play it over and over again.
Also Okami. The painted stylized game design really makes it pretty damn timeless and it's a great game.

-Fire Emblem 7 & 8. Essentially the GBA FE games. I'm replaying them ATM!

-Monkey Island 1 & 2. I replay them every few years. I believe Monkey Island 2 is my most replayed game ever.

-Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. I love punching nazis in the face while solving puzzles!

-Out Of this World (1991). I love this game so much because it hits all my nostalgia buttons. It's probably the first action game I've ever played.

-Tropico 2. Even if the 4th one is the best, I still love playing as a pirate king.

-DOOM. DOOM and its modded versions. I LOVE DOOM SO MUCH. The classic Doom is immortal.
