Next Gen Im going Retro

[Wools]

And I bet it's not better than either ANARCHY or Bayonetta.

Being in a car crash is better than Anarchy Reigns!

Was told marvellous things about that game on here & Rllmuk & picked it up on its release weekend for ?20. Turned it off after an hour, terrible game. Worst I've played since Shift 2.

This thread reads like a list of the forums grumpy old men.

Maybe once you hit 40 your just start to hate everything.

Nah I'm 41 and loving this gen. It's amazing.

It has been a rather grumpy start to the week.

Would it make you hulk out if you read that SimCity debuted at number 2 in the all formats chart, guaranteeing more games to be online only, even if the servers don't work?

A lot of people on this forum don't like games any more it seems.

I just play what I intrigues me and what I enjoy. I don't consider 'retro' games separate from 'modern' games, they're all just games to me. In the same way that I wouldn't consider a 70s film 'retro' - it's just a film.

[EvilBoris]

At what point does a game become retro anyway?

[Guts]

7 years.

[EvilBoris]

I see, and there was me thinking that when I saw people buying Legends of Wrestling and Extreme G 3 on Gamecube in CEX last week, that it was because they were poor!

It turns out they are cool!

[Guts]

Only if they bought them out of irony. Irony is cool, being sincere isn't.

[EvilBoris]

I think they bought them out of the need to spend their actual money on White Lightning.

You mean in a year i'm going to be even more disillusioned? Joy.

Extreme G3 was an okay game really.

[nakamura]

It was an good game.

Where did that come from?

[speedlolita]

Read last page.

If I get burnt by the next gen with always on DRM BS and the like, I'll stay retro and a Steam user from now on. Modern games are more like movies anyway than actual games.
