because new games and movies are made by incompetent dei hires

As of this comment, I went back to the Sly Cooper games. Also, earlier this year, I went to both Prototypes and Bioshock 1, as well as Bioshock Infinite...man, it feels good. Had to get Wukong, Helldivers 2, Space Marine 2 and Astro Bot though. Those were worth the hype.

Because new games are

Some old favorites I like to revisit in the downtime between new releases: Alien Isolation, Fallout 4, STALKER, Rage, Dead Space 1&2, Doom 3, and Half-Life 2. I also snap up remakes/remasters of old games like the recently released PC versions of System Shock, RDR, and The Thing.

Dude I’m feeling that geriatric “18 and over” club penguin icon every time I open Steam. 90% of my gaming is emulation now, there’s no new games on my steam

The gaming industry sucks right now. They taking too long to get new games out and when they do it's broken, woke, or just not fun. Then the industry is obsessed with live service games, remasters and remakes. It's going to be a long time before we get anything close to the PS2 - PS4 Eras.

Because there is nothing to play lmao

No woke agenda, passionate devolpers instead of activists, goal was to give gamers a good time instead of a lession, passion..

Stellar Blade, Space Marine 2, and Rivals are great because they feel like 10 year old games with a fresh coat of paint. I mean that in the best way possible

these old games are masterpieces. I don't know why developers made games better in the past

I honestly completely agree with AC Unity as I played it at launch and it’s not an overreaction when I say it was riddled with problems and bugs it was genuinely and legitimately unplayable but now a decade later I played the Xbox Series version with the 60fps patch plus all those years of updates and fixes it feels and looks like a new game it’s so much more fun and better to play now

Some great points made in this video! Good job!

i noticed that you mentioned that players have to rush playing game when they come out. I don't understand your point. For example, when assassin's creed mirage came out, i felt no rush to finish it, so i'm confused here.

Original Final Fantasy 7 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Anime remake Final Fantasy 7

whats crazy is i wanted to luv days gone on ps4. been over zombiods since left 4 dead 2 but the idea of days gone seemed perfect to me but on ps4 it wasn't hitting. then later on with the ps5 it ran a locked 60 and it instantly became one of my favorite games this generation. with it running at 60 it felt and played absolutely magnificent. luv it now.

One of my favourite things about this game is watching hordes kill bandits😂

Please, dial back on the memes and the fast editing and all that stuff. It's distracting. Your ideas are enough. Hope you make some more serious, long-form videos. You are very well versed in this. Please don't waste it on "content"! Thanks and good luck! Subscribed. Thanks.

A great game is a great game. When it was made is irrelevant. I think Bethesda kind of nailed it when the FO TV show came out. Instead of trying to push some new rushed FO title, they sold thousands of copies of games that have already been made and paid for.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance coz I just wanna hack-and-slash everything lol

Old games run way better than UE5 releases.

Because they don't hate on white people and men?

Days Gone is amazing!... The challenge Black Friday is my drug of choice!

I always was more of an indie games guy, so I overall rarely play top of the line games. But even older indie games were an amazing experience - recently I discovered Celeste, Ion Fury and A Hat in Time years after their launch and was completely amazed by them

Assassins Creed Unity was my favourite, Loved the 2nd one and having a next gen even co-op AC game was amazing to me, It got soooooo much hate, for years after. Now everyone loves it. The Gaming community are a nightmare, they hate on what's good. it gets changed and makes the games worse. Origins was pretty cool

wwe games have fallen off so hard only get them for content now SVR series is supreme and the last thq wwe series

lmfao i know im getting up there in age because when they said older games i was thinking oblivion old not mgsV old lmao.

The whole world had forgotten that GTA IV existed, as it only sold 5 copies across all platforms. If you ask anyone in the gaming community, they will not remember Everyone assumed that after 3 and its spin offs, that 5 would be the next number, since 4 does not exist in the GTA world, inf act the number four is not mentioned or used at all (notice how your ammo and money counters skip past any digits with 4). This video is truly amazing, the fact that you have exposed there being a fourth game has triggered suppressed memories, the neurons in my brain reconnecting in a f our way pattern.

lmao what was that SM2 box art.

black myth lost to astrobot.. this says everything about current gaming industry.. i myself playing witcher 3 and the forest now.. older games r best.. will buy metro exodus today.

or just ignore hype and go for free and next to free. Epic and GOG regularly give away free games. Amazon gives away a entire library of games every month, along with free books, and access to a streaming service with a prime subscription. plus all of the straight up free games all over the internet. that also are likely on Steam. like Battle For Wesnoth. you may never play the most popular games, but that doesn't mean you won't have a good time. plus that whole cup of coffee argument. say you spent 100 on games a month. plus bought into all the "costs only as much as a cup of coffee" stuff that is tangentially related for another 100 a month. thats 2,400$. around here that's enough to buy a house. plus you don't have to sweat PC upgrades. so that could save your thousands more every single year. possibly allowing you to buy a actually decent house, or whatever it is you all do with money when you actually have any

My fully capable pc can't play the latest games. My PC can't do ray tracing, dlss, frame generation etc. But it surely can handle games released in 2021 and before. So these days I am more into older games.

Personally for me I'm on PS5 but yes highly agree with your take here Just got done Timesplitters Trilogy And Turok 1 & 2 And bought alot of older games for sale too Whats game is that at 6:02 ? 🤔

No woke stuff, less micro transactions, no "pay the price of a kidney for the gold edition" And as you said, mods and less bugs I started playing mafia 2 on my xbox 360 a few days ago and man, It is FUN

I think another part that matters, is the story telling. I feel like older games had better writing. Even when I revisit these games, they just feel idk... like they consume me more from story and design that newer ones. While the new games feel more fun for gameplay and graphics, they lack the personal touch sometimes. To your point though, mods can remake an experience. Often I've picked up a new game thinking "man, I cant wait to see what this is like in a year and what mods standout the most."

I have over 600 hours on AC Odyssey. That game never gets talked about enough. The world is amazing. Play it as Alexios. It is super cheap for people now too. $12 right now, but you can get it for less during a Steam Sale. I think I got if for something like $4.99. Movies are horrible now. Why not just play weeks of games? In fact, that really is what got me back into gaming as an adult. Movies are absolutely wretched and so is TV. Plus, movies are expensive now. For $12, you literally can get 600 hours of enjoyment out of a game.

Want a good cheap combo to play? Play Sniper Elite 2 and then play Zombie Army Trilogy afterwards. You will see the world before and after. Talk about immersive.

Far Cry 3 Far Cry 4 AC Odyssey All the Sniper Elite Games Dying Light 1 Dying Light 2 Max Pain 3 MGSV GTA 4 GTA 5 Hitman Series

I just started this game on dec 23 2024 never heard of it until a few days ago

Simply too good not to have a sequel eventually. I just hope they don't try to reinvent the wheel. I want more of the same. If you have to change something, add more upgrades, and variety for the bikes and weaponry. There should still be be upgrades available when I finish the game. Bring on the next chapter, of this story, I thoroughly enjoyed the first!

It never was underrated bro, cope harder 😂

Literally no one forgot GTA 4 existed 😒

Most older games are better because it's more fun and enjoyable, there's no dlc and most of them aren't remakes or remasters like today.

Now the older games are going to get huge bump in price bc everyone playing them haha

Remember when we used to buy a game and play it immediately without installing a 50 gig update? Wtf happened lmao

I play older games because I want to play things in chronological order of release.

What an utterly-imbecilic video title. GTA4, the brown/grey, boring slogfest of a game, received universal praise and 10/10s from numerous outlets. It's, *by far* the most overrated game of all time.

New Games: unfinished, buggy, woke, TOO FUCKING EXPENSIVE Old Games: the good shit

I have all the assassin creed games
