My runescape gf convinced me (easily) to drop 42 gold pieces I gathered from killing a tramp a bunch of times. She took the gold, went upstairs and disappeared into thin air. Oh, to be young again, and to feel love's keen sting.

I'm really glad we got more lore about your runescape rabbit hole. Appreciate you.

[@RedGreene]

I randomly found Among Us and realized its potential. I begged people to play it with me so we could record it, saying that the game could do really well on KZbin. They never did. That was a year before the game got picked up by a bunch of SA streamers and blew up.

My fav online experince was Splinter Cell: Double Agent on the 360. They had this amazing multiplayer where half the people are spies and half are guards who have to kill the spies. The spies could do cool shit like break their necks and go into vents, while the guards had awesome weapons. It was all around so enjoyable no matter which side you were on.

Think homie is hitting on a deeper concept overall here. In my 40s and still trying to figure it out, though less and less of that and more of just appreciating learning and discovery. Once you know, you know, the unknown though, always has it's appeal. Existing is wild AF.

I believe that glitch was by making your car very expensive, then call your mechanic to get your car delivered, while being near the car. The mechanic will deliver a copy of your car and you can sell that.

This is so true, you never forget your first FPS game. Especially as games have become more about money and the price tag rather than the experience, it only makes us want to forget everything we know about video games and start over again. I know that video games will never be the same and have really just been getting worse since mid 2010's (so this isn't a new). I just feel a bit worried that this new generation of kids is growing up playing awful and saturated games, not knowing how it used to be like. I make roblox videos for kids but I make my content healthy to give kids a slice of how gaming content SHOULD be. stay epic

[@No0bSlasher]

I had modern warfare 3 when it came out but I rarely could play online because I didn’t have Wi-Fi growing up and had to go to my friends house and only played custom games with my friends and cousins on my one Xbox 360. I also played the campaign but I missed playing with randoms and ranking up my prestige. It wasn’t till bo2 when I can play online and I loved the zombies.

[@mania9222]

red tiger camo in mw2 was the only time i've ever felt alive

[@deadsv2]

GTA V Online, TLOU multiplayer, and COD BO3 zombies are my most cherished gaming memories with friends.

[@junkm0nkey]

One memorable moment I always look back on was back in 2015 where me and a group of school friends played GTA V right after we graduated middle school. We trolled randoms, race and did a bunch of missions and heist all in one night. I do miss those moments but I’m very glad to have experienced them.

[@Psycophish]

Man my life was flipped around. I played a lot of Halo online (because my Dad loves the series and would let me play when my mom was out of town for work), but I played CoD at my buddy's place and would get REAMED

New subscriber here... I've only watched two videos so far, but both have been as if you pretty much took the words right out of my brain, more or less. And what I really especially like is: I don't think you once said, "Don't forget to like and subscribe blah blah blah"... It annoys me no end that we haven't reached the point where every viewer already knows how to like and subscribe, such that no longer should every video feel compelled to "remind" you. Worse yet is "Smash that like button!!"... No, I guarantee you that I will not click the like button, when you tell me to "smash" it. Just on principle I refuse to do it. So it's always refreshing to find the rare channel that doesn't feel the need to remind me of something that virtually every viewer already knows.

[@Abaw]

6:30 You can still play flappy bird if you have an Android device and an APK file of the game.

[@Abaw]

I might as well tell my experiences with these three categories. A game I'll never experience the same way again is OneShot which has to be one of my favorite games in terms of story. If you're interested into playing it don't look up any gameplay of it as every single thing you see about it may ruin the one of a time experience. Another game that falls into this category is Clash Royale. I remember back in elementary school everyone was playing it and if you had a legendary you were the cool kid in class. Good times. A game I'll probably never experience again is Super Mario Bros 35. It was only available for 6 months and it was fun while it lasted. I'll miss it. Something I never got to experience the Wii U and all the online features. I'll likely won't be able to get one before April 2024 when all online features are shut down for good and it kinda hurts to have seen it so many times but never getting to play with it except one time at someone's house.

Gotham City Imposters did something that nearly no other shooter could do: make distinctly unique classes super fun. I don't really remember if it was balanced but gliding or going invisible was amazing.

Club penguin is also a game we won't be able to ever experience again ( at least not in the same way )

MW3 is my favorite cod of all time for its survival game mode. I always go back to playing it and I’m glad it’s playable solo because It’ll never lose its Magic.

[@Raskey7]

[@SolidBren]

MW2 was definitely the talk of the town (world) back when I was a freshman in high school. It was the thing everyone talked about in between classes and on lunch break. For a long while, I'd even have friends over to my house nearly every friday and I'd play the local splitscreen mode with 3 other buddies and have a blast on that. Nobody ever talks about splitscreen, but that was such a blast for me and especially my friends that didn't have the game or system, but still wanted to play it on occasion. Even to this day we will occasionally hang out and play it in person, just like we did when it was brand new. Gotham City Impostors I only played for a bit, but I did play that when it was new with one of my IRL friends. The Xbox 360 version of Minecraft was great because I played that splitscreen with my buddies and we stopped playing that FOR EXACTLY THE SAME REASONS you mentioned in the video. lmao The Super Smash Bros. series and COD games from the late 2000s to early 2010s were/are definitely some of my favorite multiplayer experiences I've ever had. Right now its all about playing fighting games like Blazblue and Guilty Gear, since they have such improved online play and I have friends that I play those with from all over the world.

I remember when good games cost a quarter for 3-5 mins. 10+ minutes if you were good.😎. Skipping about 20--30 years from then, the last game I remember actually waiting for and buying Day One was BattleFront II for PS/2. Totally worth it 😎.

[@electricfishfan7159]

I feel this way towards TF2. Once they altered matchmaking in the jungle-whatever update it killed the gamemode I’d always preferred to play with my dad (sd_doomsday). I’ll never spend hours with the same people in the same lobby playing doomsday again because it’s rarely even on private servers and they’re always empty anyways. I pivoted to playing MVM primarily instead.

[@freecaden]

I miss old games now that I can't expince it

[@alessandrocanale6189]

As a game that you cant experience again i say resistance 2 couse that game had the best coop mode in the history of pve games you could litteraly go with a small army of 18 players against the chimera and you had 3 classes to choose from (soldier=firepower/tank) (medic=healing/revive) (marksman=ammo/sniper) and evry player had a certain role based on their class it was amazing but i cant play it again couse the servers got shut down its a shame

I still love Minecraft. I don't play as much as I used to though. Also I never even heard of the FSP Gotham Batman game. What I really hate though is that everything is becoming digital. It takes up more memory and it doesn't have the cool box art that you can get/ disc art. Even the manuals went downhill. Nintendo used to make some pretty fun manuals and now they don't have it anymore. The last one I had was from super Mario Odyssey. And that's pretty much it for my recent one. And kind of sucks and the only time I really do buy digital if it's on sale over some reason it's only a downloadable game. Sometimes I have the experience or the game comes out in a physical copy and I'm excited. I feel like one day though that's going to stop and everything's going to go digital. Which is unfortunate in my opinion. It was really exciting to go to the store and get it in there. That's my little man if you made it this far and thanks for reading.

For me, the minecraft server situation isn't entirely true. I currently host a server for me and the boys, and the server has died 3 different times, but as long as the server is still up, we just manage to decide that it's not dead for a couple weeks. This repeats of course, but the main problem with a server dying is making it inaccessible after it dies once. So if you keep it open, it should eventually undie momentarily.

I didn't get Internet up untill 2014 so when i did get xbox live for my 360 is during the final months where everyone was transitioning to xbox one and rarely anyone was on the 360 by then. I still enjoyed and made memories on the 360 offline but I will always regret not having xbox live during that era

Best MP memories that spring to my time and drug addled mind: Mass Effect 3 multiplayer co-op: I can spam those maps for DAYS, fuck Banshees lol CERBERUS HARRIER Charge+Nova spamming Human Vanguard 4 Life!!! lol Went back and tried it via gamepass, ME3 MP still works though not in legendary edition. "Acquired" couple hundred million in creds after 30 matches and recalling how asian EA made the credit / gear lootbox grind to push towards microtransaction purchases, game is so old now they don't monitor such activities, all my research showed. Still holds up surprinsingly well though no native PC controller support if that is a deal breaker Match making is hella hit or miss, sometimes buncha teams sometimes ghost town FFXIV: Hands down top-tier legend MMOs of all time, dropped out after Heavensward wrapped up WoW: through til about Cata. What's there to say that hasn't been said. It is what it was for so many reasons. Earth and Beyond: Niche space MMO by Westward Studios of Red Alert fame. EA canned in within 2 yeas of launch, I believe. Controls out of date in '23 but a private community made titanic efforts in bringing the game back from the dead, servers up and playable last I checked earlier this year. They even added new content, wild dedication, worth a look lol Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory - amazing little prototype project level of content. Allies vs Nazi, spam Panzerfaust n00000b. Last I tried it didn't seem to work online, so gone game, me thinks BF 1942 - DC Combat mod: The one that started it all, I really believe. The predecessor of the modern MW age. Being able to run up to a plane, hop in, take off, shoot at dudes on the ground, ghost driver it into a tank parachute down to a bunker run in guns blazing and clear it... from a WW2 setting into a middle east modern US tech level of multiplayer experience? Was unlike anything I'd played up til that point. Was fucking MIND blowing. Never get that feel again, going from old to new like that. Final Fantasy XI Online: Koren asian difficulty but when just making the journey from the Taru starting area to Elven starting forest felt like a major gaming achievement, it had it's own thing going on. Also, LOVED that auction house Plants vs Zombies - Garden Warfare 2: This game is such a fresh take on the multiplayer shooter genre. Mostly PvP focused with some PvE, even today it's worth checking out (also an old EA title that they do not seem to care much about with regards to how currency is acquired in game... this gear grind is REAL egregious as well, in EA microtransaction push fashion So many good games that were, and certainly will be in the future. Tripple A big gaming industry isn't the consumer friendliest place to look for these beautiful experiences with our human brothers and sisters. Give diff titles you might not have thought to, a chance. I've been pleasantly surprised with some single player choices for myself with this challenge. Steam World: Dig 2, Slay the Spire, 7 days 2 die (Minecraft with realistic graphics and zombies), Yakuza 6 Song of Life (sega, sure but great title, spade is a spade), Exo Primal (beat campaign, tough for me to focus enough on in a game. Capcom but they really tried something with this Robosuit vs dino shooter, WORTH A TRY imo), Chivalry 2 zone out hack dudes to death in medieval choatic war, Loop Hero. All games I've vibed with on a nice level, be it through compelling mechanic engagement and gameplay to story and visuals. There's bad but there's positive things too, as a gamer, in 2023 ^_^
