I could list hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of games from the GC/PS2 era and earlier.

You're right, 2D SNES/GBA colorful games tend to age like fine wine because the artstyle is classic and never gets old.

How play on windows 8.1? :(

Do you have a problem making it run on 8.1?

Awesome social media maymay, faggot

Age of Empires 2. Sadly the first one hasn't aged nearly as well, mostly due to pathfinding and a lack of quality of life features such as villagers not autogathering once they finish building a resource drop off point.

I had the fatal string error before and couldn't find a solution. I remember trying (installing and running the game) multiple times on different occasions with each compatibility mode setting and never getting it to work. All I did this time was switch to windows 95 compatibility and Run as Admin and it works. Thanks for your help. I wouldn't have tried again if your post didn't imply someone out the was running it on 8.1.

I was gonna ask if it were the colors looking like shit on 8.1 like that issue with Blizzard games.
That's because it's a known culprit that Explorer causes it.
People had to shut it down so that the color would look normal.

Any of the good 90s FPSs

Pratically the entire SNES, Genesis and GBA libraries aged like fine wine, expecially the Genesis imho.
Let's talk about games that aged like dogshit instead:
I was replaying mafia 1 recently and while the driving mechanics are still fine, the gunplay feels absolutely horrible by today's standards. I also noticed this is a problem for most early 2000s Third Person Shooters.

Good luck finding a non-HD remake version though.

Fucking right. Still play Doom a few times a month (Zandronum multiplayer), it's great.

Is this like metabait, where the bait post is actually the post accusing the other of being bait?

That's the case 95% of the time when bait is thrown around

Too bad Freespace is unplayable without a fucking flight sim hardware.

Dark Souls is the jalapeno casserole of fine dining.

I take it that the HD remakes are shit?
just asking because I was planning to give the games another playthrough

Ace combat

It's perfectly playable with KBM and probably better to play that way too

Maybe if you like having to pick up and move your mouse repeatedly while trying to tail some agile alien bastard.

Damn Far Cry looks comfy
Too bad I don't like FPS

Try 99.99%
No one puts "bait" in their own posts because they actually want to be taken seriously to get the (You)s

Now THAT is some meta-meta-bait. I can't keep up with you kids these days.

I don't know why you're so fascinated by putting "meta" in front of words.

dude posting within this thread is like meta creating a thread

You just meta-meta-created a thread by commenting on how posting within a thread is like creating a thread.

Levels of irony previously unheard of.

Nice cos(meta³ irony) post friendo.

name the games gay

Freespace/2 is perfectly playable and beatable on the hardest difficulty with kb+m. I did it just last year. Same goes for any mod.

Why would you use a KB&M when a flightstick feels so much better to play the game with? What kind of class A pleb are you?

The game has dozens of keybinds, of course i'll use my kb+m. Never owned a flightstick in my life, and probably never will.

The first one's Age of Wonders, it says right there in the filename.
The second one is Call of Duty 1 I think.
The third is Zanzarah as it also says in the filename.
The last is some rainbow six game.

I have always preferred TibSun to Red Alert. Feel free to explain why my preference is wrong.

Let the airforce know that they could get more combat effectiveness out of their pilots by switching. This could be huge!

Kill yourself.

This from the pleb using M&KB to play flight sims. I'm dying.

Its not. Its the right one.
