Old games you've been playing.

[Jonbahamut]

I keep going back to Neverwinter Nights every few months. There are still loads of people playing it (persistent worlds and such), and quite a few modules still being made in addition to the hundreds (thousands, perhaps?) that are knocking around on the internet.
I did play Final Fantasy IX last week, which was fun. It's definitely my favourite of the series. I'm also trying to get through Temple of Elemental Evil, which I never finished, but it doesn't half have a slow start.

"Join the army they said. See the world, they said...I'd rather be sailing."

"CHOOSE....YOUR LORD."

"Choose me, player."

See, when I say "they just don't make games like they used to", I mean it.

Recently, I've been playing Shadow Warrior.

It's absolutely great. I freaking love Lo Wang.

 

[dystopiaINC]

Just in the past week.
Europa 1400 - The Guild.
Rollercoaster Tycoon.
KOTOR.

Ninjas, ninjas everywhere.

yes kotor for me as well

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

I've be playing through the Thief trilogy. Completed the first game, made a start on The Metal Age.

I also have just completed Ratchet & Clank 3, well I still to get all the bolt and weapons but that is what new game plus is for.

I recently started playing through Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door again, though I'm not sure if that would be considered an old game as it's only eight years old.

I've also been messing around with the original Sonic the Hedgehog when I feel like it. I'm absolutely terrible at the game (I don't think I've ever made it past the Marble Zone lolz), but it's pretty fun regardless.

Poke'mon Emerald on my Gameboy Player...that's right, I get to play Poke'mon on my TV...sorcery.

 

[Frezzato]

I dunno if I can put Mass Effect here, it being only about four years old, but I just finished that game an hour ago, and was blown away. I never understood the game until now, and I put that down to originally buying it on 360 and attempting to play it on a CRT. It was so much better on PC.

In all honesty I've been neglecting my old games. I've got a copy of Super Mario RPG ready to go if I can just put together enough working SNES cords, so hopefully that soon.

I'm so jealous of you right now. I loved the ending to ME1 so much I immediately started another game after the credits ended. I played it five more times after that, and next Tuesday, I intend to get it digital on PSN just to have it again.


On a different note, I was just checking out the story behind Quantum Redshift for the original Xbox on Eurogamer. Damn that game looks good. It looks fast, like Burnout 3 fast. I might have to pick up a used copy.

I was reminded of the original Microprose Magic:the Gathering game from 1997. So I had to dig it back out. Ah, the memories.

 

[Baralak]

I still pop in Sonic 2 on my genesis from time to time, playing as Tails. I also fired up Dragon Warrior 4 not too long ago. I've never played that particular one and so far it's pretty fun actually. I kind of want to attempt Sentinal Worlds 1: Future Magic again but I'm waiting on a friend to ship me PC parts so I can setup another XP machine.

I might dig out Phantasy Star 4 and do an LP of it in the near future. I'm a little concerned about the batteries going out. I suppose I could hunt down a rom for it..

It's on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection on 360 and PS3, in HD

I've been playing:

Ace Attorney series
Neverwinter Nights expansions I haven't gotten to
Max Payne 1 and 2
Sacrifice (I love this game)

This thread makes me feel old. When I think of old games I think of games from the late eighties and then I realize that was over twenty years ago.

 

[Dr.Susse]

I've refound my love for the Ps1.
After chocking my vita with games I found Croc 2, Soul reaver and Saga frontier 2 and have been switching between those.

 

[Savryc]

KotOR 2 with the restored content mod.

Transport Tycoon! (The open version, but still)

 

[Rawne1980]

Manic Miner.

Gotta love old Spectrum games.

 

[Sir Shockwave]

Sacrifice. Although praised highly, it still has all the same flaws as virtually everyone else whose tried RTS from this perspective (Stormrise, Brutal Legend etc, etc)

 

[Altorin]

Super Mario World, Mega man X and 7th Saga

 

[Ice Car]

I suppose the Advance Wars games can be considered old at this point, right? Loved those games, still have them around and I still play them to this day. Sooooo much replay value.

 

[Mr.Philip]

I've been replaying Ocarina of Time, it has a lot more problems than I remember, but it's still pretty good.

I've also been playing Yoshi's Island for the first time, I've almost beaten it, and it's probably my favorite game now.

 

[Mrkillhappy]

I have been playing a lot lately so here are just the best Final Fantasy 6, Silent Hill 2, Ico, Super Mario Bros. 3, and Street Fighter 2.

 

[ActionDan]

The Legacy Of Kain games, but had to skip Soul Reaver 1 since it doesn't agree with PC's it seems =/

We can't have that now can we...

Hope it helps.

Thank for the help, I have the digital version off GOG, and applying those fixes seems to make the game think that I have the CD version and asks for the CD, any other workarounds/fixes that I can use? What seems to happen is that when I first get into Raziel's territory, the first cutscene where the two vampires jump out from behind the arch, the game crashes as soon as that cutscene starts.
