Games That Weren't as Good as You Recall

[O³ (O cubed)]

So after many years of it not being available, rebought Scott Pilgrim. I played the shyt outta this game on my 360, bought the DLC and was happy.


Then I played it yesterday. I forgot how grindy it was to get your stats up. Or how they put all the best gear on the first level but cant get it unless you grind over and over again.

Is there a game that you enjoyed back then but can't play now?

Agreed on scott pilgram. You had to beat the shyt outa everybody

Game would have been much better if enemies didn’t take so much damage.

50 Cent Bulletproof was my favorite game as a kid, I could maybe do like 5 minutes of it when I tried it again a few years back

Soundtrack which is just all the original G-Unit stuff still goes though

Tbh, I can't really think of any atm that I feel this way about with games that I've actually experienced. However, on the flip side, I have a few games that I had big interest in back in the day, but never got the chance play until recently that upon playing them, I feel like I didn't miss anything or that they're just not tolerable now. A couple to name would be :

Rise of the Kasai
Ashura's Wrath

Yeah, all those old 3d Mario games fit this bill as well, tho I wasn't even that interested in most of them then. Same with the older 3D Zeldas.

Going back to most shooters is usually really jarring asl.

That's the one genre in gaming that is always rapidly evolving to where the most garbage shooters today play significantly better than the most classic shooters.
