I wanna kick this kid's ass

[shady6]

You're telling me you'd play super nes over 360 or ps3?

Honestly? Yes, i would. Aside from a few unique titles, PS3/360's software library does nothing for me.

Tell me you like Donkey Kong Country.

I would take those three games over anything out today.

Also, Legend of Zelda: Link to the past>>>all other zeldas besides OoT

Oblivion shits on anything to do with zelda, lol. Anything from elder scrolls does. Don't get me wrong, I used to love my superNES and eventually my N64 (007 golden eye fucking champ).. but let's be real here... NONE of those games will EVER come close to nextgen software.

GTA IV, for example, has more gameplay combined with graphics than all superNES games combined (exaggerating, of course.. but you get the picture). & that's just one game. I'ts ok to be nastolgic & all that, but you honestly can't compare the gameplay and graphics of today's games to those even 5 years ago, let alone 10+



EDIT: he said all other ZELDAS, lol. I thought he said RPGS... my bad, but what i said still stands true

Gameplay of retro games is almost always at LEAST equal to today's and very rarely worse and who gives a shit about graphics

(I smell a graphics whore )

[shady6]

are you kidding me? lol. You cant be serious... You're telling me even THPS1 (regular playstation) is as good as EA SKATE? or that any of the multiple formula one racing series games for NES/SEGA/SuperNES are as good as the NFS series out today? or even the latest Gran Turismo? are you highhhhhhhhhh? to even try comparing the two is incomprehensible.

Name me 1 game pre-2005 where it's gameplay is even CLOSE to today's games. You won't find one. Even Zelda (Probably the best game play of ANY game pre-next gen) won't compete with today's RPGs. Oblivion blows it away.


It's evolution in gaming. Comparing the two is like comparing the complexity of a 1980's hiphop artist to a Canibus or Immortal technique.

lulz

THPS2>>>THPS1, but hell yes I would play that over skate.

Skate's controls take too much getting used to. THPS are classics, and DEFINITELY still playable.

also, Zelda OoT uses practically the EXACT same mechanics as Twilight Princess and Wind Waker. Seriously, the controls don't change much.

And telling me the Oblivion blows it all away is horse shit. Btw, racing is racing is racing is racing. Really, you just drive with different graphics and different controllers. We've had boost since SNES, i believe, and we obviously still do. NFS pretty much INVENTED the idea of police chases in games with Hot Pursuit which is anything BUT a current-gen game.

Everything new these days (not just videogames, most notably music of all genres as well) is fine and dandy and still a hell-of-a-lot of fun to play, but NOOOTHING will ever compare to the original mechanics today's games were built on. No. Thing.

Same goes for music.If anyone here knows anything about Metallica, I'd take Master of Puppets over Load/ReLoad/St Anger anyday.

tl;dr

To give a simple answer: i don't care if they are equal to today's games.
They are still fun and much more unique than the floods of FPS's that PS3 and 360 feature so prominently.

Now, i don't need essays from some guy who clearly bums this kind of thing. You're acting just like the guy Chet posted about. No, that isn't "you disagree with me so you're wrong", just the way you and all people like you are always trying to shove your beliefs down our throats.

I don't give a shit how great the graphics are on the latest World War II game; i would much rather play a game that was original in what it did, and did it first.

I don't give a shit if the technology is much more advanced nowadays; it's unimportant. Old games are still enjoyable; nobody was moaning about how "this game is crap because in 10 years things will be much better.". What, when the PS4 comes out you're gonna claim the PS2 was shite?

Not to say all current-gen games are shit; i can name many that are great. Just the majority of them are not on PS3 or 360. You can call me a Nintendo fanboy if you want, but it's a simple fact that my kind of games (ie, unique) are on the Wii. If i was a Nintendo fanboy, i'd be doing what you're doing but replacing "PS3" with "Wii"

good question

[Kez]

whys this thread here and not in gaming section?

Because originally it was just a thread about some fucktard we were laughing at until Siinide
decided to turn it into "OMG PS3 FTW "

[Tash8]

both suck, i dont play video games


another words, i can't afford them

[Kez]

how am i shoving my beliefs down your throat? because you're being all nostalgic and shit? lol. Get real dude. By your logic, a ford model-T is better than a Ferrarri F150........ Righhhhhhhhhhhhhht....


You need a better argument than that. Today's games > any games that came before them, plain and simple. Both of you seem like you're just trying to be nonconformists without any actual thought involved. It's not my beliefs that I'm backing up, it's the truth. It's evolution, get used to it.


and zelda will NEVER touch elder scrolls.

I need a better argument, even though your only argument is "Today's games > any games that came before them"? Lol.

Well if you think it seems that way, it's not.

I don't care if you think new games are better; 90% of them are just repetitive FPS games. If that's your thing, then fine, shoot people until the day it finally turns boring. Of course i'm not denying today's games look better and have more technology; that would be foolish. In technical terms, today's games are indeed better than old games. But how about you turn away from your precious graphics card and appreciate some innovation for a change?

I'm not even claiming it's just the old games that are good; many Wii games are still innovative even today, especially in a world populated by Call of Duty sequels and RPGs.

[Kez]

What I'm gathering is you can't afford them... Am I close with this assumption? Cos only a fool, or a really ignorant person would attempt to argue the point that you're trying to argue.

Sorry, running across a 2-dimentional screen, jumping up and down to hit coins/boxes/ whatever else, is NOT innovative. I could easily breakdown all the components of each system and logically explain why today's games are better, but what's the point? Anyone who has played a 360 or ps3 already knows they are.

Please elaborate on which games you think have such great and innovative gameplay that they're so much better than today's games; I'd really love to hear your choices. & I guarantee for every choice you post I'll post 2 or more that surpass it in both gameplay + graphics. Honestly, this argument is useless on your part. It's your own opinion that older games were better, but it's a very biased and not-so-well thought out opinion.



EDIT: I just saw where some one said they'd play tonyhawk over skate...... LOL. Because of the controls? you guys are way too simplistic.

tl;dr

You're right about one thing; the argument being pointless.

It doesn't matter what i say; i've realised it's not like people like you ever change your opinion.

People like you will probably use "oh, he's lost so he's backing out"; go ahead and feel free to think that.

I've given up, so you can go off and play HAZE or some similar gay shit. Just don't try and force your fucktarded $599 console down other peoples' throats, and they won't bother with you either.

I also forgot to mention; maybe some old games aren't that innovative; but at least it was something original; all this FPS shit that's being done all the fucking time on PS3 and 360 nowadays was done on the PS1 and N64, just all they've done is improved the graphics and recently added online play.

Different title, same shit

/end (though if you respond i'll probably end up responding out of sheer need to respond)

[Kez]

You're attitude is like you're some retro-game-crusader out to save the name of all prehistoric game consoles, lmao. Just let them die. No one gives a shit about them anymore.

As for "trying to force my fucktarded $599 console down your throat"-- are you stupid? I'm simply kicking knowledge to the obviously ill-informed, uneducated. My statements have been based on facts, while yours are merely biased opinions. Also, I don't understand where you're trying to go with the FPS argument.. No one even mentioned FPS games until you did. I'm speaking about gameplay/graphics and overall enjoyment of the game(s).

So yes, I will take my $500 GFX card and I WILL play my high-end next-gen games and I WILL enjoy myself while doing so.

Well aren't you a nice Internet Sozard

You're right, i can't afford a PS3. Though that might have something to do with it's ungodly price tag.

Of course none of us think that the retro-consoles compare to nowaday's consoles. Just it's a tad ignorant for you to say everything that's not this era should be forgotten. I mean, come on.

That's the only thing. There's no denying the new consoles are improvements over old ones, but you can't seriously just want to forget them all because they're old. And sure, i hate FPS games, but i'm not some nazi who expects everyone to play what i like. Just your attitude is pretty bad.

As I said in the beginning: I think you're just sour because you can't afford these consoles.

Feel free to think that's the reason; i know it's not.

[Tornado]

Ok here's what i'm saying
Newer games you see today, either Racing, RPG's or Shoot Em Ups with high level graphics, online play and a few new innovations..Really, nothing has changed much since PS2/Xbox days if you really think about it...ok they look pretty but what's the real difference? Wha, about £400 for this when i'm having fun with PS2...yeh I can''t afford it, just like the PS2 when that came out but because something is old doesn't make it pointless

[Kez]

Alright, agreed.

[shady6]

"zelda will NEVER touch elder scrolls"

I fuckin lol'd

Think what you will.
