What is the last OLD game you beat (2007 or before)?

I beat Vagrant Story and Half-Life in 2014. I can't remember any other old games I beat in recent memory lol. How about you, SW? Do you bother playing old games?

2007 is old?

I thought Halo 3 came out just a few years ago?!?!?!

I beat Ys II on PC most recently.

More recently I tried playing Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, but the game is trash so I didn't care to finish it. I also started up Dawn of War a couple days ago.

Earlier in this year I beat Doom 1 & 2, Dungeon Siege, FEAR + expansions, and FarCry 1 among others.

It doesn't really matter to me that a game is old if the game is interesting to me. It seems like an odd mindset to have to not play old games. It's like saying I don't watch old movies, or listen to old music.

like a week ago. FEAR, Silent Hill 2, and Halo: Combat Evolved. Playing Chrono Trigger right now. In fact a good chunk of my games beaten this year easily predate 2007.

I replayed FEAR and soldier of fortune 2 this year. both are still excellent. especially FEAR which is better than 90% of FPS of today and still has best combat and AI ever in history.

So crysis is old now? I must be getting old lol.

But the last old game I played must have been dawn of war, and that is quite some time ago as well, probably mid 2015. bought it on a sale of course, played it for a couple of hours.

The last old game I beat? I can't really remember, probably crysis 1 somewhere in 2012

I finished TimeSplitters 2 about 2 weeks ago and Terranigma a month ago. I'm playing through the Kingdom Hearts HD Remix so I'd say that counts too.

I very very recently (last week) beat the original Devil May Cry. Granted, it was in the HD collection, but it still counts because it's from 2001. I have incredibly mixed feelings about it. On the one hand the combat and controls are air tight and honestly hold up really well. It's not as in depth as Bayonetta's combat, but still really great. On the other, the camera threatened to ruin the entire thing for me. I know it was made with the RE engine and started off as an RE game, but the camera simply does not work for this kind of game. It works for the slow pace of RE, but not for the lightning fast pace of DMC. Playing through the second one now.

Also recently beat Dragon Quest VII on the 3DS if that counts. I know it's a remake, but it retains a lot of the original version.

Save yourself from this madness, Devil May Cry 2 is absolutely not worth a playthrough. They messed up the most basic shit that DMC1 got right.

I beat timesplitters2 two weeks ago

I beat Sonic 3 & Knuckles, a.k.a the G.O.A.T of platformers, earlier this week for the millionth time.

I play Quake 2, Bioshock, Crysis, and Warhead SP campaigns start to finish at least once a year. The last three are a permanent fixture on the laptop. Quake 2 is my lone netbook game.

I beat Persona 1 a while ago

• System Shock
• Quake
• Quake 2
• Daggerfall

007 The World is Not Enough on the N64 (it as amazing)

Beat this three days ago

Beat this yesterday

in the process of completing this currently

@jg4xchamp: That's what I keep hearing. I also hear the third is the best one. True or no?

I beat Super Castlevania IV on Halloween. Playing an old-school Castlevania game on Halloween is a yearly tradition for me.

The last OLD game I beat was Metal Gear Solid 2 HD edition if that counts. Right now I'm playing Halo 1 on heroic, can't even imagine legendary.

NLFO2

Doom64 I played through it with the ButalDoom mod last week :')

Overlord

Age of Mythology and Rise of Nations.

My partner and I recently did all the Halos (I suppose the first 2 only count)

I picked up the Valve bundle on Steam ages ago, so will do the Half Life games again, purely because they are that good

Trails in the Sky FC

Beat Oni on PC this year

4's custom combos are better, and I think 1 has better enemies+atmosphere, but as a complete package yeah 3 is a start to finish better game than 1 and 4. Completely trounces 1 in the combat depth department and is more at home being an action game, and doesn't hit nearly the same recycling issues that 4 does, plus Dante is more fleshed out in 3 as a result of them finishing that game. Where as DMC4 is half finished, with you playing the first half backwards as Dante this time.

But Bloody Palace mode and Legendary Dark Knight in DMC4 are the tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiits.

Depends. Do remasters qualify?

I beat the PS4 ports FFVII and Grim Fandango earlier this year (the latter was my first playthrough...and last).

I did also platinum GTA3 and Vice City when they released last year. But most often I don't replay older games in any frequency.

I still play C&C: Generals. Here about to finish the China campaign.

Going to play through that again before the end of the year - like I always do :)

@jun_aka_pekto:

Love that game.one of my fav games.

Diablo 2

Super Stardust HD (PS3). PlayStation Plus. Great game.

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy (2003) back in August. I was having an inexplicable craving for Star Wars games at the time.

Civilization IV.

The original Mega Man via The Mega Man Legacy Collection. Before that, I beat Double Dragon for the original Game Boy.

I just replayed FEAR and completed it for the first time. It's such an underrated game and holds up today in both horror and FPS.

Before that, I completed Shogun TW for like the millionth time

Emperor: Battle For Dune.

It's like a C & C Generals beta but has the FMV charm and good unit design.

Hard to remember what happened nearly 10 years ago, but I'm willing to estimate it was Resident Evil 4. Great memories.

I recently beat "Clive Barker's Jericho" and I really liked it. The game runs perfectly on W10, still looks great graphic-wise, and it works like a charm with the Xbox One controller.

(I don't understand why it was despised by some people)

Most recently, the original Doom, the XBLA port made available via XB1 BC.

Replayed the succulent Grim Fandango, free on PS4. Still hate "adventure" (how is hauling a mountain of garbage around to rub on objects an adventure?) game tropes and freely used a walkthrough where needed but **** me that game has such perfect style, graphic designs, music, dialogue and characters.

Ocarina of Time of course

Full Throttle

Starlancer

@jg4xchamp: Do the camera issues persist through the series?

Outside of a few scenarios, it gets much better.

Devil May Cry was a game that started as RE4, and the traces of that are still there. DMC3 is what if we did some of the stuff we did in DMC2, but good this time. And 4 is just more of what DMC3 is, but Nero has his own new wrinkles and Dante gets on the fly switching (which is Godly).

So no, I would say DMC1's camera issues are a non-issue in DMC3 and 4.

Pretty sure Adventure is just this mediums way of saying puzzle games. And point and click are pretty sus puzzle games, dope stories though. Almost make this medium acceptable, almost.

MegaMan X and X2, and I'll start and finish X3 before the year ends.

Played Resident Evil 3 over Halloween as well.

I have NES Classic Edition and have beaten Castlevania (using save states lol) and the original Donkey Kong. Also working on Punch Out and Zelda 1.

So to answer your question- yes I think old games are important and still just as fun to play as newer games. This year I've completed about 50 games and almost half have been pre-2007.

Splinter Cell on XBOX. Amazing game and the best version.

Wow, 2007 is considered old? I guess there are many kids on this forum :S

Anyway, I went through all 3 Crash Bandicoot games just a few months ago. Plated FFX HD in March, plated FF7 and Dark Cloud on PS4 in december anmd went through Sonic 3 and Knuckles as Knuckles about a year ago. And those are just the first ones that came to my mind. I played many more "classics".
