  • One of the best game ever made was Populous.
  • There hasn't been a good two player hack n'slash on console since Champions of Norrath (where's my Torchlight II on console?!).
  • Games these days kind of suck (they are beautiful and intricate, sometimes with meaningful scenarios, but lack of some real fun (when was the last time you saw something like Dungeon Keeper and said "wow, that is new, and I like it"?). The only game I can think of who break this "rule" is Red Dead Redemption (I had fun with a lot of games, but I won't replay GTA V like I replay(ed) Diablo (the first installment) or WipeOut).
  • The best shooter ever made was Unreal Tournament.

Meh, I'm nostalgic.

And now the ones that can angry some people

  • The FF series is a gigantic pile of incredibly steamy shit.
  • Witcher III is an easy to play/easy to please game that's too easy and directive, but disguises itself in a serious game.
  • I don't care the least about scenario in general: I want unadulterated fun. Scenario is rarely a part of it. Some games without any kind of scenario have taken large parts of my life, and I liked it.

Hi everyone,

First post here, so be gentle if I contravene any (obscure or whatever) rule...

Long story short, I re-installed Need for Speed SE (released somewhere between 94 and 97...) in order to get a feeling of the good old Autumn Valley track (which I used to play with my best friend way back when I was a young guy, you know... Dammit... Don't judge me!).

I wonder what was your best time on that track.

I sort of remember that we went under the minute, but I sincerely can't see how. I'm currently (after two days of moderate to semi-monomaniac playing) at 1'18''6 and I see how I could cut a few seconds here and there, but frankly, going under 1'10'' seems barely possible (but to be honest we played daily for months, so who knows).

I've seen some things on YouTube, but nothing I won't be able to do tomorrow...

Is there some old souls around there who remember (preferably with tears in their eyes) what was their best time on that track and with which car?

Thanks and best regards,

SJ
