StaceyPowers Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 What are some older games that still don’t feel “dated” when you are playing them? And I don’t just mean that they’ve aged well. I mean also that they still feel like something that might have been made today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Without being remastered? Dead Space for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boblee Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 There are so many of them but I'm just going to mention just few of them. For example, Donkey Kong Classics, Contra, Mario Bros, Final Fantasy 4, 5, and 7, The Punisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I would pick out Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Bloodborne as my two games that still feels like they are new games which I very much enjoy playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I got back to FIFA 19 late last year, only to abandon it again after December Eve, it's been over three months, which it is unopened. I don't care about the game anymore, I care more about racing, I hope to get going with Super-cross 5 racing game soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head_Hunter Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Metal Gear Solid V, have been on my console for some time now, it's not looking old at the moment, it's just like a brand new game to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I would argue that Mass Effect 2 specifically has aged really well. Game came out in 2010 but it still feels really solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game ME - 2, has joined the elite retro games, it's over a decade got it, as such, it ought to enter into retro game list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 It's taking a long while too, time flies, if you drawback, you'll notice that time fast forwarded, and now ME 2 is slowly becoming an old game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Call of duty modern warfare have been around for 11 years, still I don't get tired playing it. And again, Grand Theft San Andreas have been around since 2004, I still play it without feeling weird over the game. Because, it was built masterclass, Rockstar devoted time to make the game looks so real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Been playing a lot of C&C Red Alert 2, Dungeon Keeper and Magic Carpet 2 lately. It's easy to forget how more simple games from can in the day can really suck you in and immerse you in ways a lot of modern games struggle to do.

Darth Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I would have to go for GTA 4. I know it's not a proper "old" game but considering how long ago it was released, it surprisingly still holds up well in terms of the size of the world, the controls, and the graphics. And weirdly, Rockstar did a lot of good things with it that they didn't bother doing with GTA 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
