hey guys just woke up from a 7 year coma what'd i miss?
>>254263735
Not a single damn thing.
>>254263735
nothing
Sony ruining the video game industry.
Consoles can now play games at 30 fps 720p.
Wait a second...
>>254263735
Fuck the dreamcast, PS2 was better in every way
>>254263735
Nothing.
Your despair starts now.
Everything is just a little shittier but more technically impressive.
they made a sequel to earthbound.
that's about it.
>>254263878
Microsoft and EA as well
Apes enslaved us all.
Popular video games are now movies
>>254263735
>what'd i miss
The downfall of videogames
>>254264078
Mother 3 was long since released in 2007, dunglord.
Ridley's not in Brawl. Neither is Geno.
You missed a wavepool of shit.
Consider yourself lucky, just pretend video games died seven years ago and go on living a happier life.
MGS4 was pretty cool, but Raiden is now a cyborg ninja who rides a motorcycle with his robot dog sidekick and Snake had a hard life
>>254263735
Go back to sleep anon, you don't want to be awake now...
>>254263735
>2007 was 7 years ago
You can go back to sleep, you woke up too soon.
The only marginally positive thing in that time has been the resurgence of "hard" genres like roguelikes, but even then they've kinda been mangled to hell and back.
FPS games still dominate the multiplayer landscape, with the exception of the resurgence of DOTA.
So everything old is new again.
>>254264460
>just pretend video games died seven years ago
no need to pretend, that really happened
We movies now
Konami sells a demo of their upcoming Metal Gear game for 30 US dollars
>>254263735
Sonic had 2 good games before being mediocre again.
>>254263735
Thanks for the pic OP, I like it.
One of the Ghostbusters died.
OP here, I see they made a new CS, and it's pretty sweet, not that bad!
There's a lot of weird shit there though.
It's more similar to 1.6, source sucked ass.
Life is pretty shit if you're a console gamer.
>>254263735
Your consoles still aren't dead.
Silent Hill is officially dead
Grand Theft Auto 5 was alright.
Nihil novi sub sole.
Chad Warden was a propjet and lead Sony into golden throne.
Xbox crashed and burned due to idiots at helm, RIP.
Nintendo is the same shit as always, zero change.
Ubisoft amd EA are the new devil, Activision just exists,
>>254265161
From what I've read so far they seem like computers you can't maintain yourself.
The whole point of a console was to have your're friends over and play mario kart for 6 hours.
Online play shoulda stayed on PC, if it hadn't devs would have been forced to stay being creative.
>>254263735
Video games died.
The Resident Evil franchise has gotten worse
Nintendo released a handheld with 3D support called the 3DS but it didn't give them enough shekels so they made a version without 3D support called the 2DS instead. Still no Half-Life 3.
Episode 2 has no sequel yet.
Against all odds the PS3 defeated the 360 by a slight edge.
>>254263735
The PS3 actually ended up being better than the 360. I'm not even making it up.
Why were you in a coma?
>>254265448
>mario kart
I have some good news for you, anon...

>dreamcast fanboys
PS4 has nogames
All Dreamcast was was an arcade port machine. Only 2 games worth a damn that werent just arcade games was Shenmue and Code Veronica, the later of which got a superior ps2 port anyway. The controller was utter garbage too. I remember it taking 15 minutes to enter codes in MK Gold due to shitty D-pad.
Every series you ever cared about has been ruined.
>>254265854
Dreamcast was actually breddy gud. All the consoles of the 6th gen were worth owning.
>>254263735
Wii statistically won 7th gen
>>254265925
There were a lot of games you couldn't get anywhere but the arcade and the Dreamcast. But yeah the controller was shit.
>>254263735
Welcome to /v/ - titty threads and console wars
buy a PlayStation Vita whenever you get the chance
>>254265654
>>254265676
which is incredible considering a surprising absence of games
>>254263735
PS3 still has no games.
>>254266197
There are a handful of good exclusives, more than the 360 of course. Multiplats are inferior but we have the PC for that.
Trollface, rageguy etc. have all been defiled and are considered a sin on 4chan.
>2007
Twitch shooters and the internet ruined video games.
>>254266434
>2007 was 7 years ago
>>254263735
>tfw UK: Resistance is dead and never coming back
>probably nobody here ever read it
>>254266653
>tfw i graduated high school in 2007 and haven't done anything meaningful since
i mean, i have a full time job and i recently moved into a house with a bunch of people from bands i like but fuck man
>>254263735
Drop video games as a hobby and never look back, you dont want to know what you missed.
Brawl came out and literally everyone stopped playing after a month and went back to Melee. It was that bad.
>>254263735
Certainly not The Last Guardian.
>>254266653
>People born in 1994 are now 20 years old
everything but nintendo is creatively bankrupt
games are generally worse but still technically better
obama got elected for a second term
pac man is in the new super smash brothers
>>254266990
>i recently moved into a house with a bunch of people from bands i like
are you a groupie?
Megaman died.
![maxresdefault[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/d5ovjdM.jpg "maxresdefault[1].jpg")
>>254267431
and then was born anew
Michael Bay is making a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie, But other than that not much.
>>254267310
well, i guess i was originally. i was a big fan of this band and one of the dudes was looking for a roomie and the rent is cheap and i reached out to him
now we're all bros
>>254263735
Duke nukem forever released. Graphics cards now have in excess of 3 gigs of VRAM.
That's about it.
>>254263735
Massive increase in the number of video game players over the past few years since 2009. Some alright games came out.
Consoles are a rip off but developers are shying away from PC due to piracy, and most developers in general just make mobile games now.
oh yeah, smart phones are much stronger now than they were before, so they can play some alright games.
>>254267854
oh right there's HELLA smart phones now
I don't even remember if those were a thing in 2007 yet, but you should look into those. They're fucking amazing
>>254263735
People unironically think that Raiden from metal gear solid is cooler than Dante now.
His reboot was a complete disaster.
>>254267528
Don't disgrace Megaman like that.
>>254268180
>implying they're not literally he same
>>254265925
LOL WRONG
Space Channel
Blue stinger
Jet grind
That fish game
Sword of the Berzserk
Shenmu
soul caliber
That's off the top of my head.
There was also this survival horror where you played as a chick.
Console's still can't manage 1080p60.
>>254268230
sonic adventure
The worst generation of Consoles in history.
But we have Smartphone technology and Star Trek basically exists now, which is kind of neat.
i hope you didn't like sim city OP
>>254266653
sure was!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElXQWoT0hYg
>>254268230
Dreamcast is cool and all, but having to list Blue stinger and "that fish game" in a short list of good non arcade port is not really a good sign.
Games are insanely easy now
Graphics really haven't gotten that much better at all
Survival Horror is fucking dead, Resident Evil and Silent Hill have actually gotten worse
So many old IPs died
Duke Nukem Forever came out and it was awful
Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes is pretty much the Tanker prologue from MGS2 sold at $20-$40.
>>254268230
>There was also this survival horror where you played as a chick.
Illbleed?
- Valve stopped making video games and now develops malware that forces you to run a client in order to access PC games.
- We've removed primitive notions of "ownership" by pushing people to buy digital-only copies of games at retail price.
- Hobbyists are now considered "artists" and go to conferences where they preach to publishers on how to make triple A games.
- E.A is still shit.
>>254268583
>Duke Nukem Forever came out and it was awful
this would have been the first thing i'd have to know if i had just gotten out of a coma
Starcitizen, a crowdfunded space sim, has almost reached 50 million dollars funding.
You pay for digital starships that you can look at in your hangar, while more hype news are posted almost daily.
It's amazing.
>>254268893
The killing blow to me it feels like was the fact that it was $60 on release, and now you can probably get it for like less than $3 in such a short period of time.
All that fucking hype for nothing.
>>254268502
jesus christ. thats the shit we used to think was funny.
holy fuck.
fucking kill me
>>254267232
>everything but nintendo is creatively bankrupt
>regurgitating games that came out between five years ago
>>254269204
>throwing snowballs at lions
that guy needs to get kicked in the balls
>>254269387
But he just threw them.
>>254269351
Okay New Super Mario Bros I'll give ya but it's almost like you haven't even played anything else they've put out in the last 5 years
>>254269204
the best part is it's saved forever and will never be forgotten
>>254263735
I had sex with your mum and you now have a 5 year old half-black father in law.SJWs runing the industry and PC is still master race
>>254269485
FUCK
>>254263735
One of the three gears of war sequels sucked. You have to guess which.
>>254269524
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze = Donkey Kong Country Returns
Mario Kart 8 = Mario Kart 7
Super Mario 3D World = Super Mario 3D Land
Currently in the works:
Kirby's Rainbow Curse = Kirby's Canvas Curse
Yoshi's Woolly World = Epic Kirby/Yoshi's New Island
Bayonetta 2 = Bayonetta
>>254263735
Niggers and faggots have ruined vidya
I masturbated on my Mom's pillow and she didn't expect a thing. Are you proud of me, Onee-san?
>There's an alternate reality where Dreamcast succeeded.
>GTA III, Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy X all become Sega exclusives.
>2KGames replaces EA Sports as the biggest sports game publisher.
>Sonic's mainstream appeal keeps him free from faggotry while Jak + Daxtar becomes the furfag cult series popular with autistics.
>Shenmue 3.
It could have been beautiful.
>>254270398
>We have to live through a 6th gen with Dreamcast graphics
Ugh
>>254269934
I know this is bait but I don't give a fuck
>Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze = Donkey Kong Country Returns
playable cranky kong, playable dixie kong. One of the best platformers ever made.
>Mario Kart 8 = Mario Kart 7
What the fuck do you expect out of Mario Kart
>Super Mario 3D World = Super Mario 3D Land
Confirmed for having not played it if you honestly think this.
>Kirby's Rainbow Curse = Kirby's Canvas Curse
People have been asking for a new Canvas Curse for YEARS now and it's suddenly a bad thing when they do make one.
>Yoshi's Woolly World = Epic Kirby/Yoshi's New Island
Sequel to a game that came out in fucking 1995 that uses elements of a more recent game. No problem here.
>Bayonetta 2 = Bayonetta
Sequel to one of the best action games of our day and age, raises the stakes and greatly improves upon it's predecessor. By your logic ANY SEQUEL is equal to the game before it.
>>254270398
>being mainstream keeps the series free from faggotry
Hah.
>>254263735
>7 year coma
>Was 2007
>xbox 360/wii/ps3 already out
Nothing i guess. Enjoy your hdmi Wii and your 720/1080p Wii U games.
>>254270571
Dreamcast graphics > PS2 graphics.
I thought you would know this.
>>254270702
I have sales to back up my argument. Gamers don't give a fuck about the nuanced additions. It's just all the same shit we've experienced recently just regurgitated.
>>254270702
This is /v/ we're talking about here, any sequel made by Nintendo is automatically a rehash, no exceptions.
>>254271961
>This
PS2 have built-in interlaced games. The horror.
>>254272134
>implying sales and quality have any correlation
>>254271961
No, just no. The only good thing I can think that is better on the Dreamcast has more progressive scan games, but that makes the framerate tank in a lot of games.
Something like, just thinking off the top of my head, Burnout Revenge looks better than anything the Dreamcast has to offer.
>>254272468
That's unfair, excuse me. Early PS2 titles like Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank look better than almost all Dreamcast games.
>>254267203
>people born in 1996 are now legal adults
That boggles my mind even more.
>people born in 2000 will be freshman in high school this year
>>254272937
Don't worry, nostalgia will keep you from killing yourself from now on.
>>254272937
80's master race here.
>>254271961
I always thought it was just my mind when I thought PS2 games looked dull and washed out, especially compared to DC games. Then I learned about the 4MB and 8MB VRAM difference. Yuck.
>>254273772
I bet you played with composite cables.
Hey guys I just woke up from a 30 year coma, what happened?
>>254274314
Video games, everywhere.
It's beautiful.
