so are you saying you would rather play a game from this gen rather than a game from the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th 6th or 7th gen?
>>318236687
it depends on the game really.
>>318236687
PSP era is where all the best games are at. Shame almost none of them got localized.

You can clearly see the point where he actually remembers video games because of how much more he writes.

yes, i'd rather play Bloodborne than Barbie's Horse Adventure
>>318241070

You're only looking at the good, Anon.
I fucking hate people like you, honestly.
Tell me you'd play Glover over Smash 4.
Or [obvious bad NES game] over Witcher 3.
>>318241398
I would play Festers Quest over the latest Halo.
>>318241398
i'd rather play ST or Darkstalkers over casual shit like smash desu senpai

No, the SNES did, everything was really fucking muddy with the SNES sound chip because reverb was free so everyone used the fuck out of reverb and nothing had grit like the Genesis sound chip could produce.

Honestly Wii U is doinggoodfor actual gamers but since most of the market is full dudebro Nintendo games aren't selling much so next gen they'll probably go dudebro too to keep up with the competition
>>318233374
>pc games originate in 4th gen

>>318241886
Doesn't matter. Doom and Wolf3D were still concurrent with 3rd gen of consoles.
>>318233374
>used games were cheap as fuck
Because every game was super short and/or fucking garbage
>>318242547
No that's retarded. Wolf3D came out 4 years after the genesis and 5 years after the PC Engine.
>>318242341
>More like gen 6 babbies: the board

There's too many 3rd-5th gen memes here for the average to be a gen 6 babby yet

Gen 2 seriously sucked fucking dick and LITERALLY almost killed videogames.
When you make a chart like this, don't try to show that you're a fanboy of a certain company.
>>318242609
The games had better replay value.
Something today's games lack
>>318243273
What's the worst videogame you've ever played?
>>318242609
>super short
Depends on what you mean by "short."
Fewer levels? Okay. But they took at least 400-500% longer to beat than any modern games. Sure, I can technically finish Castlevania3 or Ninja Gaiden in an hour. But that doesn't mean that it took me an hour to finish the game.
The reality is that it took closer to 50-60 hours per game.
>>318233374
you guys just can't get enough of this bait, huh?
>>318243273
>not having the gen that literally saved gaming #1
baka
>>318242646
Genesis was 3rd gen, skidmark.
>>318243273
The most correct man in this thread. Only thing I'd change is 5 and 6, and move 7 down. Gen7 started the shady fuck shit we get now, and I personally feel the PS1 was stronger than PS2.
>>318243461
>What's the worst videogame you've ever played?
Aquaman for the Nintendo GameCube.
If you look at all aspects of what makes a good game, this is so far in the opposite direction of all of them that it's jarring.
>>318236687
>so are you saying you would rather play a game from this gen
Yes, of course.
Next question?
>>318233374
>N64 only had 4 player coop
>Gamecube sucked
Wew lad
>>318240483
No you weren't. If you think PC games were mathblaster shit until 1996 then you're literally retarded.
>>318243545
>>not having the gen that literally saved gaming #1
I just don't think gen 3, for everything it does right, has just as much diversity as gen 4, but the two are definitely interchangeable depending on preference.
My first console was a collecovision so I swear I have no bias to any company.
>>318243353
>better replay value
>implying adding a score counter and life limit means it's more replayable
Sure thing

Nostalgiafaggot get out, Gamecube remains Nintendo's best system and no amount of SMW or Super Metroid dicksucking will chamge that
>>318243959
You'd be surprised how much a life count does for replayability.
Can you imagine how much more replayability, let's say, Halo, would have with only 3 lives per checkpoint?
But it's not just lives. The difficulty has decreased significantly.
>>318233374
>8th gen
>Nintendo switched back to the core audience
LOL no they didn't
>>318233374
>consolebabbies
Also
>muh difficulty
Rather tired hearing complains about lack of challenge from babbies who don't even platinum their games, because if they did they'd know that games of today are more difficult than ever, except the challenge is not limited to literally memorizing levels (commiting them to muscle memory in more difficult cases) and overcoming the boredom of running through the same levels again and again until you memorize them.
>>318233374
>sandbox rpgs got old very quickly
I absolutely disagree
any RPG, cRPG, openworld sandbox RPG or whatever can work easily if it's done well
I will never ever get tired of games like Morrowind and Gothic
Instead of generations, I like to think of it in decades:
'80s - Arcade and home consoles emerge as interesting novelties. Constant innovation and experimentation.
'90s - Video games and PCs become a fixture of the home as technology evolves in leaps and bounds. Constant innovation and experimentation.
'00s - Controversy and commodification. Experimentation ends as games settle into convention. Censorship emerges.
'10s - Stagnation. Rising budgets causes high profile games to be completely risk averse. This is offset by independent developers who will most likely never cross over into triple A game development.
Overall games are getting slightly better, but not to the point where it's worth talking about.
1990s had Super Mario 64 and Bubsy 3D. 2010s have Arkham City and Sonic Boom.
>>318237272
all of them are shitty rpgs
>>318244325
Lives just make it more tedious. It's just a leftover from arcades designed to keep the player feeding in money, and is legitimate artificial difficulty.
Games on the whole have been getting easier, I agree.
>>318244460
you faggots are retarded
this is exactly like movie industry, except for movie industry has to be even more risk aware and 90% of new big releases are sequels and reboots now
nothing to see here

>>318233374
They aren't. You are just getting older.
You are just becoming your father and his father before him. You don't/can't understand why things are happening with gaming now so you hate them cause they are different then what you are used to.
>>318244751
my point is that you are witnessing industry becoming big, naturally majority of big releases will become shit and sometimes there will be a miracle big release or a very good indie out there
there is literally nothing to complain or be surprised about unless you complain about aids after going to fucking bug chasers party and getting fucked in the ass
this happening to the industry was to be expected
>>318233374
>gamecube

Fucker I grew up with Nintendo in the 80's and I think the gamecube is one of the most solid consoles to ever exist.
>The rest of your opinions
Like you're right about a lotta shit, but gaming went completely downhill in the 7th generation because of 360 and Wii. but there's so much bait in there to draw in replies, guess you got me faggot. You still suck dicks.
>>318241398
Tell me you'd play Sonic Boom over Sonic 3.
Tell me you'd play Yoshy's Woolly World over Yoshi's Island.
You see - my cherrypicking makes a bit more sense... and yes - I WOULD play DKC over Tropical Freeze.

ITT: We hate videogames.
As someone who grew up with SNES and Sega (I'm 25 now), if we saw today's videogames we'd jizz all over ourselves, admit it. Most thing that we considered good about videogames back then we imagined for ourselves, because the games were simplistic as fuck.
Since the PS2 games entered a new era of awesomeness and you all just forgot how to have fun and instead nitpick every little detail just to ruin the enjoyment for yourselves.
Tell me, would you prefer a NES Ninja Gaiden over Ninja Gaiden 2? If so, you're just a nostalgia faggot.
>>318233374
great thread op
/v/ is a little worse because of you
It's the golden age of gaming now with games like
Gone home
Life is Strange
Undertale
Her Story
Dragon Age Inquisition
Assassin's Creed Syndicate
All these gay characters and strong non sexualized women and furry bait, what more could you want. It's got /v/ salivating that's for sure

Also a gen 4 faggot.
Also 25.
I don't want to argue with you, brethren.
And I agree to some extent, the pessemism is somewhat unwarrented. Games are still fun.
But brah, c'mon now. Where's the difficulty? Where's the replayability?
This over-emphasis on cinematic shit and season passes is pretty cancerous imo.

Hey!
Mathblaster was good.
I had the one where the Orange goo alien captured the little robot and you has to solve math equations to get him back.
The third set of levels had flying enemies with huge red lips that kissed you.
The game even had multiple endings. Pretty sure one was baseball theme while another had the villain's parents showing up and taking the villain home.
