Silent Hill 3.

That game is still beautiful 13 years later.
Team Silent was a team of wizards, I mourn them often.

It might just be nostalgia goggles, but I think that Rayman 2 still holds up today. The arstyle helps its graphics not look like total crap.

I hope you aren't implying SotC aged well.

That game averages around 9fps
>>
>>344830162
Most good 2D games. These threads make me wonder if people here have played anything older than the PSX.

What's wrong, Anon? Is your AC out?

>>344837426
I played Shadow of the Colossus for the first time, on a PS2, in 2015.

It has aged surprisingly well, although the framerate blows dick.

My niggas.

Starfox 64 is also still insanely fun to this day. I haven't touched Zero but I hear it didn't hit the mark.

Considering its a 14 year old game, this game still looks pretty af.
>>
>>344839107
People really underrate Sunshine, I think it's because most people played it as kids and it was pretty difficult at times. To be fair there are some truly BS parts.

Once the inevitable HD remake rolls around people will appreciate it, and the colors will pop way more.

It just didn't feel like a mario game at the time, the final battle was also VERY forgettable for me.

Plus his brother got a better game beforehand

>>344839107
>that music
>that setting and atmosphere

Love this game
>>
>>344839740
The level design is horrid for the most part minus a few cool worlds. I just like walking around on Yoshi in Delphino Plaza
>>
>>344839107
100% agree.
>>
>>344830162
Hitman 2 is my favourite stealth game and I played it in 2013 if I remember right. Set on hard but not professional the game is hard as hell but doesn't shit on you for the sake of it. The level designs were amazing, combat felt tighter than it ever did in the sequels and it's also weirdly enough one of the best stories around in video games for what it is. It's simple but very sharp and poignant. Music is 11/10 too.

Also Dead Rising is the peak of zombies in video games. The sequels have all missed the mark by making things easier.

>>344830864
Get Earthbound if you've never played an rpg before besides pokemon
otherwise Super Metroid
>>
F ZERO X
Great music, tight controls, ship variance, decent maps, hard.
>>
>>344841581

>Recommending earthbound

It's like you want him to get cancer or something

>>344830864

Pick up super metroid, you wont regret it

>>344831047
