Yeah, I’d actually only ever played VII and VIII before recently.
Now I seem to be going backwards through the series. Played VII, VI, and now V, where I currently find myself doing some rather boring endgame grinding to try to defeat the final boss battle.
Oldest this year.
But maybe up until this year, or in the last 5 years would have been the more interesting question.
Yeah, Myst was definitely something else when it came out
Yeah, playing Resident Evil for the first time was something incredibly atmospheric and special. I rented it from Blockbuster and knew straight away I had to buy it.
Before it released my friend and I used to speed-run the Resident Evil 2 demo which let you play as far as you could get into the full game, but with an 8 minute time limit.
Yeah, I very nearly added seeing the Mortal Kombat arcade to my original post but decided maybe I was writing too much!
I feel the same way about it being a privilege. I missed the earliest part… but even to have lived through the NES and Master System era through to today has been amazing.
Games will continue getting ever more impressive, but nobody again will witness the kind of seismic leaps in what games could accomplish that people saw between the 70s and 2000s.
Just remembered that seeing Doom for the first time is another obvious one. Man that game was incredible when it came out.
All my friends and I used to have Yahoo! email addresses. But for some reason around 2010 almost everyone’s accounts seemed to be getting compromised and sending weird messages around to their contacts… and now I don’t know anyone with a Yahoo!
I never figured out what was going on and why Yahoo in particular seemed so affected by it.
The tiny thumbnail for this looked like a belly button on my phone, had no idea what I was tapping on at first
Probably up next on my retro gaming to-do list!
