Most of us probably grew up playing video games, some of them we forgot or our gaming system ain’t what it used to be. What games bring you back to the good ol’ days when you didn’t know what politics were and couldn’t be bothered to watch the news bc the new ep of Spongebob is on? For me I have to say the Simpsons Game (PS2), the Billy & Mandy Fighting Game (PS2) DK Country (SNES) and NBA 2k14 (PS3, please whatever Deity is out there bring me back to 2013 so I can cheat in 2k again and make my MyPlayer basically just Michael Jordan 😭) and probably Infamous for PS3, I probably played the first game like 18 times fr. What are your faves?
Quake, C&C, SimCity, and Civilization for me
First ones for each, right?
yup
Glorious! Quake and Civ especially. I remember being so impressed with Civ after seeing it at a neighbor's, that I've started making unit tiles to play at home
Yeah, Civ really sucked me in as a kid, I spent countless hours on it. And Quake was amazing at lan parties, still one of the best FPS games to date in my opinion. It's way more fun than vast majority of FPS that come out today.
oh yeah, civ game mechanic is just so good at keeping your engaged
Quake, Civ 3 and Serious Sam for me. So glad I grew up on PC games
Quake was weird for me to comprehend as a kid, I thought it was Doom and no amount of arguing would tell me otherwise, I was like “it’s not a different game it’s a different level of Doom smh”
We did a lot of lan parties with friends when I was a kid, and we tended to rotate C&C and either Duke 3D or Doom 2. I sucked at both Duke and Doom cause I wasn't as good at strafing while turning. Then Quake came out and I was the first one to realize you could play with the mouse, and it was a game changer. Cause all of a sudden aiming became so much easier. 😄
