Counterstrike with my friends at the cafe 20 years ago
Outer Wilds, like it was the first time all over again 🥺
Ah yeah, what a cool game. The DLC was quite different, but I enjoyed that too.
I wish there was an Outer Wilds 2 but you probably couldn't do anything too similar, so I guess what I'm saying is I wish the devs made another game of some sort.
Morrowind! And I will.
Invisible War. The controversial sequel to Deus Ex. The PC port ran like shit on the best PCs, but I have Macs. Xbox might be the best way to play it but it’s still gonna suck. The game itself was good but the tech was complete trash. Literal downgrade in every way from the first one. And yet it was still a gem.
I played it for the first time this year. Finished it in like 5 hours, so can't say it would be worth full price..but I still enjoyed it a lot for what it was.
Deus Ex is my favorite game. This is the only sequel I haven't played.
Honestly you're not missing much. There are good things in Invisible War, but the software was just bad.
The problem with Deus Ex was, they made a great computer game, but it could not run on Xbox and they had to struggle to get it on PS2. They had to basically remake the thing. They developed Invisible War for the Xbox first, PlayStation never (AFAIK), and the PC port was a bad port that suffered the problems of the Xbox version. (This was OG Xbox, not even Xbox 360.)
If you get a chance to play Human Revolution (the third one/reboot/prequel), definitely do so, it's very good. Came out on the 360, but plays well on Series X and PC. Had a yellow tint to everything (like the Underworld films and their blue tint). A Directors Cut came out later removing the yellow tint (though you had the option to bring it back) and integrating the DLC. Great game.
What I liked about Invisible War was, it didn't care what ending you picked in the original. It assumed you picked the Helios ending, but explains that you couldn't contain Helios, so the New Dark Age (destroy the compound) happened anyway, and the Illuminati moved in (so Illuminati ending is canon, but so are the other two). Invisible War's Helios ending is awesome and terrible at the same time. You basically invent the Borg from Star Trek. The Illuminati ending is creepy, but seems like the most reasonable. Another has all the leaders killed, and I also remember an alien invasion. In short, there are no good choices. What was cool was the rival coffee companies and what you learn if you do all of their quests. And the Britney Spears/Taylor Swift chatbot.
And the ugly? In the original, though they never come out and tell you, the human race is a couple generations from extinction as the youngest woman in the Deus Ex universe is in her late teens. There are little boys, but little girls are extinct. They've all grown up. And once the youngest one hits menopause... no more boys will be born either. Invisible War flips this around. Now the only children in the world are female. (And you can still kill children in Invisible War, just like you could in the original.) Humanity is still doomed, but we got a reprieve of maybe a decade when girls were being born who, when they got older, could be used to continue the species. Of course, neither of these things are actually canon to the world of Deus Ex. It's just technical limitations. It would be years before Skyrim would figure out you could use one body for both boys and girls, and just give girls longer hair.
Firewatch.
I replayed it recently after first playing it around 2019 and found it just as enjoyable as the first playthrough.
If you mean go back and play it from scratch, guild wars 2. Fuck. I had so much fun playing it in the beginning.
Guild wars 2 was magical during the beta. It felt so different than anything else at the time
Saints Row 1.
Only one in the series that was strictly a console exclusive. It never left the 360. 😔
If you have an Xbox one or series whatever both sr1 and sr2 are backwards compatible. Locked to 30fps cause of how the emulator used deals with vsync though. Annoying, cause you could disable the vsync on 360 and have the game run at a unstable AF 30-50fps, but it is what it is.
Or run it on a PC via Xenia. Needed a bit of tinkering to get it running back when I tried it a few years ago, but even then the game ran pretty damn well, and didn't have any major issues running at 60fps.
I reply the Starcraft campaigns at least once a year. Love those games
Still want to know why clicking the Terran Academy building plays and agonized scream
That was a weird sound choice
Halo 3. Peak online console, it was all downhill from there.
Halo 3 multiplayer is why to me modern multiplayer always feels like shit.
I'm glad i experienced it but it hurts knowing I physically can't anymore. MCC is missing a lot of what made the online experience what it was sadly, even though it's very good for a lot of the other aspects. It just does not carry the same feeling at all, I don't even really get THAT much of a nostalgia hit from it either.
Trackmania, the improve grind never stops :D
Portal 2 Co-op with someone that never played it could be good. I played it with a lot of friends already, but it still felt like a different experience with each of them.
As of a game I'm currently replaying, Last Command B-Side on Nightmare difficulty. Cleared hardcore difficulty previously, but Nightmare mode doesn't let you play safe.
For a game I cannot replay, Overwatch 1. Overwatch 2 doesn't give the same vibes as OW1, everything feels more clunky to the point I quit it. I didn't really like OW1 that much to begin with, had like 200 hours tops on it; but really felt its absence after OW2.
Headbangers: Rhythm Royale was also another game I really enjoyed that didn't really took off after launch. I still play it at times, but it's entirely bot lobbies and they suck at the game. I miss needing to try hard to win a round on it.
RuneScape, but it also needs to be 2005.
Return of the Obra Dinn.
But I can't.
Because I already know the names and causes of death. 😭
I'm horrible with names, so I could probably play it through again like new, haha
I'm gonna try it again. I brick walked at a certain point like the witness.
I'd like to replay satisfactory but that is like choosing to waste another 300 hours of life lol
Thst game is so incredibly well made
I'm on my 6th attempt to finish the game. I'm further than I've ever been, I just unlocked nuclear power and drones last night but went to bed before I started messing with either.
im only still on my first playthrough and at 300 hours and just finishing a massive 36x8 block of fuel generators running the nitro rocket fuel recipe. i chose this over nuclear because it seems that nuclear is massively inefficient by comparison albeit easier to set up but on the other hand i never have to touch my power again and i have 70kmw at my disposal.
I would like to replay RDR, RDR 2, GTSA, GTA IV. So practically Rockstar Games.
I think SOMA. The first time I played it, I had no clue it was a horror game. It has such great atmosphere. A balance between mystery, adventure and horror, all while keeping it calm and slow.
The non botch version of Oni. The game looked so freaking good! But Microsoft buying out Bungie for Halo made them rush to finish the game.
NBA Street
NFL Street was my jam. Reminded me of playing football with a group of neighborhood kids.
EA Big was top notch
Subnautica
Diablo 2.
I know there is a remake out, I've seen it.
I might do it, but I've fully switched to Linux in the mean time and I don't want to put another 10 years of my life and tens of thousands of hours into it.
At least it would be good value for the money, I guess.
a bunch of us guys working 3rd shift would bring our laptops in for lunch and have raids while we ate. best time of my life.
Wipe my memory and let me play Titanfall 2 for the first time again.
If my memory isn't getting wiped, then give me an opportunity to play Advance Wars 2 again. I know I can just emulate it, but it isn't the same without the no backlight, AA powered Gameboy Advance
Get yourself a no backlight AA powered Gameboy advance then
There was this game by Maxis called Sim Town. It was my first experience with sim games as a kid.
Ever play Sim Tower or Sim Copter? Never really hear about them but I remember them being so fun
For Sim Copter, my favorite was making a city in Sim City, then there was a way to place a military jet that would become a military chopper (usable missiles and all) in Sim Copter. I think either the first or last tile placed of this would become a military chopper.
I also remember practicing landing a helicopter if the fuel ever ran out (pitch forward, then pitch back at the right time to force the rotors to spin up and slow your descent just right to be able to land softly).
Then there was always driving around your own city and just destroying everything in Streets of Sim City.
I didn’t, I did hear about them. I didn’t have much access. I think the next one I ended up playing was sim city.

you can play it in your browser.
might also want to check out Sim Park as well. I enjoyed both.
Ah, the early SIM games were so comforting. Thanks friend.
RPG with an eclectic, humourous storyline.
Boom Boom Rocket
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair
Its an online multi-player Castlevania. So much fun.
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair
Is it like a coop castlevania game then? Sounds great!
Yes it is
I think you can still play it on ps3, ps4 and Xbox anything There's also a community version for pc on the internet.
Never enough players to fill a room though.
Deus Ex
I know there’s a remaster, and I keep hearing that it’s ass. Can anyone confirm?
Disco Elysium. I haven't played the Final Cut version, but I've kept consuming DE related media and fanart. I know why I've been postponing it - lack of free time, and hesitation to re-thread your trip toward something special, and maybe realize it's a bit more trivialized to you now, or just doesn't have the same impact, and you've wasted a good 30-40 hours for getting the same lessons and experiences you already had.
Yet, I'll gladly waste 30-40 hours thinking over it. I'm weird.
An updated version of Clive Barkers Undying
Sonic Rush for me. I remember that game being hella fun, but I could never get friends to race me after a point and I don't have a DS anymore.
Also, shout out to f-zero gx, that I'm pretty sure I still own but I don't have a tv.
To relive anew, Ico on the PS2. I could boot it up right now but it wouldn't be like that first playthrough, my first foray outside of PC and Nintendo.
A lot of RPGs that I just don't have the patience for anymore. Final Fantasy 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, Tactics. Vagrant Story. Breath of Fire. Legend of the Dragoon.
Just replay: all the epic 80 hour RPGs I no longer have time for as an adult. I bought the Final Fantasy Pixel remaster collection, got a bit through FF 1, and decided I just didn't have time. Haven't actually played through them for the first time, but I got both Divinity Original Sin and Baldur's Gate 3 and also only scratched the surface. I haven't even left the intro dungeon in BG3.
Play again for the first time: Any game where discovering the mechanics is the game. Minecraft was the first such experience for me, though the discovery aspect I believe is somewhat unintentional. Mojang just didn't bother including a proper guide or tutorials, so trial and error and/or wiki walking are the norm for new players. I bought the game when it was in beta, back when the player base was made of mostly adults with the means to give a random Swedish guy $20 via PayPal, and I miss the (very relatively) smaller community.
As for games where this self-discovery gameplay loop is intentional, definitely Tunic. I bought the game thinking it was a Zelda clone that could serve as a light-hearted palate cleanser after the bleakness of Hollow Knight and Eldin Ring. Oh, boy was I very, very wrong. I got so obsessed with trying to decipher the in-game writing system that it was effecting my sleep and I had to delete the game for a while. I ended up cheating to get all the manual pages and the good ending, but I replayed it earlier this year via Game Pass and tried to do it again without looking things up. It's not the same as going in blind even three years later but I did manage to get all the pages and solve the related puzzle without a guide, as well as crack the writing system.
Now that I've seen what HBO has done with their terrible Last of Us 2, I want to cleanse my mind by replaying this masterful game!
Control.
So good the first time
You likely mean single player but I would love the cryptic mmos champions online and star trek online to be made in the offline/online playability you see now with things like no mans sky. So they can have events and be online but you don't have to worry about losing your game when the servers shutdown. Oh and it would just be great to have them updated in modern engines.
Simply replay, or "replay as if it were the first time again?"
The latter: Final Fantasy on NES
The former: I never stopped replaying FTL and Into The Breach, and I always end up back on them
yes, I've played ALL the overhaul mods for both ;D
Basically all those super long RPGs I don't have time for.
I
Outer Wilds.
But I can't. It's a game you can only really play once. I keep trying to get the wife to play, so I can live it again through someone else's eyes.
I'm thinking to wait 15 years and then replay it. Maybe I'll have forgotten enough by then.
(I didn't play echoes yet so I still have that going for me)
