What old game(s) are you replaying?

[Matt S]

Apologizes if there is a similar thread, but figured this could be fun to revisit an old game. For myself, I am in Halo mood; as of two weeks ago I've played Halo Anniversay, Halo 3, Halo 4, and now:

Halo 2

Its been almost 9 years since Halo 2 hit. I remember seeing this engine demo and almost freaking out:

When the game hit, concessions were made due to the Original Xbox limitations, so I remember hating Halo 2....lol. Well, having a great time on it - plays great on the 360 and actually find it kinda tough

Aspects I've rediscovered:

*Cortana was bossy in Halo 2 - like drill Sargent bossy!
*Levels were larger than I recalled, and first time to dual wield (missed it in Halo 4)
* Michelle Rodriguez was a marine
* driving parts were pretty awesome....not sure what my problem with this was in 2004
*Awesome opening - like how this felt like the start of the much larger Halo story outside the games

I keep going back to Uncharted, GoW, and Arkham. The whole series, just one after the other!

So many new games this fall that I need to get to, but I manage to make time for Parasite Eve and the God of War PSP games.

I recently picked up a modded XBox with a bunch of old arcade games on it, and have been playing lots of old classics. Joust, Street Fighter 2, Strider, UN Squadron, SMASH TV, Metal Slug, 1943, Final Fight, Moonwalker, etc.

Who needs new games?

Another classic from my childhood - Dragon's Lair - its amazing how long it took them to do a home version that ran as good - and better than that laser disk game 30 years back -

They finally did a Blu ray version couple years ago that's just amazing

Most recently Simon the Sorcerer and Beneath a Steel Sky but I'd never played them before.

A couple of years ago I tried to play my FFVII ps1 game on a 42" TV and it looked absolutely horrendous. It was unplayable at best. I hope Square Enix remakes that game again because at the time, it was one of the best games ever.

I'm still trying to get through last falls "big" games. Currently playing MW3.

I have about 6 or 7 others to finish before I can even think of buying anything new.

Although I will be purchasing Baldurs Gate for both Mac and iPad next week.

I break out chrono trigger, suikoden, legacy of kain, Half-life, from time to time.
