Discover 10 timeless video games from the past that remain absolutely playable today. From Chrono Trigger to DOOM, these classics have aged like fine wine!
Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
Includes savings on The Crew: Motorfest, Resident Evil 4, and much more.
PlayStation - The Concert is a magical musical experience for fans of the brand.
"""There are other promising titles that have dipped into QTE territory and come out better for it, amongst which I would count The Walking Dead episodes. Most of them are, like The Last of Us, character-driven interactive narratives, but none have had the courage to include as large a portion of gameplay as Naughty Dog’s masterpiece."""
"""I caught myself in that moment and realised The Last of Us had done what no other game had managed to do. I was engrossed in this character, his story, and I’d hardly noticed the QTEs that permeated the gameplay at semi-regular intervals because I felt his human desire to survive every dangerous situation."""
very great article and i agree with it 100%
even though TLOU have very very few QTE it still manage to do it right
but you also talked about GOW games ...which i think also one of the few games that done QTE in very awesome way too
I hope upcoming games have on/off QTE option So people like me can enjoy there game without this annoying feature .
it ruined some good games like Farcry 3 - TLOU - Tomb Raider. I hate to be forced doing some move or attack to finish some one I rather do things in my own way .
I don't mind QTE's as long as it's not every 5 minutes, QTE's can get very annoying fast but sometimes I do like mashing buttons like a crazy person.
