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.
Review - I was surprised by the depth of story found in I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, and how adventurous it feels for a game to take it on.
A cult classic is making a comeback as I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream is coming to consoles, after 30 years.
I've seen a playthrough which was good fun, especially for Harlan Ellison's delightfully evil voice work. However it is very much full of old school, obtuse point and click solutions to problems. So could be quite frustrating to play through yourself
