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.
PlayStation - The Concert is a magical musical experience for fans of the brand.
Two award-winning masterpieces, together in one incredible collection.
As expected. Unless it's going to Xbox or Switch 2, we can stop hearing about these older games now? We can move on to just news about new games?
Man, first year of PS6 is going to be 90% remasters. I'm going to hate it and likely hold off until new games actually get released that I can't play on my PS5.
...20 years later, "you haven't heard the last of us yet!" *releases The Last of Us Retro Collection*
@Christopher
Oof, yeah. I don't think I'm picking up the PS6 until "Pro" comes out 😂
I'm already dreading all the cross generation games and remasters we'll see with the next round of consoles.
lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.
I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.
We can stop hearing about it when they stop re-releasing them I guess.
I reckon the ps6 version will be 8k 240 and I'll still not care.
I miss new games from nd
And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.
speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.
I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”
Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.
This will be the 4th time Sony sells us The Last of Us Part 1.. And the 2nd time on the PS5.
At this point we are at Skyrim in terms of frequency. Skyrim was one per generation. If you exclude VR Skyrim we've now exceeded it
Tlou 1 PS3, 1 PS4 2 ps5
Skyrim 1 ps360 2 PS4/x1/vr 1 ps5/sx
Tlou 4
Skyrim 4
Not quite. Skyrim had:
PS3/360/PC
PS4/X1
VR
Switch
Skyrim Special Edition PC/PS4/X1
Skyrim Special Edition PS5/XSX
Also add skyrim bundles like the one below and all the humble bundles since that's what everyone is doing here

@Chris, LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base. At least Skyrim was able to sell to a wider audience via different platforms.
@darthv72: I don't know why you're telling me that. I only corrected on number of Skyrim re-releases/ports/etc. I didn't say anything else.
@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count
@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.
"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"
Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.
I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.
So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.
@FPS_D3TH
It blows my mind how people do some mental gymnastics to try to cope with a game they like doing the same thing (technically more) they’re complaining about for another game.
RE4 - PS2, GC
RE4 w Motion Controls - Wii
Literally RE4 HD Remaster - Xbox 360, PS3
I’m assuming a port of RE HD - PS4, Xbox One
RE4 Remake - PS5, Xsex
1 Remake and the bunch are Remasters… how, I mean how—Y’know what, it doesn’t matter anymore…
Store says I already own it. I guess it’s just a straight twin-pack. Looks like they added 4 maps to ‘No Return’.
You don't need to buy this to get the maps, marlene and bill. It all got patched in to the game on the 3rd.
Good to know. I’ve watched runs of ‘No Return’ but have yet to try it myself. Soon, soon 😉
Some great games on this list. It's nice to see The Last of Us there too. That's definitely a modern classic. Probably one of the few games I actually enjoyed playing. It even had a solid multiplayer.
Where is Crash Bandicoot? Where is Donkey Kong... love the list but it could go on for agess!!! :)
Kingdom Hearts and Psychonauts would be the top ones on mine.
Half Life 2 is one of the most overrated and boring turds I've ever played. Playing that game felt like my soul was being sucked out.
Out of that list ive only played: Metal Gear, The Last of Us, Zelda: Ocarina of time which i think they should make a remake of. Wouldnt that be awesome?
