2011 represented a unique year for me. It was the first time I got to see in a new year with my soulmate (I also get to see out the year with her too). I mention this because I believe it’s made me a less cynical person overall, games I may have dismissed a year or two ago became some of my favourites this time around.
2011 also represents the year I fell in love with Nintendo again. Thanks to getting a new Wii and 3DS towards the end of the year, I’ve had a chance to play a load of games I’d missed out on before. I was a Nintendo fanboy as a child and teenager and it was only when the 360 came around that I abandoned that path and became a fan of what I thought were more “adult” or “mature” games. I’ve since recaptured my love for the Nintendo way of doing things. 2012 can now be the year where I embrace more of what I love – I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Now how about we take a look at my Top Ten list?
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.
