Couldn't agree more. Goldeneye is without doubt a beloved classic, but it's probably aged about as badly as any game I know with the single analogue stick control and enemy AI that's as dumb as a felled tree. You needed look as far forward as a modern day Battlefield of Call of Duty to see how far the FPS has come since then even Perfect Dark on the same console feels way further ahead. Still, nostalgia is what it is and it hasn't stopped this from happening. This is a game showcased at the PC Gaming Show this year. I mean, I loved Goldeneye as a kid, but come on, guys! You didn't have copy everything right up to it's outdated looks, the AI and give all the guns the same beyond basic reload animation like Goldeneye had. I will admit I like the idea of the function that I assume you use to create your own multiplayer maps, that is cool.
 
 

SHUUT THE FUCK UP!  I don't wanna know about Alien turd philosophy...
 
Let's just get back to the count.
A boring 217.
 
Oh, you made another edit, 218 then. I hate my life.

I'd say GoldenEye on N64.   Don't get me wrong I love and respect the hell out of this game, I played it religiously as a kid.  I was actually something of GoldenEye ace back on in the day.  It presented the first person shooter on a home console in a way that absolutely revolutionised the game for console based shooters.
 
However in this day and age where we have been spoiled with twin sticks it's borderline unplayable now.  The controls by modern standards are incredibly awkward.
 
@DC I'd like to say that I appreciate that your posting topics.  I know you've got a lot on your plate with running the website and dealing with advertiser's and such.  So it's nice that you are taking the time to discuss gaming shit with us filthy peasants!
 

Thanks man 🎉. Check out this aircraft 👀 

Cheers mate🍻

What is one of your favorite games that has aged poorly or is now hard for you to play?

Death threats are never acceptable, I'm not defending that kind of behaviour.
 
With that being said CD Project did make one huge mistake that they have only themselves to blame for that resulted in all the chaos and pressure.  They announced the (Initial) release date a full year ahead.  In this day and age where games are more than complicated, expensive and difficult to produce than ever before that was a ridiculous decision.  Even if we didn't take into COVID pandemic (which did no doubt affect production and was beyond their control) it's incompressible to think you predict the progress of production 12 months ahead.  But of course you gotta get those pre-orders in and they completely took advantage of the good will they established with their earlier releases.
 
If only they had waited to announce the release date until they were confident it was almost ready.  They would have taken the time they needed, announced it a few months before release with my maybe one forgivable delay, two at most and that whole entire shitstorm would never have happened.
 
I'm sure I've said it before but I'll it again.  The issue is not delays, it's announcing to early.  Thankfully I think most devs/publishers have now realized that and are way more cautious when it comes to release date announcements.

Basically a clickbaity video explaining you how to reset your console and how to upgrade to an SSD.
There are much better sources for that, so if you're looking to upgrade your PS4 to an SSD, check out these links:

I love these movies, despite the fact I didn't exactly grow up with them.  I favour the first and third movies myself, I love the second as well but I just it retread the same notes as the first a little to much.
 
I only really became a fan later in life and only recently did I discover some interesting facts about them.  For example, the first movie released in theatres in America the literal day I was born!

No smoking please 😂 

Some of the male sopranos I've heard have been able to hit notes and sounds that most could never dream of. For example Andrew de Leon is one of the most amazing sopranos I've ever heard. Also with women being basses, I can definitely offer an example of that with 3 simple words: Alyssa White-Gluz.
Also I have a voice deep enough that I've been called "sir" on the god damn phone.
🤬

I'm going to bring this up again because the past few weeks i've been experiencing the dark side of gaming aka fortnite first hand and no i diden't play it myself. 
I was going to post this in @kingpotato is it wise to spend on free to play thread but you locked it and probably for good reason because it was a cesspool.
Why i'm bringing this up again because i have to change my oppinion and i'm man enough to admit that i've been wrong.I've been blinded by just bargain hunting and sales for mostly single player games and how long they take to complete vs how long a game from 25 years ago last as argument. So yeah @Shagger you're right and you know the past few weeks have opened my eyes completly if you care to read a little longer i'll explain below :
The past two saturday afternoons i sat down with my girlfriend her 10 year old son. Who needless to say is addicted to fortnite, i'll admit i know nothing about fortnite other then that it's free to play and that it's pretty much everywhere. The game looks fine and all, it's not something i would play personally but taste differ, i just wanted to know more about how far this whole free to play thing goes, what better way to watch a kid play and ask some stuff along the way.
Now i don't know if this is the case with every kid but having these rare skins is like a sign of wealth aka feeling better then a kid who doesen't play as a rare paid skin and that disgusts me. The fact that my gf her son was called out by his "friends" for having a socalled louzy skin that he has been using for months made me  pissed. It's like these skins are more important then the game itself.
You know kids can be really harsh for eachother, we have all been there. I obviously tried to cheer him up but you know the kid has been trough some harsh times, lost his dad when he was 4 and is pretty much raised alone by my girlfriend for the past 6 years. I felt bad for him and In all my stupidity i said fuck let's one up on your friends and tell me what skin do you  want the most, fucking 20 bucks in v-bucks or whatever it's called for a cosmetic skin. The little dude was chuffed to bits and i want to be on his good side if i want this relationship to succeed. Obviously it only costed me 20 bucks the be the socalled most awesome person ever in his oppinion but to me it felt like selling my soul to the devil. 
And that is why i changed my oppinion, could have been phrased  a little shorter but you know can't leave the details out.
 
 

The very best one for me among the game's franchise would be Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. The gameplay, graphics and just about everything in the game was a lot better than what the one's have to offer. 

I think the idea that certain game genres shouldn't exist on certain platforms in this day and age is ridiculous.  Regardless of what control scheme you preffer for whatever gamer whether it be controller, mouse & keyboard, racing wheel or whatever they can and often do work on PC and consoles.  Yeah, I have my own personal preference's to but I don't understand why people throw such a god damn hissy fit about what other people use to play the games that they paid for.

I see the point if you wanted to "upgrade" to a better device, but the OP was talking changing a controller for purely aesthetic reasons.  It's fine if you wanna do that but I just think it's odd.
 
I guess I think of peripherals like gaming controllers as a purely functional things and don't really care that much for aesthetics.  I suppose some do and that's fine, it's just not me.

I don't think that's the issue so much as that certain demographics of actors may have been deliberately overlooked for parts in the past in favour of casting actors who may have been more acceptable to the normative culture. I think it's more about just not doing that anymore. 
Plus, I do think LGBTQAI+ actors sometimes may like taking parts that help them share their stories with the world and reach out to others in the community who may be looking for inspiration or visibility.
I certainly don't complain about the talented Jennifer Hale being cast as Krem in DAI--so far as I know, a cis woman playing a trans man. But I was thrilled to see Ian Alexander cast as Lev in TLOU II.

I have to agree - there are thousands of voice actors who have voiced as the opposite sex in numerous games and other media so I don't know why it should be a big issue. My rule of thumb is that if someone's good enough to play the role, give it to them - end of.

I was on another forum once and somone there tried to explain Kingdom Hearts... and my brain started to melt from the heat!  It seems weird say that a franchise with characters from Disney children's films is more complicated than the Saturn V Rocket that took man to the moon, but it totally is!

NEVER!!!!!!!!!!
 
My bloodlust will never be satisfied!

There's the aforementioned Ian Alexander, another I know of is August Aiden Black who played Tyler Ronan in Tel Me Why.
 
There's also Elliot Page who played Jodie in Beyond Two Souls (pre-transition) and there's a couple of trans characters in small roles in Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West but I don't know if they are voiced by trans actors.

Looking at it from a different perspective @Crazycrab
Here is my point
There are times when you get bored with your current devices and it's not giving the kind of pleasure and satisfaction you need. Maybe for instance your mobile phone sometimes you just change your mobile phone not because it is bad but because you need an upgrade and the one you are currently using is already becoming 'boring' to you.
And this also happens for your Tv sets ,you might want an upgrade to a more bigger TV with a wider display or some other features not because the old one  is faulty but because you need something different or new for a change
This also goes with controllers for some gamers at some point you just feel the need to get a new controller with more better features than the one you are using maybe because the old one is getting boring and you need something new for a change.
