StaceyPowers Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Are there series where you started out playing the modern instalments, and then later went back and played the older ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Yes metal gear solid, the first time I ever played a MGS game was Ground zero way back when it first came out, which is actually part of the last MGS game made by Kojima. I liked it so I went back to playing MGS1 and 2. I still cant get my hands on MGS 3 or the psp versions or the ps3 games, and dont really want to buy a ps2 or a psps just to play them. I have played MGS3 but I was way too young to care for it back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 GTA trilogy is an example of that, I played it recently which is the latest franchise series of Rockstar. But I abandoned it to go back playing GTA 5, which is the older edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But GTA trilogy is actually just a remaster of the original games, even though its their latest relase GTA5 is still the latest installment in the series.

You're somewhat right, but to some gamers it's simply the latest installment, because changes were expected in the game from it's older version that was remake.

The Blackangel Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Well, I have to answer this with a couple questions. 1) The first Mega Man game I ever played was Mega Man 3. Considering its age, does that count since I did play MM1 and MM2 later on? 2) Do games you haven't played in years count if you play more recent releases in the franchise? For example, I'm on another run through on Zelda Link To The Past, but haven't played either of the first two in years. Also I have been playing Castlevania Lords Of Shadown on PS3, but haven't played the originals on NES in so long, that I honestly can't remember the last time I played them. If I popped them in today, would that count? kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I recently went back to the older GTA titles now that they have been remastered. I only tried out Vice City and GTA 3 before but had never played San Andreas properly. It was nice being able to play the story now that the modern controls have been implemented for the game, it's a lot easier to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I did with playing Pac-Man as I always drift from playing the new version to the old version from time to time. Also, I did the same thing with playing Need for Speed series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I did that with the Just Cause games. I played 2 first then 3 and 4 and then I played the original game. I like all the games so far, but the series has gotten repetitive. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTA series are quite the charm that most people get on to play them very easily because of how good they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I just remembered one. I played DMC4 before the previous 3. It's a great game. I remember it better than I remember anything about DMC1, 2, or 3. Not sure why. Maybe because it was the first one that I played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember actually buying the game from Walmart with my dad one time and i thought it'd be something I was into, but it wasn't for me. My friend showed off playing it one time though.

Boblee Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Uncharted is another game where the older installment is kind of a catch for me and also some of Need for Speed series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
