Rule #1 when playing old games (or old anything) is to put yourself into that time mentality. If you are playing a 2001 game and expecting it to be like a 2024 game, you are in for a bad experience...but then again, YOU ARE GOING IT WRONG!!

Agree. Big part of the fun for me in playing retro games is that I'm essentially getting into a time machine and experiencing what gaming used to be like back then. If you're constantly comparing them to modern games, you lose so much of their charm.

Nah Far Cry 3 is still totally worth it! I played it a couple of years ago and it still holds up. Start here in the FC franchise! It was one hell of a fun ride!

I wouldn’t play the original Kingdom Hearts because on the PS2 version the camera is controlled with the bumper buttons and you can’t skip cutscenes. Other than that adults should absolutely play Kingdom Hearts. Sora is a GOAT, and KH is a textbook action game.

I just 100% goldeneye re-release on Xbox and it brought me way back, such an awesome game with killer level design and difficulty. They literally don’t make games as amazing as this 007 goat

You are a newer member of the "What Culture gaming" channel right? I mean I did not watch the channel so often but I still like the content. The list in this video is interesting. I would not agree with all your picks but I understand. For example "Goldeneye 007" I loved on N64 and a few months back I played it on the Nintendo Switch and I still think it is an amazing game that I will go back once in a while. Together with my younger cousin because he owns a Nintendo Switch and we do play multiplayer sometimes in "Goldeneye 007" and it is fun for a little while :D For other picks like "Donkey Kong 64" I never really played it that much but still to this day I love watching Let's plays of it. I still love all the "Kingdom Hearts" games. I do have all the remasters on PS4. And I will get into FarCry 3 soon because I have the remaster of it on PS4 as well and I never played any FarCry game but I know how popular it is. And my big cousin has the platinum trophy in it and I want it too because once in a while he always asks me if I finally played it :D I will give this video a like :)

I thought 007 made the best of the trident N64 controller. Considering we weren't quite to dual thumbsticks, Rare made it work anyway. It's not great trying to play it now, though. On the other hand, the music is still great, and it holds an important place in console history as being one of the first massive FPS hits for N64 that wasn't a PC port. It solidified that FPS games designed for console were viable, which allowed games like Halo and CoD to later take off.

I recently replayed Uncharted 1, 2, and going through 3 right now and I totally agree with Uncharted 1. 2 is still playable for now

I never played Farcry 3 until like 2 or 3 years ago thought it was pretty good the story by todays standards. However that's not the game I will disagree with as that just might be me. Uncharted 1 is a must in the series. It's still holds up. And graphics are solid enough that's like say don't go back to Resi 4 as the graphics were terrible I know there is a newer version of the game but it still holds up. Uncharted 1 teaches you how Nate meet Elena and for the 4 games that's a large part of the story their relationship. Not playing that will hit you different when Elena almost dies in 2

The soundtrack alone makes Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 worth it. The gameplay and characters make it iconic.

Always loved your videos but lately you’ve been killing it!!!

Perfect Dark 64 is still just the superior version of Goldeneye and still playable

I still play Goldeneye 64 and its multiplayer with my brother when he visits sometimes even including this year (2024). We've been playing that thing (and Turtles in Time) together since we were kids, lol.

I litterly just bought all the Kingdom Hearts on steam because I never played them as a kid, I AM LOVING IT

On Goldeneye (and Perfect Dark), I've always changed it to one of the alternate control layouts, with look on the stick and move on the C-buttons, which made the controls fairly similar to the Turok series (which I played a fair amount of prior to Goldeneye being released). Basically, it makes it so the controls are in reversed hands compared to modern FPS, but it still feels less janky than the default controls.

I'll definitely replay Kingdom Hearts 1. I just replayed it recently and I do have some gripes with the HD update compared to the PS2 version. But overall it's a great game still and plays just as Jen can fun as I remember it. My only issue is that I'm not a big fan of the Final mixes

I actually feel like this list should be sent to developers, so they could make good game

Vast majority of these came out when I was already an adult. Now I'm sad for being old

When Kingdom Hearts was rereleased in HD, I went back to play through it again and ended up giving up in the Deep Jungle/Tarzan lever, getting so hopelessly lost in where to go next that the whole experience just wasn't worth continuing. Not only is it bad narratively, the gameplay stinks too nowadays.

I'm not trying to insinuate anything, but there's probably a very good reason why there are no 2D games on this list... (I'm totally insinuating something)

Honestly kingdom hearts 1 and 2 wouldnt be so bad to go back and play if it wasnt for 3 bellyflopping and making the story just so much more convoluted

Re: Shadow of the Colossus. As someone who never played the game when it came out, I've tried to get into it at least 4 different times, and I just can't. I'm sure a lot of it still holds up, and some clips from the game look pretty cool, but it definitely belongs on this list. Without the nostalgia, it's a really hard sell.

wow..... the first 50s diatribe really speaks volumes on how careful we all have to be now not to hurt anybodys widdle fweelings :-/

As someone who waited for the Steam version and enjoys and enjoys playing the Kingdom Hearts games on PC as an adult, I can savely say that you're very wrong with that one. Waiting for KH4 and Missing Link.

Lol, I just recently bought Lego Island on PS2 again, basically a set of mini games and a bland world to collect stuff. (Not sure why I loved this so much when it released)

Today I tried playing the first Splinter Cell game again and damn has it aged badly, it seemed and looked much better in my memory from when I played it back in 2005-2006 🙊 I really hope they come with the remake soon.

I loved LEGO Studio Backlot. of course the version I played was the demo

I recently completed Shadow of the Colossus using PCSX2

Alright Jess, you had us in the first half ngl 😂😂

Try to go back and play the first 3 Harry Potter games which I played over and over in my childhood but boy oh boy.

My own emtry. Killzone 2. Bought a disc again, pulled out my ps3 about 6 months ago. How did k ever EVER get used to thise controls. Gave me 20 min of nostalgia then i put kt all away.

I expected something like things we missed or didnt understand as children but it is more a video about good game that havent aged that well apparently?

I've always said people shouldn't play Uncharted and Kingdom Hearts, but that's because I've never liked either series. And the substitute for GoldenEye that plays better but is still vintage is Perfect Dark.

Haven't watched the video yet but I agree lol. All those great games I played as a child would remain perfectly in my memory 😂

I will not be shamed for enjoying the cheezy goodness of the original Fantastic 4 movies. Also, i will continue to do my complete yearly run of the entire 4 Uncharted games as i love them all dearly...though i do respect those who dont care as much for the original.

When and listened to the DK rap still slaps. I thank you now because it's going be stuck in my head for the next week.

1. i got into uncharted late, i started with the vita game, then i went back and played all of them. they all still hold up today, yes the first is alittle clunky but that's like saying "don't play any of the older tomb raider games from legends back because they are clunky". 2. DK 64 was a treat to play, i only recently played it and finished it with not much trouble if I'm honest, i even made sure to finish it twice for a 100% playthrough on my second run (king K Rools last boss fight was not hard by the way guys, he goes invisible sure but watch the shadow thats all)

My first uncharted was the 4th game. My first ps4 was the one that was a limited edition with that game and I just decided to pop it in one day annnnd…I got the collection for ps4 a little bit later

Completely disagree on FarCry 3. If anything, that's the game to play. They got the winning formula with this one. And I didn't even touch the sequels since they didn't seem to advance the franchise in any meaningful way.

I remember playing nothing but multiplayer Goldeneye back in the day. I didn't learn there was a campaign until much later... And don't knock the original Shadow of the Colossus; you'll bruise my nostalgia 😊

Jess comping plea's straight out of the gate. This should be a good one.

The first Kingdom Hearts is one of the best video games of all time… I will play it until the day I die

All the KH fans running into the comments with their pitchforks at the ready has me in stitches.

I think the title of this video is misplaced, since I played many of these games as an adult. Shadow of the Colossus is a perfectly fine experience I got to play in 2010 for the first time, many years after it's release, but yeah you might want to plug in your PS2 into a CRT to get a decent image quality for older games.

I would also include the first Witcher game. Much like the Uncharted series on this list, the first Witcher game was still just stretching its legs before hitting its stride in the subsequent entries, especially the combat.

Far Cry 3 has a big red "18" on the box, you shouldn't play it as not an adult. Also it only came out a few years ago

FarCry 3 is still the best FarCry period. The story was fantastic, the characters were great and the Co-op play was so good.

I also play the sims 2 alot! My friend still plays the first one it has its charm and it has more difficulty yeah i think there are reasons to go back

Great to see so many Kingdom Hearts fans. I love all the games. Kingdom Hearts is in my opinion one of those games that you have to experience and not watch someone on KZread doing a lets play.

Just played FC3 for the 1st time last year, top 10 best games ever. Also playing DMC 1 now.

I honestly completely agree with the 007 one when they came out with the remastered one for the Xbox one I downloaded it and it was exactly the same as the old 007 GoldenEye but it was not nearly as good as I remembered

Feel like the non click bait title should be "games you shouldn't play if you have no nostalgia for them". I love Kingdom hearts but if someone ever asked me if they should play it for the first time I'd probably say no because it's a mess of a story and a convoluted story.

American McGee's Alice is unplayable nowadays, mostly because of the controls. Kingdom Hearts 2...yeah, I conveniently lost the PS2 disc after finishing with Mulan's world. The first game, though? Well, it's not bad (and I finished it several times) but I might just leave it in my disc folder at this point. lol Haven't played the original Sims game since my teenage years. However, I still play Sims 2 and have fun using ALL the mods/cheats.

Kingdom Hearts totally still holds up! As long as you don't take the story too seriously its still some of the best hack and slash games ever made

Goldeneye was fun, but the graphics are VERY painful to look at now.

I was just playing golden eye last night

I tried to replay far cry 3. I did find myself getting bored. I hope Ubisoft change their format soon.

I played the GE Remaster for Xbox/Rare Replay and absolutely enjoyed it for what it was. The original though...

You’re Not My Games Supervisor!! 😂

I played far cry three fairly recently and still had fun but one I do agree with is the original uncharted. They definitely need to do something about remastering it or just remaking it

I haven't finished watching this yet, but I tried going back & playing MANHUNT after not playing it for a few years. Very disappointed...LOL. We need a remaster of MANHUNT.

You just don't want to admit most of this list are better than most AAA games nowadays

i dont think far cry 3 is a bad game..i still play it every couple years or so

I played kingdom hearts as an adult as well. I enjoy it. I will probably be dead when kh4 comes out but you know....i still be there. 😅

I’d like to add Silent Hill 2. Freaked me the hell out when I first played it. Tried showing it to a younger family member 7ish years ago, and they were super unimpressed (and so was I, I’m sad to say).

I have some old PS1 disks and PS2 disks and I want to play them on my PS5 but "Im limited by the technology of my time."

Sadly have to agree with Goldeneye 007, (music still rocks though)

I feel like if you haven't played a far cry starting on 4 or 6 is preferable. But if you started on 3 go back and play 2. Having played them all 5 and 6 can feel pretty mind numbing but i could see 6 as being a blast for a new player and 4 is imo the best of the new FC games. But if you played 3 and no others go back and play 2 as it's vastly different and plays very well on modern hardware compared to its original release

I played Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 a couple of years ago, I was 36 then. I enjoyed the first one and thought that maybe I should play all the games, but then I finished the second one and lost all interest in anything else with "Kingdom Hearts" in the title. I liked the gameplay, and LOVED the music, oooh my dog the music is amazing in these games, but... the story... oh the story, it's easily the dumbest one I have seen in 30 years of gaming, and I don't want anymore of it haha

Radio towers were a thing in Far Cry 2 though. I played all the far cry games as an adult and 3 is still really good

It would help if Nintendo would make a new 3D Donkey Kong. Yes, the song is amazing though.

All the games that came out in my childhood was for atari 2600, vic20, and zx81.

Definitely agree with far cry 3, the controls and movement feel so outdated now.

The only complaint about FarCry 3 is that the story is amazing, but the gameplay makes me wanna play farcry 4 and playing farcry 4 makes me wish both Farcry 3 and 4 had Farcry 5 gameplay. Id kill to throw a metal pipe at someone in Farcry 3. The story for Farcry 5 is comeplete ass, but the gameplay is amazing.
