Whether it was for good or bad reasons, terrorism is still terrorism. I do not find it a good thing because it destroyed a part of a city, hindered the lives of all of its citizens, as well as putting many people out of a job and the people that were killed by the explosion and all the fallout from the blast.manaman said:
I started playing epic rpg's with Final Fantasy on the NES.
I actually played FF7 more recently (back in the day I had an N64 I think that was the era)Wardog13 said:
and I still found it amazing, but then again I did really get into the story (then watching the movie helped with that too)
but I couldn't go back to Goldeneye because of the controls, took me a while to move from the Nintendo button controllers to using dual-analogs and it's weird using the N64 controller for the FPS movement in 007 haha
The whole FMV genre more or less became three train wreck smashing into together as they hit a nuclear power plant during a metldownIanBrazen said:

If you were referring to what I think you were referring to, it is illegal to mention it.Ultima Shadow said:
If you were referring to Goldeneye Source, which I will not provide a link to because it might be misinterpreted as advertising, I believe that -is- legal.
Anyway, there's a lot of games I could go with in regards to the OP, but to throw some random names out there, I would have to say Daggerfall, Megarace, and GTA 1.
It's only been out for 4 years, but: Burnout Revenge.
It was a very fast-paced game with lost of destruction (and flames) which I loved on my PS2 (I eventually switched to the Xbox 360 version ( which I found better) one year later), but the new Split Second trailer just blew every Burnout and Full Auto (and all of the related games) game out of the fucking water.

While I think Goldeneye is still a rather solid FPS for it's time, and for the life of me I can not remeber the controls being a problem. Though I mean for a console FPS, obviously keyboards and mouses almost always work better for FPS then system controllers.
As for FF VII if square decided to change Cloud's name to Popeye, and gave him a sailor's hat I think it would help make the character model look a bit more impressive! ; )

I'd say Doom is the most jarring example of a game that didn't age well, but only for one specific reason. No Y-Axis aiming. They put on a good show of faking it, but it's not really 3D, and after... what, ~15 years now with full 3D games? That's just intolerable.
The gameplay holds up very well though, it's just a pure carnage shoot'em up against occasionally overwhelming numbers of enemies. That's probably what I like most about Left 4 Dead, someone finally recaptured that "holy shit I'm going to die" feeling that's been missing since the first time I heard a door open behind me, followed by the roar of a Cyberdemon.
