Is anyone replaying any old games?

I've been replaying Ocarina of Time on and off for about half a year now, whenever I'm not distracted by a newer game...
Quest for Glory from the early 90's. Good games. It's got soul--there's all these extra details that the developers didn't -need- to add, but were added anyway because the game makers were having fun. That's something I like in a game.
Oh, yeah, and I downloaded Paper Mario on the Wii, and the Banjo-Kazooie games on the Xbox. I mean, ten years ago for most of them. They have some nostalgia value (I'm going to be 24 in a couple of months, which is why I'm old enough to want to replay PC games from the early 90s).
Apart from that, I'm just rebuilding profiles on the 360. I had played Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, and Bioshock on my old roommate's 360, and then he took it with him. With the help of a job, I got my own 360. As he pointed out, any game he makes in Mass Effect will be fun to play what with all the shield and health and weapons bonuses I unlocked for him.

I'm all about replaying old games! In fact it would be note worthy if I were playing a new one. Here's a list that no one is interested in:
Super Mario World
Zelda Wind Waker
Pokemon
Huh, they're all Nintendo, neat!

Sweet, TLA is an awesome gameSilvertongue said:
I've replayed it a few times myself.OT: I will never stop replaying Freelancer. It is my absolute favorite game. I have never found a game I've enjoyed more.
/fanboy rant
I'm currently continuing all my Pokemon games (all generations) as well as replaying Starwars Battlefront II. I frequently replay Mario games too. Specifically Super Mario World.
Nice selection! I actually just started playing Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (its my first time playing any Fire Emblem game. Now I know who the feck Marth is), and several other games I missed on the DS.Silvertongue said:
Oh also I'm playing the new Lufia 2 remake. Lufia 2 was one of my top 5 favorite SNES games of all time, and I'm really getting a nice nostalgic feeling playing it on the DS.
Crimson Skies on Xbox.
My nephew was visiting, & I popped it in since it was one of the few kid friendly multiplayer games I have. It got me hooked again.
Sometimes I'll also play Risk II & Star Trek: Armada on my PC. I'd play Black on Xbox from time to time, but EVERY time my 360 needed repaired, for some reason my Black save would get corrupted. I got sick of beating the game over & over to unlock those silver weapons with unlimited ammo. (I luvs me my infinite ammo rocket launcher. =D )

I do hope you've gotten to enjoy Midtown Madness 1 & 2. I absolutely loved them, but I couldn't get into MM3. IIRC, MM1 is for Windows 98, & MM2 works on Windows 2000 & XP. (The car mods were pretty cool too.)Hallow said:
Holy Crap, someone who not only knows what cultures is but plays it as well. Awesome.Merkavar said:
I just recently reinstalled Tropico 2... again. I play alot of "old games" often. The top ones are:
Arcanum
Tropico 1
X-Com: UFO Defense/Enemy Unknown
Baldur's Gate. I am pretty much always playing the Baldur's Gate series cause they are awesome.
Also, Lufia 3 for Gameboy Color since they recently released a version for one of the other ones for the DS and it reminded me of 3. 3 was always my favorite since it was so amusing!

I've been spoiled by recent games and trying to play an older game is rather hard for me.
That said, I replayed Starcraft for the 6th time about 2 months ago.
Currently trying to play through Planescape: Torment for the first time (yes, the first time), but having grown up playing RPGs, I've burned out of the genre and usually drop them before I finish them.
Still, I wish I had the handheld consoles to properly play some remakes of older RPGs.
