Think of your favorite game, and imagine what it would be like if it were made 10 years ago.

Simple really, think of your favorite game, and try to imagine what it would have been like if it had been made 10 earlier than it already was.

FOR EXAMPLE, if your favorite game was made in 2005, then imagine it was made in 1995.
Muy favorite game is Arkham City, so it would have been on the PS1, and probably some kind of weird 3D beat em up.

Oh, I think it'll be a little like this...

Lol , my favorite game is Final fantasy 6 . If it was made 10 years ago , it would be younger than it is now . Which would have made it pretty ugly ( see FF7) and probable be on like 7 ps1 discs . Anyways graphics don't matter so i would love it anyways .

Well mine's was made 20 years ago, so it would look a hell of a lot better, I imagine. Probably would have more zones in it as well.

I can think of a few. No checkpoints, clunkier controls, but all content on the damn disc.

*On the verge of tears* But my favourite "game" is the Legacy of Kain series. And the last one came out 9 years ago. Ok, maybe I'll just try with one game only. My other favourite game (and actual game) - Bloodlines. Well, it came out 8 years ago - the first (non-Valve) game using the Source engine. Technically, it wasn't made overnight, so I'm pretty sure it was (being) made 10 years ago. But, let's say, it was actually released then. Well, facial animations weren't that good before Source, so I imagine it would have lost some points there, but other than that, I don't think it would have differed greatly - it would still be pretty much on par with what we have today, in all other departments. Perhaps it would have even been better, assuming the devs weren't forced to cut it short.

I honestly dont have a clue of how such a game could be. I guess it would be more limited in general. Maybe it would only be a Versus game like it was planned originaly?

Lylat Wars was made 15 years ago so I would imagine the same game only with better textures, a smoother framerate and higher quality audio if they it for 5 years. Maybe get a few more planets and better multiplayer?

And it would likely be a gamecube launch title.

I must have worded it awkwardly, I meant if the game was made 10 years earlier than it already was, so Lylat Wars would have been 25 years ago.

Shadow of the Colossus came out in 2005, so that's about seven years ago....

Okay, going by the OP's new description:

Shadow of the Colossus would have been released in 1995.

This was a time when the PS1 came out and 3D gaming was still very young. So I'd imagine it would probably be a 2D game with puzzle platforming.

I actually do remember hearing that Team Ico worked on a version of the game way back for the PS1. Probably an alpha or something.
