Perfect Dark.
Perfect Dark.
I am 65 so I guess I would have to say "Pong". lol
Without a shadow of a doubt, Final Fantasy VII. It is by no means a bad game by any stretch, but it's not nearly as good as the fans make it out to be.
Most games i played when i was growing up were great and i never cared about overrated simply because there wasn't a way to overrate it to be honest lol I think its because almost no one had internet back in those days.Nothing really got that over hyped like games do now.Now there is so much hype for games and its easy to see the Hype that i think almost all games are overrated nowadays.There are some that aren't but the vast majority are.
Hey, he said what games we thought were overrated. Those were the ONLY games I heard about during my childhood. It was as if nobody played anything else, so I didn't find anyone into the games I liked until well into adulthood. But when I tried these games I mentioned as a kid, I was bored and completely unimpressed.
Definitely Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.

I was never a big fan of the original Pitfall! for the Atari 2600 myself, even though it's ranked as the #1 Atari 2600 game on many a list. I'd take Mountain King over Pitfall! pretty much any day. I also preferred Super Mario Bros. 2 over Super Mario Bros. 3 on the NES, weirdly enough - I thought it was interesting to have very different characters to play the game with, all of whom had different playstyles, and it gave 2 a lot more replayability over 3.
"We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see." ― Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
I'll go a step further.
It's an absolute landmark in gaming. For many people, myself included, it was our first taste of JRPGs (if not RPGs in general for many people). When you think of the PS1, you'd be hard-pressed to name a bigger & more impactful title, & 90s gaming in general has very little that can compete with it outside of perhaps Pokemon.
HOWEVER!
It is not gods gift to the JRPG genre. It wasn't the best when it came out, & it certainly isn't the best since it's come out. Hell, Final Fantasy IX came out just a few years later and blew it out of the water if you ask me. VI came out 3 years prior, and I'd also have that ahead of it.
So yeah, even as a Squaresoft-era FF fan, as good as VII is (and it is a damn good game), it is not the absolute best thing since sliced bread. I understand why people are fanatical about it, but chill out, please.
PS: Also anything by Naughty Dog after the PS2, & anything involving Elder Scrolls.
Umm. First had a Salora Fellow (clone of VTech Laser 200), it had a really, really shitty version of Battleship. Took ages to load from the casette player too. :P
Fifa just 11 dudes running after a ball like a bunch of idiots. Feels like a pack of dogs idk never understood that game.
Thats what i wanted to say as i red "Goldeneye". You had to change the control scheme then you would move with the yellow buttons. It was like wasd movement. Goldeneye and Perfect Dark were the only 2 shooters i enjoyed playing with a controller.
And screw the one who wrote Perfect Dark ^^. It was a freaking masterpiece, it evolved every thing from goldeneye. And there is not a single shooter yet were you could customize the multiplayer expierence how you could do it in PD.
Not even close to my childhood, but I wanna say FF7. Don't get me wrong, it was a good game but it was hailed as the second coming or something, and I liked FF6(3) way way better.
Everything Zelda... never understood what is good about it. Boring story. Gameplay also nothing amazing. Weird artstyle.
