What retro console games are you replaying/playing for the first time that you missed out on?

[deviation]

Not a clue. There isn't a 007 movie called Blood Stone, if that's what you mean. The game so far is very good, great action scenes, great car chases. Overall, pretty impressed.

Yeah I think it is the one I'm thinking of, that's very highly rated despite being made up for the game

Does Forza Motorsport 4 count at retro now?

I have been stuck on that for the last week getting to the end of the overall campaign. Now on season 10 and just hit level 50!

I know you can go further and quite frankly I probably will as it's still SUCH a great game and the crowning gem in the series for me

Haha, I'll allow it

Have you played everything or nothing? Not based off a film but does have Brosnan as bond in it along with Willem Dafoe, Heidi Klum and Mya (edit- just watched the intro again and it's a all star cast for voice actors!!!).

Here ya go ...may as well share the intro

3rd person action game and it's well put together. Proper theme tune done by Mya too which is pretty decent

It's currently about £4-5 on eBay and £2 on CEX for the PS2 or Xbox version, cube is a bit more

I must have missed that one! Sounds good.
When I heard Brosnan and third person, I immediately remembered that terrible TMD on PS1

Haha cheers, strange to think FM4 is 2 consoles and 4 games old now!

Yeah it's mich better than TND on the PS1....It has a frame rate for starters

You're welcome
Yeah it's crazy! For me retro in my head is still Gameboy/GameGear/NES/MasterSystem/SNES/Megadrive etc... But I know it's not just them anymore But I still feel dirty classing a PS1/2 as retro, yet it is haha!

Haha, TMD was good in places, but felt like some dodgy fanmade game/mod, it's hilarious if you go back and play it now

 

[deviation]

Haha! I hadn't seen that!

You can look back and seen the comedic side of these games which is good too

Agreed on the pricing of the older big pc games now, are going up at quite the rate ATM. CEX is a good place to check as sometimes the pc versions of games are written off as irrelevant Vs the console copies and are cheaper

This thread has given me the gentle reminder I need to get the new shed up and bikes etc out of my workshop to start on several retro builds I have been meaning to start! ....so many other games I want to play on the right hardware

Sorry I missed this reply, haha, yeah LGR is great - he does an Oblivion review where he starts off referencing the Star Wars game due to both having Patrick Stuart in
Skip to 2 minutes if this doesn't link you straight to that part, this is hilarious, you'll appreciate this

Yeah it's crazy the pricing, yep, CEX FTW where needed, I just buy keys elsewhere these days and risk playing them on day one if it's something I really want, I've never liked waiting for patches and it ruins the lead up to waiting years for that game you really want, so Russian Roulette it is

The shed plans sound awesome mate, get on that!

Not sure if you would call it retro but I've been playing Diablo 2 Resurrected and it is really good fun. Looks a bit janky on modern TVs but it is fine.

If you're enjoying it, then the graphics dont matter I replay things like Red Alert, Dungeon Keeper 2, and Warcraft 2, and they look dated, but the gameplay is still spot on
