Do Video Games Suck Nowadays or What..

[Chris_Sanders]

I was at the video store and couldn't find any good games to rent. Most of the ones I wanted weren't in anyways. But remember the good old days.

Contra
Castlevania
Double Dragon
Metroid
Excitebike
Mario Bros
Tecmo Bowl
Bionic Commando
Mega Man


Not to mention all of the basketball games out nowadays suck! I rented EA Live 2005 and it was horrible. You can't even fast break. It's crap. The old NBA Live 95 was the best. I should really be a game creator.

Please...those games are garbage by today's standards.

Dude I can't believe you said those games are garbage. Those are fighting words brotha. Those are called classics. Pay homage.

I absolutely loved Prince of Persia: Sands of Time when it came out. When I finally beat the game, I declared it my Game of the Year, over the excellent Knights of the Old Republic. I beat Prince of Persia: Warrior Within twice...the alternate ending was actually better than the "regular" ending. I think that Prince of Persia 3 will be very good.

I love the Medal of Honor series. Loved it since I first played it on the PlayStation. The original was quite good.

Max Payne was pretty good, even if it was a bit dark. I've never played Enter the Matrix, but I've heard almost nothing but bad about it, so I never really went for it.

I haven't played the NBA Live series since NBA Live '98. I'm not sure how it has gone in recent years, but I know the NHL series has gone downhill. Yeesh. At least Madden is good.

***EDIT***: I just found out that Jordan Mechner is apparently working on Prince of Persia 3! YES!
