Nonsense. We're now *living* the backstory of this game...
Morrowind is over 20 years old
The factions and the lore were great.
I’m a Battlefield 1942 / Vietnam and vintage MS combat flight simulator player.
I stil get a kick slaughtering my enemies and dragging their corpses to the bottom of the lake behind my country mansion in Skyrim.
Metroid has held up, imo.
Why hasn’t it held up?
In the grand scheme of life, this is worth worthless knowledge...
Leisure Suit Larry?
Redneck Rampage
This is a really stupid article.
It’s like saying Day of the Dead has aged poorly because zombie movies are “more intense” today?!
These are hallmarks showing the journey and growth of the artistic medium of gaming.
PONG /thread
“Pac-Man has held up. ”
I believe that Pong is still with us too.
As far as PC games go, “Heroes of Might And Magic III” still is a masterpiece in RPG style gaming.
Deus Ex is still a great game, one of my favorites of all time.
It has a great storyline, with a lot of conspiracy predictions. More than a few of those predictions are coming close to real events happening today: the release of a pandemic virus exploited to increase govt power, the labeling of people wanting freedom from tyranny as “terrorists”, the rise of the Deep State, etc. It is almost uncanny.
Deus Ex is available on Steam, and I recommend it. There is a good review at

DukeNukem 3D. It holds up.
“and I’m all out of bubblegum”
What is this crap fest? Screw this author. His arguments boil down to old games not being understood by new players spoiled on the latest graphics. He does have a point that today’s privileged morons have no patience for anything older than 4 minutes, (and know nothing more than 5 minutes old) but that doesn’t make it right.

I still play Might & Magic 6, 7 & 8 on PC - vintage late 90’s - especially since some smart guy mashed them together into a single game you can play through with the same characters. It’s like my “comfort game” that I return to again and again, even though I’ve beaten it many times.
I still have the old Atari games modded for PC, and all of the original NES game ROMs that I play using an emulator. I guess I prefer simplicity of play to fancy graphics and complicated interfaces. Hey - it’s my time to waste, after all.
