Psychonauts is only 7 years old, so it's not that old yet A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 17/07/2012 11:02:09 PM
After a certain amount of years games reach the point where you need either the power of nostalgia to make them playable, be very open minded, or the game has something so phenomenal going for it that it's worthwhile anyway. Otherwise it becomes nearly impossible to get in to for a new player.

Psychonauts isn't nearly so old yet. However, it is a very good game from all I've heard, and it's one I haven't had the chance to play yet, so maybe I should get on top of that situation. I'm usually pining for a new game to play, after all.

Giving old games a try years after their initial release? - 17/07/2012 02:32:57 AM 2012 Views
Psychonauts was worth it. The art direction helped it to age pretty gracefully, too. *NM* - 17/07/2012 03:07:54 PM 398 Views

I played Final Fantasy and Castlevania recently. - 17/07/2012 05:24:00 PM 717 Views
Don't know much about Castlevania, but which FF did you play? - 17/07/2012 10:58:23 PM 707 Views
Yes, sorry. I meant Final Fantasy 1 - 18/07/2012 01:12:59 AM 719 Views
Ah... In that case, I don't know a thing about either - 18/07/2012 01:23:26 AM 765 Views
Yeah, FF1 was pretty annoying. - 18/07/2012 06:03:52 PM 645 Views

Since my computer is about six years out of date, I do nothing else, basically. - 17/07/2012 08:39:40 PM 703 Views
There's an xkcd for just this situation - 17/07/2012 10:48:53 PM 819 Views
There's an xkcd for most situations geeks are likely to encounter in their lives, honestly. - 17/07/2012 11:15:21 PM 731 Views

Can't say I've gotten very far with the romance subplots yet. - 18/07/2012 11:03:39 PM 682 Views
Yeah, I haven't gotten any. - 18/07/2012 11:38:04 PM 692 Views

I used to have sooo much fun with Heroes of Might and Magic 3 years after its release - 18/07/2012 10:19:59 AM 748 Views
I play Heroes on my laptop with Windows 7 - 27/07/2012 04:08:31 PM 680 Views

Awesome. - 18/07/2012 12:53:21 PM 695 Views
I'd say Morrowind could probably be one of those games... - 19/07/2012 12:44:25 AM 659 Views
I tried that recently. Spent more time creating my character than I did playing before quitting. *NM* - 19/07/2012 12:55:08 AM 572 Views
Then you are doing it wrong. - 19/07/2012 09:17:00 AM 754 Views
Or it's not his type of game. *shrug* I found Morrowind to be unbearably tedious. *NM* - 19/07/2012 04:12:04 PM 360 Views
Stop being reasonable. - 19/07/2012 05:02:08 PM 661 Views
