Games that are old but not too old.

All I have to say is already said. I vote Fable.
EDIT: Damnit. I forgot to add Devil May Cry. Sorry guys.

From the poll options, I chose Fable.

But since you mentioned DMC...

"I have not played any of these games".

If THOSE are old games then im FUCKED!! :(

1) Desert Strike


2) Streets of Rage


3) Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine


4) Toejam and Earl


5) Street Fighter 2: Special Champion Edition

@Akaoni: Now this list is what I'd call old. Good choices. My favorites from your list are Streets of Rage, and Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition.

Well I don't think neccessarily old but they are aging past 5 years.

I haven't played any of those and I think you could have dug deeper to get more worthy "classics".
I have heard of them all though but I don't highly regard them.

Ah Fable, good times with that game. Killing countless guards and villagers to become ultimate evil, then killing all kinds of evil enemies to become ultimate good.

Out of those, Halo.

Fuckn' Blood Omen series greatest voice acting ever with great story.
gameplay, could have been better

I guess I could've dug deeper. During around that time was when I was getting into video games though so I guess they're classics to me in my own perspective.

Jak and Daxter was my first console game, so the nostolgasm would make me cum buckets.

I don't hold any of those games in particularly high regard.

So, I'll add my own. The Seiken Densetsu (Mana) games. Particularly Final Fantasy Adventure/Sword of Mana, Secret of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 2), Seiken Densetsu 3 and Legend of Mana. Those games are classics. Too bad the Mana series has gone through the ringer and has pretty much released utter garbage since the early 2000s.

I haven't played Blood Omen or Sly Cooper, the rest are good though. Jak & Daxter feels the oldest, probably because I only ever played it at the time. But talking of moderately old games, I haven't played Timesplitters 1 and 2 in waaaay too long.

Not that any of the games in the list makes me feel any major nostalgia, but I guess the first Halo game would almost qualify.

I just chose Fable I guess, it was a pretty good game.

But I made a list of games that would really make me feel nostalgic;

Streets of Rage, Streets of Rage 2, Streets of Rage 3, Sonic, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic&Knuckles, Super Mario Bros 1/2/3, Super Mario World, Final Fight, Street Fighter 2, Super Street Fighter 2, Megaman 1-8, Megaman X 1-6, Final Fantasy (actually playing the PSP version for nostalgia), Final Fantasy III (SNES), Final Fantasy IV (Cant wait for FFIV CC), Final Fantasy VII, Chrono Trigger, Legend of Zelda (NES), Legend of Zelda II (NES), Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (Gameboy), Legend of Zelda: A link to the past (SNES), Double Dragon 1/2/3 (NES), Super Double Dragon (SNES), Battletoads&Double Dragon (SNES), Yoshi's Island; Super Mario World 2 (SNES), the list goes on...

That shit ain't that old...
For me it would probably be Lucas Arts SCUMM games such as Days of the Tentacle and Red Alert 1. Takes me back to my childhood days.

Whoo man, for me, old would have to be stuff like Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Street Fighter II'.

However, going by the poll, I would have to give another option, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

This thread needs more NES discussion. Solomon's Key, anyone?

The first Halo was pretty cool.

I never played any of them but I would not say they were old. You may need to look at games from 10-15 years to find anything nostalgic for me!
