To this day, what's a game that you can always pick back up, no matter how much it ages?

I think the Sonic games are the ones I go back to all the time. Though i dont have a system to run them on at the moment so i can't play them now.

Don't know if I'd consider it "retro", but I never get tired of Shenmue and Shenmue 2.
Still can't believe Shenmue 3 is actually happening.

When I was a kid, I never got a chance to play Shenmue 1 or 2. Do you think I should play those before the 3rd one? Without question. It's all one continuous story. Hopefully Sega does some kind of HD remaster of the first two, but barring that a good Dreamcast emulator will do the trick, albeit with some graphical and audio bugs due to the imperfect nature of emulation. The best option, if possible, is to find a model 1 Deamcast, copies of Shenmue 1 and 2, and a region boot disc. Boot disc required because the second game never released on Dreamcast in North America, so a European copy would be necessary. |

I'll look around for a Dreamcast. There are different models? What's the difference if you don't mind me asking? You certainly know your shit dude! haha. Let me guess, that's how you played Shenmue 2? |

Let me guess, that's how you played Shenmue 2? I played 2 on Xbox. It's the only console it released on in NA. There's not much physical difference between Dreamcast models, just slight hardware and software variations. Model 0 is the first one, then model 1, then model 2. By model 2, they had put in enough DRM protection that boot discs don't often don't work, and it makes it difficult to play pirated games. Model 0 and 1 are super easy to pirate on, and are a bit more sturdily built, so last longer. |
