Aged Badly or Still Awesome

I have some old PS2 games I still play on my PS3. Oldest is Call of Duty: Finest Hour from 2004.

As much as it depresses me to say, Goldeneye 64 is one of those classic games that I find impossible to play anymore because of the control setup. Holding down the R button to try and aim accurately while remaining perfectly stationary makes it uber hard. On the flip side, I have no problem playing Turok: Dinosaur hunter this day and age. It really made the best use out of the N64 control pad and still remains pretty intuitive to this day.

There's actually not a lot of games I have a hard time getting back into that are old. The original Rainbow Six I would still play if it was compatible with modern PCs, Command & Conquer Red Alert (1 and 2) are still nostalgic wonders that I greatly enjoy, Half-Life 1 remains one of my all time favorite games ever. There's something to be said about things standing the test of time, I'm sure in 15 years I'll still be playing half the games I enjoy today.

One modern game I have a hard time getting back into is the original Borderlands. For some reason, I just have a mental block against that game. Meanwhile, Borderlands 2 remains addictive and hilarious.

Crash Bandicoot and Spyro will always be awesome.

Fallout 1&2. Two games that i can play over, and over, and over again! Yet i can't get myself to play Fallout 3 or New Vegas hardly...
Fallout 2 in most cases, is my game when i just want to calm down, and go through the wasteland and nearly dying every ten minutes. Playing as a stupid character is still priceless,
and i will forever love it. (Low INT ftw!)
