Putting a disc into the console and it instantly plays. No updates, no asking to sign in to the online mode, just “here’s the game, now play it.”
I think the Wii is the last console to do this. instant gaming no silly updates.
There still games that did that just don't connect to the network only thing you need is to install it like PC
So true, man!
Yeah and if it has glitches, soft locking, and corruption save glitches you just have to endure then like a big boy! Or to buy a new press with a newer version if you're lucky
yes, Yes, YESSS!
No DLC's ,No Microtransactions. Full package games that you pay for.
and THE beloved manuals
Also no patches, no improvements after the release. If the game had bugs... You were fucked
Hope for the best i guess
Inde games and devs who realy care still do that like God of War 2018 was a full package, so are most Nintendo games with a few Bonus updates or expansion pack style DLC, Spider Man was a complet game with just a episodic expansion pack that should have been just one big thing but whatever but yeah the incomplete games are BS but most of them are big "AAA" games I never gave a shit about to begin with.
until M$ brought it on to consoles on the original Xbox
Opening the manual and having lore characters and cool art
Gr ay oh man, buying a new game and opening the manual for the first time... can’t beat that
opening the manual in the first place lol
Reading the manual cover to cover in the car on the way home from buying the game
Oh my god yes!
Sniffing the manual (You know you've done it)
The move to HD was nice, but the move from PS1 graphics to PS2 graphics was even way more impressive. Also 2000s.
It was a big jump, and now we have more consistent but smaller jumps.
Ps3 to ps3 was a bigger jump I thought
@@stevencundy4501 they are called day 1 patches
Ps1 graphics have not aged well
That PS2 startup noise literally made me go "Oooh" in tandem with Rob in sync with Rob lol
Sony and Sega should've kept their classic intros.
Same I had to go find it
Soulofd4rkness 750 did you find it?
Why did u say "in tandem with Rob" AND "in sync with Rob"? They mean the same thing, why were BOTH necessary lolol
@@MerkhVision HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA jfc dude, you got me
Playing split screen multiplayer games with 4 people and a multi tap
Sam Wright haven’t heard that word in a long time.... Multi-tap
On one of the big TVs with the giant box on the back
@@tylertheshark2494 i still had one of those big 400 lb monsters til a few years ago, that thing had glass a few inches thick and the screen was like 2 ft accross which made the back super huge, thing fell off the back of truck and all it did was scratch the screen a little. I bet it still works and will long after i am dead
Quake 3,unreal tournament,rune,and time splitters
@@hollowknight9528 and doom
I remember the first time my friend played Final Fantasy X. It was on my home system because it was the best one available at the time. There were three of us present and we were all blown away by the opening cutscene. After it was over we let the character stand there for nearly five minutes because we didn’t realize that the cutscene had ended. Titus still looked like Titus instead of a pixelated 16 bit version of himself.
Tidus
Same thing with StarFox Adventures. "Oh, I can shoot now!"
Gamers don't age. We just gain exp.
My back says otherwise
And don't go back to the lower level areas except for memories.
Damn right 👍
bacot
My body disagrees :(
Can we have a moment of silence for the old Cheat Code Central Walkthrough page. 🙏

I still have the guides for a handful of games from Cheat Code Central printed off in my ps1/2 storage box :p

Best part of my Friday is coming home to Rob's Friday Features.
Really? I"d say it's the second best part of mine; first would be Show of the Week at Outside Xbox. (Shameless plug.)
10:32 will definitely get you a full view of Rob's Friday features 😵
Definitely
That HD part is completely true.
I couldn't believe how CLEAN it looked
It was like going from Demon's Crest on Super Nintendo to Final Fantasy 8 all over again!
If I recall correctly my fist HD experience was Gears Of War, the game still holds up remarkably well.
8) No microtransactions or DLCs
9) Developers/Publishers were trustworthy
10) You got what you paid for.
Counterpoints
(8) Except the equivlant of DLC was often repurposed into sequels so you'd often be paying full price for minor improvments. You'd also be encouraged into buying magazines to get info or demo disks or stratgedy guides
(9) They were always untrustworthy mate. See Sega during this time alongside, DE, Vicarious, any company that did movie licenced games etc
(10) Not true.
Firstly, nowadays you have ways of seeing a game before buying it. Back then, reviews were hard to come across or limited to magazines.
Again, see movie licended games and the like. Shovelware was actually at its most common during the PS2 era
I liked movie based the in games I knew what I was getting I wish they come back!
Sure. You always got what you paid. That's why we never had a market crash for trashy games on Atari lying. And we never got BS screenshots and renders either! Suuure
@@MiloKuroshiro
Your fault for buying & trusting the non trustworthy of the time. Also read everything I've posted because wow, it's sad nowadays you have to spill out everything in a comment & then deal with people like you that doesn't read all posted.
You get what you pay for you paid for the overpriced dlc and the digital deluxe for a extra 20 bucks it comes with a skin that you wont get for the 60 dollar version
Costumes were earned in game for *Free*
Full on content
There is a single player/split screen co-op, split screen local and online multiplayer with bot and different game modes
Gallery mode, cheats etc.
Now one of them is a game now 😅
Technically, we had to find cheat codes, first, and some times, they were fake.
But yeah, better than paying lol
They still are
In coming “iTs OnLy CoSmT#%”
Some of the best things in some games are the bloody cosmetics sorry terrible argument
Mar Speedsman nar not really remember unlocking them all for challenges etc in most of not all fighting games now it requires the bank account challenges
You're not alone. Our first DVD player was also the PS2.
And now my current Blu-ray player is my PS4. Times change but things stay the same
🖐 guilty as charged.
Same, and my Blu-ray player is my Xbox one. Yes, this a PlayStation channel, I don’t care
Same
CmdrLeonhart my first and only blue ray is my PS4. I bought it a couple months ago
Hearing the PS2 opening theme just hit me with a wave of nostalgia. Playing games on the PS2 was literally my entire entire childhood until I got a PS3. Good times.
My favorite memory of things that takes me back to 00s was when I was 15 years old. Early in 2002 a friend of mine helped me get my hands on a PS2. I managed to afford getting a used console from a pawn shop and I also got a single controller, the A/V cable, power cord and two games. I couldn't wait to get home and play, and in my excitement I forgot a key item to have especially considering the only two games I now owned. I was the proud owner of Final Fantasy X and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. The key item I was missing, a memory card. My 15 year old mind was smart enough to realize I wasn't going to be able to really enjoy FFX without the ability to save but was just dumb enough to think MGS2 would be easy enough to do without it. So I played the game on Normal mode and found myself happy and spiteful of my ignorance as it took me 36 hours straight of playing (mixed with food and washroom breaks) to beat MGS2. Every death making me angry I wanted to quit combined with the idea of starting over from the very beginning built my own personal hell while I sat there internally screaming obscenities in my head for my foolishness and jumping for joy at my successes when I made it further after every death. To this day the idea of playing games you need to save manually to progress (Nier: Automata for example) take me back to that moment I was 15 and being ignorant enough to think "I don't care I can't save, I need to play this As soon as possible!"
25 seconds in...this video is going to make me feel old isn't it 😂
Yup.
32 here and I feel ancient after watching this.
not even 30 yet and it mafe me feel old
Yeah, it is making me feel that way.
More like when you see people that say “I was born in 99”
not only are the 90s finished,
not only are the 00s finished,
but the decade after the 00s is now almost finished
wtf is going on!?
....time.... Time slows for no one
@@Yoder023 I shall conquer Time even if I have to become a JRPG villian to do it!!!!!!
Sepiroth theme starts playing.
The real question is, what do we call this decade??!! The "Teenies"???😂
@@k.k.poptart7469 that sounds good to me, i'm more worried about the decade after that.
You're getting old and soon you'll be in an old folks home weeing on yourself and your ungrateful kids won't visit you.
Happy Friday!
Oh god the FAQs, the wonderful FAQs! Got me through all the Final Fantasys, Legend of Dragoon, and many more! Good times
I'm in my 30's. This made me so happy. We've been through a lot of changes. This was a badass Friday feature. No doubt. Thank you.
Reasons I am a subscriber:
1-Rob.
2-Because I love the content and the guys and girls are amazing.
3-Rob.
Vaas Montenegro I’m just here for rob
@@DivinityFallen same
Do you know the definition of insanity?
I also really enjoy Rob. I just wish he covered some other games like, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy, Assassin's Creed (especially Blackflag's water), Skyrim, The Witcher 3, Kingdom Hearts & SoulsBorne for example.
I only watch the Friday features
The switch from AV input to HDMI input.
It was like opening your eyes for the first time
You mean I plug this one cord into one spot and I'm good to go? Lol.
Not if you actually changed lol wasn't much of a difference
I still have a tower with 500+ dvd's lol I can never let them go, so many movies I have that are stupidly hard to find online to watch.
Fully developed games that didn't need day one patching.
Games that were very difficult to patch at all, meaning developers got them right first time.
Enter store - buy Dungeon Keeper on day 1 - get out of the store - be happy. (oh the good old days!)
@@anvb5a1 yeah, lets see you go back to those days without all the technology
@@Freestyle80 Oh how i so wish i could!
Printing the entire walkthrough for Kingdom Hearts 1 because the internet is too slow to bother looking it up everytime
I did it too. After my friend got annoyed after a few visits:D code veronica was hard for a little kiddo
Done that too. 48 double sided pages (with school's printer and paper of course)
Ha! I did that with FF7 and FF8. I still have that walkthrough printed, and I still use it when I replay that game.
I still have a printed from gameFAQs 100% completion guide for FFX-2 which could double as a doorstop, it has so many pages stapled together!
Loved buying the latest magazine for a demo disc lol
I still have some demo disc's from the Playstation magazine :p
I had a subscription so just waited every month a took the disc out before reading. The first Viewtiful Joe demo erased all my memory card and month's later there was an apology to everyone in the magazine about it.
I never heard anyone saying the year 2000 as “early naughties”. 😅
It's a British thing, they often call zero "nought". The decimal 0.7 would be "nought point seven", hence "the noughties", or "naughties".
Corey C. Nobody says that
@Corey C. No one says that in the US
nayrB _hedgehog read the replies
@@_nayrb i heard that all the time down south in georgia florida and alabama back in the day it was definitely a thing that was popular in atleast 3 states in the early aughts
The good ole days when my mom made me stay off the computer all day because my grandfather was having surgery, and we had to keep the phone line open... to this day the it is still longest day of my life.
P.S grandfather was fine.
It was worth it then.
I miss manuals, devs got lazy not making them anymore!
I still have the map I got with my copy of San Andreas it felt so good to have these goodies
Bring back the manuals!
First thing ya did with a new manual?
INHALE and reflect aaaah it's great to be alive 😁
I don't do that 😄
They say it's for the good envoirement by saveing paper and They are now digitaly provided via the game's option menu on the home menu or in game but at the same time those are boring and dull 9 times out of 10 as there all like the cheep 3rd party maunals that are just text with a few black and white pictures instead of the beautiful works of art many 1st party and 3rd party devloped by people who cared about their games with manuals full of beautiful artwork and visual diretions along with the text! It's jusr people cuting costs for more money
The best thing for me with the game Manuals was reading the back story for that game or reading about the characters, allies, enemies or factions that you'll meet in the game.
Ugh.. The orange button. How it betrayed my hopes and dreams of being a pretend guitarist.
Never mastered it. My gf was a real pro tho and five-stared lots of songs on Expert. Made me feel a bit lame
I never would've started playing real guitar if I'd never picked up Guitar hero, and for that I will always treasure the series.
same here. if it weren't for guitar hero (legends of rock to be specific) I wouldn't love rock music as much as i do now
Rob went straight into 1080? I started on 720p and stayed there for years, at the time 1080 TVs were insanely expensive.
Some people forget Delsin Rodent....but not us
...not us
What happened to him?
Bring back Delsin!
Jose Partida In one of his Friday features Rob said the puppet was gone and there was a cutscene that said he was off to train with this monkey puppet who’d go and destroy Rob I’m waiting for the endgame
James Bond where has that badger been?!
I know I've played too much Guitar Hero when I can tell the song at #5 is Slow Ride without even hearing it.
I thought exactly the same thing
And I know I've played too much guitar hero when I can tell you sucked at guitar hero because you played slow ride enough to immediately recognize it.
Good players typically avoid the easy songs. They get really boring really fast.
5 starred ttfatf. I just like playing games with my friends
@@ritterbrown5474 keep telling yourself that. You'll actually believe it eventually.
Ohhh... We found ourselves the moody self righteous troll! How cute ❤❤❤
I always had tons of respect for the people that put all of that time and effort into writing those guides.
This episode really did give me the warm fuzzies.
The transition from pressing a power button on the console and picking up the wired pad, to pressing a button on your wireless pad and your console just coming to life; without you needing to move. Like magic.
I'm not the only person who did that with the discs
I did too. I dont know why, it just fasinated me
@@Raindrop_2401 I liked how the rainbows would move when you turned the disk
The smell of the fresh disc out of the box
I'm sure we all did. It was so shiny and full of rainbows, after all :D
Remember the purple disks? So pretty
The accuracy of this video makes me feel insanely old.
90's and 00's gamer here and i remember it all
I worked at a Blockbuster during the long slow changeover from VHS to DVD. I feel old now.
What's Blockbuster?
What’s blockbuster 😂😂
Store that sold vhs, dvds, and videogames... grew up with it
.. shame if you didn't no one knows :(
Ah Blockbusters. I used to drop my son's off at their grandmothers after I'd taken them there. They would have rented a video or PS game back then.
Instant like for mentioning the Eye Toy. That was truly mindblowing back in the day.
There was nothing better than fighting ninja's or cleaning windows
"Hello you've caught me feeling nostalgic about the naughties!"
- oh dear, the naughties? I'm getting old aren't I.......
"First on our list.......DVDS....lolz who remembers those!"
- 😭😭😭
When you brought up EyeToy, I had a surge of memories. Me and my mate Blake. I miss him.
I had completely forgotten it even existed and then the mere mention of it has loaded my brain with things I thought I had forgotten.
What happened to your mate Blake?
@@intensellylit4100
Just grew apart. Both in our late twenties and doing completely different things.
Watching DVDS on a 4K TV, there's only one word to describe Rob's dad, LEGEND!
He's wearing Kojima productions jacket! 🥰🖤
I was born in 95' so I relate some to the 90s videos but this one really hit home!
Me too 97
Same here, I was born in 94’ so I know how you feel. Man do I feel old. I remember playing the N64 and PS1 so makes it even worse.
Yeah, 95 for me as well. First systems I played on were the N64 and SNES, and the first system I owned was the ps1 that I got from my mothers ex boyfriend. I got all of his games with it as well, so I do have nostalgia for a lot of 90's stuff, even if I only experienced the tail end of it. But most of my time was spent with the ps2. Got it early in its lifecycle, and played with it until like a couple of years into the ps3, 360 generation.
Those exact online walkthroughs helped me through Fatal Frame and Silent Hill and thus became the mortar solidifying my love for horror games
Fun fact i still use some of these guides/walkthroughs today.
I remember starting Mass Effect on my old box TV. There was a radar/map in the bottom corner with coloured blobs for the objective points. Half way through my play through I bought my first HD TV. It was only after playing it in HD that I realised that the coloured blobs were actually intricate symbols. My old TV just handle the detail.
This list just made me realize I'm eligible for a senior discount
That demo with T-Rex on it omg I forgot about that one. It also had Hercules and Abe's Oddesey on it. I played the shit out of that demo.
I personally preffered those old game guides with the ASCII art
Always love taking these trips down nostalgia lane with you guys. Thanks for all the videos and hard work you people put into them.
Man....that exact FFX guide on GameFAQs....I'm pretty sure I used that SAME. EXACT. ONE....
it is the best one after all!
Without even watching the video, I'm going to guess it was the one by Alex. He or she made the best walkthroughs, and for a lot of my favorite games to boot.
EDIT: It wasn't. Boo.
@@ShyBoy6ty9 It wasn't, but I think this still qualifies as another thing only early 00 gamers will remember. I always remember looking at the gamefaqs strategy guide pages for my games, and if I saw one by AIex (usually did), THAT was the one I was using, because they were always such high quality.
@@ShyBoy6ty9 Alex is the god of final fantasy walkthroughs.
Now at the ripe age of 31 nostalgia has taken on a whole new meaning......I love gaming.....and Dragons Dogma......Game on young ones, game on.
This is the first time I have ever seen a video talking about this part of my life, I feel very old.
The HD topic in particular really brought me back. My first HD TV was a 19-inch Samsung, and I distinctly remember downloading movie trailers (Tallegeda Nights ftw) from the store to watch. Truly mindblowing. To think that within a year or two we had HD gaming and online play. I'll never forget playing GTA4 online for the first ever time and having to wrap my head around how it was possible that there were other human beings running around the open world with me.
Those cutscenes in games like ffx and ffxii where the graphics quality jumped up to the most beautiful things I’d ever seen are still some of my favorite things, even though everything remotely new looks better than they ever did. It’s just not the same
Wait a sec is that footage of Rosie playing the on the eye toy?
Indeed it is
It's amazing
It took me a while to recognise her because the picture is so blurry, but yes it would appear to be the case. That's real dedication, to record new EyeToy videos instead of just using some stock footage.
@@Astfgl also i think she did it because it's fun. i think they were like who wants to try and capture footage of the Eyetoy for the Friday feature, and Rosie was like "Meee!! Meee!" XD
@@Astfgl I love that they did that.
Got a wee shiver up the back of my neck at that start up sound, thanks Rob! 😍
Full backwards compatibility (if you had a PS2), no remasters, no patches, no live services, no dlc, no lootboxes, no installation times (the console would load the game from the dvd), music CD and movie DVD players, cheat codes rather than p2w, studios would release high budget - polished games quicker, more resistant controllers, a lot co-op games and you can still play 99% of the library today because they all released physically and/or are archived by the internet.
The negatives: Many games lacked auto save, region lock and extremely blurry/pixelated resolutions.
However, let's speak about the negatives of the mid 10s for a comparison's sake.
Zero backwards compatibility, filled with remasters you have to pay for again, large patches/live services/dlcs/lootboxes by greedy publishers who release broken or unfinished games for full price, no cheat codes, taking forever to release new titles, hardly any co-op, a couple of the games released this generation are already gone forever due to them being always online, yearly sequels (remasters on steroids) of already established franchises rather than betting on new ideas, paid online, ruined story/offline mode of some games by trying to shove American politics and heavy censorship.
But don't worry guys, the 2020s will be worse thanks to streaming. You won't even own the broken game releases anymore!
And then some people say gamers are toxic, the fact that we downgraded in everything except graphics is really telling of the current generation.
Oh wait just thought about another game taking aim at American politics! MGS on ps2. Still coming up blank on current gen though.
@@djangomarkov7948 Except the game was designed around it. I'm talking about games that tried to shoehorn american leftist politics to please people who don't even buy the damn games. MK11 (Jak's ending & full clothed women to avoid 'sexism'), Life Is Strange 1 and 2, Overwatch, BFV, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, Mass Effect Andromeda, anime games (mostly censorship because 'sexism' again) and Ubisoft games in general even though they don't outright say it, it's obvious.
JKL I’m all for representation but even I can agree it’s a little much. I miss my OP female hero’s/villains in scantily clad armor barely covering their privates bits.
You know when women could actually be tough and badass and still keep their feminine traits instead and of making them all tomboy like.
I loved those walkthroughs! And like you, Rob, they helped me out with FFX and those pesky side quests and hidden coordinates from the airship.
I miss those times. But more than anything else I just miss buying a complete game.
Speaking of downloading trailers, though obviously not PlayStation related, I remember when Nintendo released a Wii Channel (that is, a downloadable program for the Wii) specifically for viewing the trailer for Metroid Prime 3. That was literally the Channel's only function.
I know millions of people say this every generation but damn I feel old.
I remember playing super Mario 64 at a circuit city.
Things aren’t so simple anymore
I remember playing Duck Hunt on my NES with the gun. Damn I feel old realizing I started gaming at nearly the begining of the video gaming era >
AMY HOARD great game duck hunt. I still have the old nes lightgun 😆
Duck hunt is a surefire way to make someone feel old. :-P
Press F for Circuit City
I waited to get an HD TV and cable to get MGS4. The first moment I saw my favorite game series in HD was something I'll never forget. I played that game in 12 hour shifts.
I could watch these videos all day long. They’re so entertaining! But this video had me laughing so hard because I could relate to all of this!!! Especially when you brought up gameFAQS. That site was a lifesaver!! 😂😂😂
ESL scrub here, and this is the first time I hear the term noughties. Yes, though you were saying naughties 😈
Dont worry, no one really ever uses that term in reality. Most ppl say "the two thousands/The 2000's" instead.
EFL veteran here. First time for me hearing that as well!
I thought he was referring to the "nineties", yet I realized he was talking about the 2000's.
Never heard it before either
Aeladya I am American too, but I have heard the term before
When Rob said Scart lead I actually got hit with mad nostalgia
Oh the nostalgia! Awesome trip down memory lane. Thank you, Rob 😁
Oh my so much nostalgia. I remember looking up FAQ/Walkthrough guides. Such a good Feature thanks Rob
Another Friday, another Rob Video.
13:19 minutes of greatness x)
Playstation acces is the perfect break for my job, thank you guys!
Ive been nostalgic for the 00’s since 2013, its was the best decade. I remember saving up money mowing lawns in the LA heat all summer to blow it all on FFXI with a 20GB hard drive and network adapter for $250 just to play the one game. Zero regrets, staying up late with a keyboard plugged into an extension cable to my PS2 using crude translation keywords to communicate with the Japanese players, I had a special Red Hot Chili Peppers mix CD I always listened to while playing.
Oh man
This made me laugh and smile. Being 31 and seeing how far we’ve come. Some bad, some good. Thank you for this. I needed it
Damn, when you showed kh, I thought you were gonna say unskippable scenes
Rob's early 00s internet usage:
90% walkthroughs, 10% hentai
Joe Knowles 10% why do ps1 manuals smell so good
10% Searching for rare games he didn't have in his possession.
You had to be very dedicated to those downloads is all I'm saying.
10% popups
That's my day now
I wrote a detailed walkthrough once, and I do mean WROTE. Resident Evil 4 on GameCube, 64 pgs., handwritten with pen and college-rule paper. I still take notes on complex games, but never since did I write a full walkthrough.
I should clarify, that was 64 sheets, fronts and backs, so, effectively 128 pgs.
This video takes me back...going to a store trying to look up game magazines (or that ever so handy FFx text guide you mentioned) when stuck on some point and Dial up internet especially lol
His accent made it sound like he was saying naughtys🤣🤣🤣
Well I'm french and I have no clue how 00's is actually supposed to be pronounced, and "naughtys" or "naughties" is what I got from this video! :)
So what is it supposed to be? no-ties? like sixties or seventies except you say "no" for 0?
@@tawksoul8489 Noughties. :)
As a 35 year old....I can relate to ALL OF THIS!
As a 12 year old, so can I.
Loved those FAQS. I still use them today and a number of them were so witty and well written that they were even fun to read!
I love this channel and this segment especially. Thanks Rob.
oooh, remember that time the world ended?
Lots of fireworks that day, it was pretty amazing..
Like flat earthers got a realization that the things they believe are BS 😅
As I'm watching this my internet is playing up big time. 10/10 maximum immersion
Thank you Rob. I needed this.
Those written guides are well etched in my memory. I could always rely on the table of contents leading me to the exact part I needed help on.
10:50 "The Ethernet cable currently plugged into my laptop-"
Younger viewers, Laptops never used to have wireless.
Even if they did, we all fought for the ethernet cable anyway, wireless connections were unreliable as ****.
Rob talking about his past it's like looking in a mirror. A dark evil mirror of my own past.
I used to play Mirrors Edge on an old CRT tv for the longest time and when I was finally able to plug my PS3 into a 22" 720p monitor my life changed. The jump was almost as huge as the jump from 2D to 3D in the 90s. I will never forget that.
I've lived through video game arcades in the 80's, the rise of Nintendo and the fall of Sega, the move from cartridges to DVD's, but I have to say the HD clarity thing stuck with me as well.
When my wife and I bought our first flat-screen TV after all channels went digital, I was stunned at how everything looked. The first thing I saw I plugged it in was a golf tournament. The grass were so green and the sky was so blue it was ridiculous! Then I put on "Catherine" on my PS3 and was absolutely incredulous! Good times, man!
FRIDAY HAS ARRIVED =D
(cheers Rob and team for another banger!)
Lol...that FFX walkthrough....I had so many flashbacks when that came on screen I almost fell on the floor and had a seizure.
My EyeToy window washing technique was just windmilling a tea towel, it was unbeatable! My brothers hated me. 😂
Dude i feel sooooooo old now.
It was amazing.
liked and subscribed 3 seconds after the video ended.
👌
Aaah Eyetoy the memories
Ya that old school faqs were amazing
I never played Guitar Hero, never wanted to. However my first bit of serious gaming was on PS2, and it was Drakan The Ancients Gates, and that game made me a gamer.
Also my first HD gaming was on PS4 and the game was WWE 2K16.
Drakan was SO FREAKING GOOD.
I desperately want a remake.
@@reyennarhel2505 I know me to, Order of The Flame, which would be entirely new to me, and The Ancient's Gates. That was the first video game I played that heard music scored on real instruments. Also the first one that had a dragon who wasn't all evil. Arokh was a boss and Rynn was just badass.
I do and don't miss the old guides, it is sooo easy now, yet there was a craftmanship about the old ones that should have been appreciated more.
These are all so relatable! I love it!
4:59. Yeah. Sure thing, Rob. "90%".
