Forum Overview :: Gamerasutra :: Re: Games that didn't age well for other than technical reasons

[quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="Nick Spaz"]Mostly from reading Rafiki's writeup on The Stanley Parable and watching a retrospec on Frog Fractions. Are there any well regarded games that you look back on and realize suck now for something other than technical aging? Maybe it was a novel idea at the time but the whole package sucks after the march of time makes it not so novel any more? Games that were only good in a tiny window of time, released at exactly the right moment?[/quote] I dunno but I really liked 2400 AD back in the day, and I ran into it a few years later and thought it was still pretty ok. I gather that a lot of people thought it was dumb (as in easy, bad plot). Maybe I'll get it off <a href="https://www.myabandonware.com/game/2400-a-d-ea">here</a> and see if I can get it to work. It doesn't seem any dumber than Take No Prisoners and that was another game I played a lot. :/[/quote]
