Damn, Jedi Outcast used to be my favorite game for a looooong time. I remember so many online sessions and LAN parties with one on one lightsaber duels.

We'd always bow at the beginning of a duel. So many awesome memories, what a game.

When they announced new star wars like 10 years ago I really hoped for a Kyle Katarn story. Seeing what they've done though I'm glad they left him alone
Yeah, but the blaster bits before you get a lightsaber, ugh.
The 'relative' aiming system just really puts me off.

Star Wars Galaxies Emu is still going strong, and is more recently undergoing a massive renovation with one private server expanding/reworking parts of it.

Just yesterday, I started Zelda BoTW for the Nth time.
I know it's not as old as this meme, but damn, it is 9 years old.
Edit: Well the meme is probably a day old, but you get what I mean.
Recently I've been playing through games that I couldn't afford as a kid, or my parents couldn't afford to buy for me. For example I never really played SNES because according to my parents I already had a nintendo (NES). I downloaded a SNES emulator and have been playing Chrono Trigger, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Maui Mallard etc. I've been having fun.

That's how my newer games look at me as I say I have nothing to play. So I boot up an old game.
Actually, I have no time to commit to a new game. So I play games I'm familiar with that I can pick up after being away for 2 months with zero issues.
this is pretty much why I play retros anymore. I can take save states and just come back months if not years later.
This guy used to have the broccoli cut
Oh and he was live action
That was just the standard attractive white male actor in the 90s. Even Pierce Brosnan had that cut when he was James Bond.
Also, I think the sides are a little too long and the top not nearly curly enough to be considered a broccoli cut, but I'm also quite blind to these sorts of fashion trends so maybe I'm wrong.
No you're right. I thought Brosnan's was shorter but maybe Jonathan Frakes would count as this too.
I retract my statement
He's not amused
I wish it were easier to mod current-gen QoL features into older games.
Burnout 3: Takedown holds up so well though
What kind of QoL features do you mean? Gameplay features?
This past month, I set up JKII to run in super ultrawide with high res textures and fixing the reticule position by dragging and dropping a few files.
Set up Splinter Cell Enhanced to glow up the PC version of the game.
There are other examples, like the X-Wing / TIE mods.
In these cases, my own goal has been to adapt the games to modern systems / formats while preserving the core gameplay.
Joke's on you. I replayed Outcast and Academy just last month with the Team Beef VR mod.
Gah, I need to do that one still- it got updated to work with PCVR as well, right? I am curious how it works with the saber dismemberment set to max, so touching anything is an instakill. Playthroughs with that were so tense in the last few missions

I'm currently playing all of the Ratchet & Clank games in rpcs3, upscaled to 4k resolution. They look and play great! 😍
After that, it's gonna be time for the Jak & Daxter series in the OpenGoal engine.
Just did a run through Freelancer.
Might hop on the Dosbox and fire up EGA Trek later.
Everytime I fire up Freelancer I love love love it. It's an incredibly good game. Pity that Crossfire is such a monstrous increase in difficulty from the get-go, I am still stuck on the first missions because I keep giving up.

omgeeeee, this game was the best!!
Exultation: Correct, Master! My memory cores whirr with satisfaction at your impeccable assessment.
Are you kidding me, i have installed Morrowind, Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, GTA San Andreas and Saints Row 2 on my new Build...
Ok i admit, i mod the shit out of them, but still...
Please, I play Morrowind vanilla. Actually, I play it on my Series X.
I played long time ago, i also use OpenMW now, not worth the headache config vanilla to be playable in a modern PC
I'd love an emulator so I could play it on my phone. Retroarch doesn't have a core, and as far as I can tell an android capable emulator doesn't exist.
OpenMW has an android port. You still need the original files but it does work if you have a someone capable device
Funfact: Morrowind has a pretty nice Star-Wars total conversion mod:
It's a bit buggy, weird, extremely ambitious and a lot of fun. They even managed to put in janky space flights and combat. 😄

I'm currently replaying KOTOR.
Also, Jedi Outcast in VR is awesome!
Yeah, ever port team Beef did is a master piece (except for Quake 2, but i still love the game itself, is enought to keep me playing)
I really should go back and finish Jedi Outcast.
I'm waiting for Aspyre to remaster Jedi Knight - Dark Forces 2.
I've actually been playing old games I never got to play back in the day, like Arma 2, og OFP, and Star Wars Galaxies. Also got into Guild Wars 1/reforged. It's a shame young me threw a fit over the no shared open world, because it is one of the best games and best communities I've ever encountered.

Well I think the frustration is we want novel new experiences with old world quality. Not to play the old game. Nothing wrong with playing old games. But I understand the desire for something new AND good.
Hence Expedition 33 being as well received as it was. The game was clearly made with passion, despite what you may personally think of the genre or other subjective traits.
Look, humans are good at subconscious understanding. We can tell when something is made with love and something is made with greed.
Sometimes we can't articulate it. But we know.
I play my PS2 emulator more than my $10,000 steam library these days. Kinda just waiting for GTA 6

I just played Doom 2016 yesterday. I can't believe that's ten years old now... both because damn, time flies, but also it has great graphics, better than most games today imho
I've been replaying "Divinity, Original Sin" for the past few weeks and I've been having a blast with it

I'm actually playing Shadows of the Empire on PC for the first time, am on the first Coruscant level (sewers). I think the worst the game had is behind me (Gall Spaceport and Beggar's Canyon).
