B0NK3RS, to retrogaming in I miss console ads being this weird
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

There were some bizarre ads from around the late 90s to early 00s.

The Dreamcast Barber comes to mind.

B0NK3RS, to patientgamers in [Meta] Did we drop the "what are you playing" monthly thread? Also, mods haven't been active for a while, should someone take over?

Psychonauts 2 is amazing. I had a really good time playing it and my kids were completely engrossed in it by my side.

To me it feels like a big drop in activity on Lemmy over the past 6 months? So the weekly and monthly post are being forgotten and some are letting standards slip.

The HDD in my Xbox One S was starting to die so I decided to swap it for an SSD. Surprisingly easy to do with just a torx screwdriver and a spudger. So now I’m starting Red Dead Redemption again as I got so close to completion but didn’t quite finish the story.

B0NK3RS, to games in The N64
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

N64 is one of my favourites but also the hardest to go back to after all these years.

B0NK3RS, to games in What are some excellent free games/total conversions that are worth playing the whole thing?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

Never heard of BAR before so thanks for this. Looks amazing and can’t wait to try.

B0NK3RS, to games in Who is subscribing to Game Pass, PS Plus and Nintendo Switch Online, and why?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I have barely any subscriptions for anything anymore and once Gamepass expires (I did the £1 upgrade offer) I will not renew.

I just chop and change to whatever I want for the month but overall I don’t really use many paid services anymore.

B0NK3RS, to games in What are some eras of gaming that you've stopped feeling nostalgic for?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

Even though I grew up with 8/16bit I’ve never really had any nostalgia for it apart from a select few games.

B0NK3RS, to patientgamers in Patient gamers, what are your favourite city builders?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar
  • Ostriv
  • Banished
  • Surving the Aftermath
  • Frostpunk
  • Planetbase

Smaller scale than Cities Skylines and also have other gameplay mechanics but that’s how I like it.

@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I’m the same way with games that just get overwhelming and I loose interest.

Ostriv is another game like Banished where it is smaller scale so you might like that too.

B0NK3RS, to patientgamers in Is anyone still playing Command and Conquer Generals (+ Zero Hour)?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I played it lots back in the day. I was watching a random Twitch stream last night for C&C Generals multiplayer. 5 player skirmish was just an absolute frenzy.

B0NK3RS, to patientgamers in What's your favourite era for video games?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

It’s still there but with family instead friends now. My kids won’t get the same experience though which is sad.

B0NK3RS, to patientgamers in What's your favourite era for video games?
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

Probably the period of '95 thought to '05. Mostly because they were the days of local multiplayer with friends and also the jump in technology made things even more interesting.

Combined we had all the 4 player games on the N64. So Goldeneye, SSB, F-Zero, Mario Kart, Snowboard Kids, DK Racing, Perfect Dark, WCW vs NWO and more.

B0NK3RS, to games in The PlayStation 2
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I didn’t own a PS2 until about 2006 when I lived with my girlfriend (now wife!) but even then it was replaced with an Xbox 360 the next year.

I’m a Dreamcast and GameCube kid and I do love the PS1 but just haven’t got any nostalgia for PS2.

B0NK3RS, to games in Cities Skylines 2: "Beach properties assets are all gone and my city is screwed. Thanks a lot."
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I haven’t played it yet and every time I get reminded of the game it’s because of something like this…

I’m glad you went with that and not on a history lesson…
