CorrodedCranium, to gaming in Gaming often fetishises the new but many great things exist in the past, so let's strap into our time machines and talk about our favourite games released before say 2010?

I played Max Payne and its sequal recently and I was surprised how well they held up. The gameplay and level design kept it consistently fun

Have you considered playing a shorter singleplayer game? I find I get fatigued by how long some games can go on for whether it's multiplayer like The Elder Scrolls Online or a sandbox game like Red Dead Redemption.

Maybe you could try something like GRIS? It's a relaxing game with a neat art style that that only takes about 3 hours to beat.

That's what I am thinking. I obviously don't mean to gatekeep and say mobile gaming isn't "real gaming" but with the amount of people who have phones it's obviously going to dwarf any other category.

The article also doesn't appear to mention a time frame. If you played Pokemon GO or Worldle when they were quite popular would that count?

Mobile was the most popular platform, with 60% of online respondents playing on phones or tablets. Console and PC audiences were each about half that, with 33% of people playing on PC and 32% playing on console.

Considering mobile phone games counted I feel like that makes sense. I thought the article would be referring to devices designed specifically for gaming (ex. Xbox One, PS5, Switch, and so on)

I think that would make things worse if anything, it would basically be resetting things from the start
