merthyr1831, do games w Why are $70 AAA games slashing prices so drastically?

Unbound is an exception because 1. it’s not super new, and 2. it did quite poorly iirc

Personally got it at £30 and even then it ran poorly on my Steamdeck at lowest settings so I wasn’t interested :(

They’re showing their true value.

Unbound was basically dead on arrival, its practically just heat with re-shade and barely any actual new content.

SynopsisTantilize,

With the same shitty unoptimization I might add. These games were horribly optimized for what they are. My 8750 and 1060 should not be struggling with this game at 1080p

It’s called idiot tax. (hint: not the discounted price)

These are old games

The price regularly seen is just there to make them seem that they have more value than they actually do

Video games changed so much during the 90s. I feel like this describes a single year.

cRazi_man,

Soundtracks have always been fire though. I still have the Streets of Rage 2 soundtrack, Red Alert soundtrack, Sim City 3000, etc in my playlist.

Damage,

Carmageddon’s sound track was made by Fear Factory 🔥🔥🔥🔥

anomnom,

Nine in Nails did the music and sound fx for quake.

I feel like it might have started the trend, but I’m not sure.

Edit: also, I hadn’t thought about fear factory in decades. Time to get double bass drummed right back to high school!

Megaman 2 for me. Shit was hard but I still listen to the soundtrack

MegaMan 2 isn’t a 90’s game though.

Any of the Legacy of Kain games

xkbx,

You gotta change that book to encyclopedia size. The amount of shenanigans you can’t explain without going into the other tomfoolery Amy Hennig and the rest of those wacky geniuses came up with…

AngryCommieKender,

Did Soul Reaver 3 ever come out?

xkbx,

Legacy Of Kain: Defiance is the closest we’ll ever get ༼;´༎ຶ ۝ ༎ຶ༽

Still love all those games, though

This has been Gothic for me, although it missed the 90’s mark by just a bit

Sir_Premiumhengst,

Dito. And Gothic 1 is from '98

For me it’d be Driver 1 and 2 followed by Lost World: Jurassic Park for the PS1.
The beat for Driver 1’s San Francisco theme just slaps

Spin the roulette wheel of all Sonic games.

TachyonTele,

The snowboarding level, and the carnival stage.

blackbelt352,

Lol which one, there’s like a dozen of each of those themes!

TachyonTele,

That’s the best thing about them!

jmcs, (edited )

In the 1990s the only Sonic level with snowboarding was Ice Cap zone.

blackbelt352,

And Robotnik Winter Zone in Triple Trouble, and Ice Cap from Sonic Adventure, City Escape from SA2, and White Acropolis in Sonic 06, and the entirety of the Sonic Riders games.

vivavideri,

I was doodling that little blue fucker on a snowboard all through 1st grade lmao.

I still listen to this music when working. Puts me right in the mood

Maybe if the book was eight times taller

jonathan,

The book is from the game and actually only has 2 pages in it.
