games still stuck on old consoles

[Kyle Nuva]

the older ratchet and clank series
my ps2 was dying and only could play some games
i wanted to play dead lock again but it woulnt load, it was stupid slow

i got code lyoko and had to boot it up 20 times before it worked
and i got stuck on a trashy level

motor mayhem
great game, a bit more was planned but never saw the light of day or a sequel

vigilante 8
this game was neat but the levels and gameplay was ass

thunder tanks was good too but also very flawed

battle tanx
another that can and should be better

star wars clone wars
after replaying this again, the tank controls were god awful
and the difficulty sucked too

hydro thunder
there isnt boat racing. why?

gundam battle assault, gundam vs zaku
i didnt play them all, but the games i did play were pretty bad
and gundam has grown since then
breaker was ♥♥♥♥ with the constant grinding, leveling up and the horrible damage sponge

blast corps

wild metal country

star wars star fighter
SW also has tons and tons of ships
there is another fighter game but i hated it

still no SW beat em up like smash bros...

omega boost

power drome

splashdown with jetski's that one was fun

soul reaver

As long as you have all the original discs, this should help:

Ratchet and Clank are playable on the PS3 through the collection (and deadlocked through digital rerelease).

If you want games stuck on old consoles, look at the Wii U/3DS virtual console. So many classic games are now going to become a lot harder to play legally without spending a pretty penny. Megaman &Bass for example, your only means of playing it is through hunting down a GBA copy of it. Same for the DS AC, pretty much any of the previous pokemon games (aka the only ones actually worth playing really)

Sony/Xbox are super cool with keeping their ps3/360 stores up, making a lot of their games still relatively easy to access legally (especially with Xbox thanks to their backwards compatible stuff)

Shadow the hedgehog isn’t backwards compatible on Xbox one or even series x even though it came out on the original Xbox it’s sucks cause after seeing gameplay like in 2019 I want to play it so bad.

Personally I wouldn't recommend the HD rereleases as they're very buggy and in Gladiator's case (AKA Deadlocked) the game speed (not framerate, mind) plummets whenever there's too much action on screen and almost all cutscenes are bugged.

If your PS2 dies, at least you have alternatives.
Most PS2 games are DRM-free and easy to dump with most DVD drives. Also most play decently even on low-end PCs now.

OG XBox games, on the other hand, are the exact opposite. Ffs, why Micro$oft choose Midtown Madness 3 as the XBox' exclusive launch title?!

Azure Dreams PS1 Criminally Underrated and deserved more love.

Ogre Battle March of the Black Queen PS1 Edition The godfather of Tactics Ogre and FFT. More complicated than both games, better than both games, but real time strategy. Because it was RTS and because of the limited releases, it never got enough traction in the US, but the game is MORE than a masterpiece.

Breath of Fire 3 Come on really Capcom? With all the re-releases this has got to be a no brainer. Why was this series put on mobile? Ya'll are crazy over there.

N.E.C. PC-98 Touhou games. Kinda disappointed that Just-Some-Lego didn't mention it first with that Marisa Kirisame profile picture 'n all. I mean, I guess you could argue that the PC-98 is not technically a console per se, but for all modern practical intents and purposes, it may as well have been.

Also, like, why in the heck hasn't little Samson been ported off of the N.E.S. I mean, sure, it might not have been commercially successful on initial release, but that's common for end of lifecycle console games, and there is clearly a demand for it now even if there wasn't back then.

Also, Pocky & Rocky 2.

Ogre Battle March of the Black Queen PS1 Edition The godfather of Tactics Ogre and FFT.

To be fair, you have to specify the original playstation edition since that was a remake of a Super Famicom game, which (to be fair, much like Ratchet and Clank) kind of brings into question as to whether or not games which had any remakes should really count or not.

It never crossed my mind since PC-98 Touhou has always been really weird in terms of releases. Only available through doujin markets/cons, the physicals now being extremely expensive, it was never that available of a series until th6 broke through in popularity. Doujin series by nature are very limited in their releases if you don't upload them digitally through steam/other online markets.
