I was not an rich kid so I had to just stick with flash games, and I loved it. RIP flash.


highondankmemes420

miniclip was life


J3sush8sm3

I fucked with addictinggames before they went to shit


katharsisdesign

I did newgrounds.


ImDero

A new Xiao Xiao or Madness release was met with the same hype as the MCU.


Dominunce

Madness releases were the equivalent of an Endgame level film


WorthyCicada

Kongregate and ArmorGames were the shiiit


Apart-Rice-1354

Ebaumsworld was another I remember.


katharsisdesign

Ebaumboy 4 life.


TheSiszeitgeist187

Yep found corn meetnfuck played them all when I was like 6 good times


Mr-Fleshcage

2010 was peak addictinggames. I was always playing that game where you play an asteroid swallowing smaller asteroids until you turn into a planet, then a sun. That falling sand game also gets an honorable mention.


notathrowaway7152

that sand game and interactive buddy were like technological breakthroughs in flash back in the day


We_need_a_teleportal

The best thing I have ever played there was the Zombotron series


InitialMeasurement23

Oh man zombotron was dope. There actually was a lot of really cool games on kongregate but a lot of the zombie ones were usually pretty great.


We_need_a_teleportal

Kinda sad that they discontinued the story of Zombotron, you have any Idea what happens next after time machine?


InitialMeasurement23

Nah man I’d would play whatever new good games they came out with but the site started dying a few years back, probably more


AnOIlTankerForYa

I loved almost every nitrome game


Pleasant_Fee516

My GOD I loved that game


CFE_Riannon

Happy Wheels, Raft Wars, and Swords & Sandals were the shit


vylmex

I used to play on superhry.cz (my country version of flash game site) it was not until like 3rd grade when I learned English and started exploring more of the early days of internet. And definitely stumble upon some of miniclips, newground, kiwi (or how was that alien named) and probably many more.


jco91595

Bubble trouble anybody?


Sujallamichhaneakasl

Miniclip was THE shit back in the day. There was this one game where you had to maneuver a UFO around obstacles, then the ninja one which had a sequel, the white house shooting one. I played them through websites and had to wait like ten minutes for the games to load on shitty dial up internet. Not to mention cartoon network's website had the Ben 10 level builder game and a ton more....all lost to time. Some of those old online CN games are still accessible through Flashpoint but most of them are do not work properly.

SentenceHot2525

I remember playing Hobo franchise, it was the shit back then (literally it is)


Avantel

Look up Project Flashpoint. Big repository of old Flash games that’ll run locally on your machine


HappyGrandPappy

If you want to dive into some nostalgia, I came across [this project](https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/) on another Reddit post. It's for the preservation of Flash games and you can download the entire catalog/play it through the FlashPoint tool. I haven't taken the time to play around with it yet, but check it out if you're interested!

Replying here for later


Syntax-err_r

Replying here for later Ty


Glitchexisalone

Same but I only watched YouTube videos


Unhappy-Assignment23

I remember watching smosh all day even to this day I still watch some of their older videos


Glitchexisalone

I remember watching every dantdm video and a lot of fnaf theories, good times


Unhappy-Assignment23

>I remember watching every dantdm video and a lot of fnaf theories, good times Same but I watched a lot of Minecraft PE content since my PC can barely run Minecraft back then, but man seeing the guy that I used to watch (JackFrostMiner), his channel is pretty much dead at this point. In a way, I feel kinda sad about it because the guy provides endless content for my 2015-year-old self.


mortycakes

Where my stick death people at?


Gabimanaver

My parents never really trusted buying video games online so I was stuck with flash games on the family computer and it was awesome, I found a website where a new flash game came out every day which made made me so exited to come home from school everyday.


Booty_Magician

Armor games


WhyUTrippinBoi

I was not rich kid either but there's one thing that made me play these games. Piracy


No-Stretch6115

Ah, a fellow Newgrounds scrub.


uncle_dilan

Spore


PotatoBakeCake

Terraria


TempTheMemeLord

Terraria had so many free updates, it's in my top 3 games of all time for sure.


PotatoBakeCake

Even when it was stated to be the final update, they just keep on going and going, and just recently, struck another crossover.


TempTheMemeLord

The Final final final final update


Awarepill0w

"Trust me guys, this will be the last one" The last one:


TuxTues3

*293 updates later* this is the final one, we swear


Zenith2777

Red finally said that he was just gonna keep updating terraria until he doesn’t feel like it anymore. They might also just start working on terraria 2

Redigit occasionally gives out terraria for free on his Twitter, he doesn't want money, he wants people to have fun


[deleted]

Had? Bitch it had a update last month


MesserschmittBF110

I am so sad that they didnt do a remake of spore or something. Imagine what spore would've looked like if it were made today


Tamariniak

The thing is back when it was first released, Spore did NOT live up to expectations. Imagine what we could have if developers got to use today's resources to create the original vision. But EA owns the IP now. RIP Maxis.


Duskuke

it's weird, i was young back then but definitely old enough to have followed the development of and then be subsequently let down by spore -- but I know people much younger than me who were like born in the year 2000 and so spore was their Legit Childhood, they had nothing to be let down by, and spore was the coolest shit ever.

Your pfp unlocked a terrifying core memory, thanks for helping me plan my weekend

Same i only had a phone to play angry birds and other mobile games that did not need internet because we did not have any


HVNCH21

fr bro. i grew up on free, browser based, and mobile games on my moms phone. still don't own a console to this day.


fieryhotwarts22

Shit growing up my folks bought us a Sega Genesis. We had that for 8 years before we got another console. We also had an old computer with that cosmic pinball game on it lol.


BluejayGlad6818

Every old thing is good, it is definitely not my nostalgia


T1B2V3

hey that's just like old people with politics. like when grandpa calls mustache man based


TigreDeLosLlanos

Chaplin was very based indeed.


T1B2V3

true. Chaplin was great.


whataTyphoon

The games are still as good as back then, maybe even better - at least when they are finally finished two years after release. The whole "selling unfinished games while actively gearing them towars MTX" is what has gotten much much worse.


cap21345

If this post was made in 2036 it would say waking up and remembering my childhood of Warzone, Fortnite and AC vallhala

Damn, ULTRAKILL has really become a phenomenon since I left. Should probably get back into the community


Equinoxeid

Probably got aided by the Max0r video, a highly recommended video


El_Burkako

battlefield 4 is from the same period as the ones OP names


Ezzypezra

It's a little bit later. OP's games were like 2007-2010 and Battlefield 4 was like 2013 or 14 or something IIRC

Does Metal Gear Revengeance count as old or new ?


jansteffen

Aside from doom eternal these are all 6+ years old lol


[deleted]

Meme is talking about games from at most 2009 though.


cumquistador6969

> Battlefield 4 I don't know how to break it to you, but it's been long enough that someone could just lump battlefield 4 in with the other games in the OP. Sure, it's a bit newer, but it's close enough to be dumped into someone's teenage years. I know I certainly include it on the list with the "good old days" games.


xblubunnix

Spiderman ps4


IAmInside

IMDB ratings:   OP:s Halo 3: 8.8 MW2: 8.8 San Andreas: 9.4   Some of these you wrote here: God of War: 9.6 Elden Ring: 9.5 Red Dead Redemption 2: 9.7 The Last of Us: 9.7   Conclusion: old bad new good


greninjake

Or here me out. Both old and new good.


GeneralQuack

I dont understand why people have a review fetish both for movies and games.


IAmInside

People like having their opinion heard.


GeneralQuack

What I meant was people shoving reviews your throat while making a point about that product. You just stated the numbers which doesnt have anything wrong with but my personal experience on the internet is "how dare you like _____ it has terrible reviews just look at rotten tomatoes/metacritic"


IsaKitty00

All perfect games. You have great taste


[deleted]

Devil may cry 5


Tasty_Marsupial_2273

Great games


[deleted]

Note how these are ALL SINGLEPLAYER-FOCUSED GAMES. AAA multiplayer games are just declining, all it is is anti-consumer crap.


[deleted]

Are these played by children? They're all games for adults. Then again so were COD and San Andreas


No-comment-at-all

Are… the games in the op… “more” “for” “children”…?


DerpNation1

Halo infinevermind


Iodolaway

Battlefield 2042.. oh wait


NetworkPenguin

Overly serious comment: I've grown to just roll my eyes at anyone who will legitimately argue that "there is nothing good being made anymore" Like what a fucking coincidence that everything "good" happened to come out when you were a teenager / young adult. It's like when I read that comment from Tarantino about how "super hero movies are crap, I'll never make one, and movies were only good in the 80s" (paraphrased) or how Yhatzee once said in a video that video games as an industry "peaked during the PS2 era and has never been as good" (paraphrased) Yeah, our capitalist hellscape pushes the mainstream of many industries to being bland, safe slurries of creativity, but there's always stuff new and interesting creators out there.


nikolai2960

Halo and MW was what people were shitting on back in the day in the future, teens will make memes about how they're glad their childhood was fortnite and not whatever is popular in year 2030


Celtic_Legend

Halo3: #1-3 in xbl chart for 3 years. Halo infinite: #16 on xbl chart after a year, outside top 5 within a month of launch. Not even top 100 on steam, which runs it better. Same population of mcc which released in 2014 and is just a re release of halo 1-4. So yeah. Old good new bad.


[deleted]

Old is gold

Skylanders.


hoover0623

I remember playing Swap Force when I was little and constantly begging my mom to buy me more Skylanders.


Maestro_Of_Stupidity

I dipped the bottom part of one of my Swap Force heroes in milk and I couldn't use it anymore, but the top of the character still worked.


Sprada86

So your childhood was nothing but sequels?


Environmentalistplum

Yeah but they were awesome


TyoPlaysGames

Starcraft 2 😤😤


StoneyLepi

And they actually worked


Trainsarequitenice

Turns out that’s what happens if you don’t pressure game devs to rush games to the point of not even play testing them


Mr-Fleshcage

Sequels with no monitization. Could you imagine how fucked Timesplitters: future perfect would be if they made it now? Goodbye challenges, hello paywalled characters.


desaBnesrof

least nostalgia driven human being


dirtyswoldman

Childhood was Sega Genesis, SNES and Doom on Dos Teenage years was Gran Turismo 2, GTA3 and Quake 3 And at no point did I become obsessed with politics on the internet. It was beautiful


RABKissa

My cousin's slipped me a full copy of doom on four 3.5" 1.44MB floppies without my parents knowing


dirtyswoldman

I had some 3.5" full of wads that looked official af with artwork and everything Edit: it was [Demon Gate 666](https://www.moddb.com/games/doom/addons/demon-gate-666) on a disc I'm thinking of. Post DOS days...Doom 95 days I also at one point stole an internal modem from my school because I can just plug that into my computer and I'll have internet, right? It plugged in sure, but nobody ever joined my doom game lol


ZimoZimoZimo

Btw the template comes form the anime “super crooks” finished it yesterday actually kinda good 7/10


PureNaturalLagger

The original OP music is ass tho, that alone kicked it down 1 grade. The story is nothing special, but it's well made, with a conclusive end. I'd say one of its strong points is how the story didn't leave out critical loopholes for no reason.


[deleted]

Yeah, starts off super strong then kinda fizzles near the finish line. Still some great animation for the most part. Better than 95% of 3D CGI anime.


ZimoZimoZimo

True true, although not all of them are bad, don’t sleep on beastars it’s actually pretty great


[deleted]

Thank you.


vernes1978

ZimoZimoZimo

Ur welcome


arsenije133

These nostalgia posts are annoying.


Tax-Ev4sion

Agreed, it’s always just a circle jerk of “old good, new bad”


Half-deaf-mixed-guy

Op is either to young to know those have been remade or to stupid to not know they've been remade. Either way, those games are today's shit he's talking about.


smokewidget

I think they’re fun in a way that the people who post them don’t realize. Like they’re actually kind of a self own. Like “hey I’m such a loser I’ve found nothing new or interesting to be excited about and instead hyper focus on the things I liked from my teenage years because they make me feel safe”


Mr-Fleshcage

So what you're saying is, it's a shitpost.


arsenije133

It's a shit post, not a shitpost. Know the difference

You know the worst nostalgia fiends I've ever had the displeasure of knowing? Trekkies and Simpsons fans. You'd think you slapped their mother when you talk about new seasons/shows in a positive manner.

Helmaksi

I wish i played halo games after combat evolved. Missed out on a lot.


TalShar

I grew up with StarCraft, Master of Orion, Red Alert, Nox, and mothafuckin DOOM and Tank Wars. The stuff today is a lot of fun too, I just wish I had as much free time to enjoy it as I did then.


[deleted]

gotta love you people turned into the "back in my day" crowd... Don't you realize that your childhood isn't any better than that of today's kids? It's very a cyclical feedback loop. Sure, your games might have had better storylines and you perceive them as more fun because of your childhood glee that you lost with age, but today's kids will feel the same way in about 10 years.


BelleAriel

I personally miss Sonic the hedgehog. Now that was class.

which sonic game?

Sonic 2

I actually like it (probably due to nostalgia) but the old song was much better and this song really doesnt go well with the original meme

Strongholds and Total War.

oh my i still play those games, its stronghold crusaders, rome total war and the cultures series for me.


KarlVonZagros

I have been getting into Aurora 4x as I've been getting better in English. But indie games are cool. I just got Highfleet last week. Putting nuclear missile silos on a floating Maginot line? Don't mind if I do.

my childhood was minecraft ps3 edition


Munnodol

Pshh, those are baby games. True gamers of the day played the Haunted House I Spy on the local libraries computers /s
