I'll probably feel this when I start playing the new Croc remaster, since tank controls are hard to go back to, but I remember playing a ton of Croc 2 as a kid, getting lost in the hub all the time.

I had that happen to me when I tried playing MDK recently :D
This hurts so much as an adult 😪
I love seeing this happen in real time!
"We want Conker back!"
"You know Conker wasn't a good game, right?"
"You don't know what you're talking about! Conker was GREAT!"

Banjo Kazooie in 3-2-1...
Oh wow, Perfect Dark Zero had much higher metacritic scores than I expected.
I thought it would literally be a 50 - I didn't think it was a good game, I didn't think it was a bad one either - it was the most middle-of-the-road competent shooter I had played in years. I remember it getting largely hammered at release though, I suspect that had more to do with having Perfect Dark in the title and not meeting unreasonably high expectations than actually being a poor game though.
That ending song about a sex act was really weird though. The song was an absolute banger but the lyrics just had little to no context to them.
Yeah, xbox conker wasn't a good game, but N64 was.
Me knowing I'd probably like defender of the crown when I got older but it's still boring yet probably set ground we work for mount and blade
There is no reason both can't be true at the same time
You played shitty games as a kid, it's not exactly an uncommon or unrepeatable experience, I mean if it wasn't as common or relatable as it is, AVGN (and creators like them) wouldn't have been nearly as popular and successful as they are.
I went back and replayed some of the OG Metroid games (Metroid, Super Metroid, Fusion, and Zero Mission), and I'm happy to report that they are still rad a/f.
This is me with books.
If you had very low standards, and your standards are different now...then your tastes have changed.
Nah. Crash Bandicoot has always been trash.
Sounds like you played shitty games as a kid.
