Pokemon.

They get burnt, frozen, stuck in earthquakes, poisoned, self-destruct, electric-shocked, physically beaten to a pulp, hit by the mysterious force of a hyper beam, sat on by Pokemon thousands of times bigger than themselves, bitten, scratched and made to live inside a ball; yet the fuckers still won't die.

TrendyGamers5208d ago (Edited 5208d ago )

They don't die, they just 'faint'. Makes it seem less gruesome.

matthewjgildea5208d ago

The idea of any Pokemon breeding with a ditto; now that's gruesome!

And fainting must be quite the ordeal for Pokemon. Not like humans who faint at the sight of blood or a cute opposite-sex attraction. Humans suck.

Vamp from metal gear solid was a pain in the ass.

TrendyGamers5207d ago

Especially when you consider the fact that a Ditto can be male or female in the breeding process.

Well yeah.. imagine playing pokemon yellow again.. Your 5.

You are fighting a Charizard with your Pikachu....

Suddenly it is defeated and the promt says

YOUR PIKACHU IS MAULED FEROCIOUSLY BY CHARIZARD!

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TRAUMATIZING THAT WOULD BE?

Spitfire_Riggz5207d ago

Lol I remember visiting the grass between pallet town and veridian city with my level 100 pokemon killing level 3 pidgey.

You could have mention loads of Characters, from Gears,Metal Gear Solid, Halo or Infamous and etc...

Most of them are just from FF

GamePodunk5207d ago

Only the first one is from FF.

The rest are from completely different series.

"Why won't you die"

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle39d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Personally, I'd rank Pacific Rift in my top 10. It's the best of the series.

badz149461d ago

We desperately need Motorstorm back. Evolution is no more though and this makes me sad

Cacabunga461d ago

Sly Thieves in Time
Stay the Party
Portal 2
Dj Hero
Demon’s Souls
God of war Ascension

rudero460d ago

2 of those games got railed through the “gaming media” during release.
Sly and god of war.
Both of which were fantastic games.

Cacabunga460d ago

Ascension is VERY underrated. Remake please!

Venoxn4g461d ago

Decent list.. I would put the Castle Crashers as well..

1Victor460d ago

Yes it’s a decent list of popular games with a heavy hand on FPS and no Warhawk or Starhawk 2 of the best games (not sale wise) on ps3.
I would buy a Starhawk again even if it didn’t have a graphics upgrade hell I would even take a new one with micro transactions 😱🤯

Profchaos461d ago

I've noticed a recent nostalgia for the PS3 and I don't get it for me it's been my least favourite generation to date and I've been gaming since the NES I just feel like the ambition of the developers outweighed the capabilities of the consoles so I remember lots of games running in the lower end of 20fps range and I remember for the first time ever actually disliking the duelshock 3 and it's curved triggers

Sure there were some standouts and great games but that's the only gen I switched entirely to PC gaming

darthv72460d ago

Maybe the recent nostalgia is because pretty much all of its games are trapped on that console. People want to play them on more modern hardware. hell... if XB can do it then so can Sony. there are competent emulators out there that can run on PS4/5 hardware but Sony just wont let them become official... why is that?

If we are talking least favorite generations (personally) then this one is certainly mine. i had more fun playing 8th, 7th and 6th gen stuff than 9th. And it isnt like i dont have access to do so... the heavy hitters just havent shown up anywhere close to those previous gens. The few here and there just doesnt cut it compared to the likes of constant good games that showed up in 6th, 7th and 8th gen. hell.... I'll even throw in 5th gen has been better than this one.

Profchaos460d ago

I tend to agree there's lots of amazing games locked to the PS3 like GTA IV or mgs 4 but then again my issue was never with the content the PS3 had but rather it's performance many other people have said the PS3 felt like it couldn't walk and chew bubblegum at the same time using PSN and downloading a game could take a few minutes to just start a download.

I typically don't worry all that much about performance I've never had a problem with games that run at 30 but games like crysis 2, Skyrim are good examples where the performance was so unstable you would never even touch the top of the frame cap and the hitching was worse than say Goldeneye on the n64

I think emulation is more than possible on the ps5 though it's just that Sony has no incentive to rush it's development it will likely be a ps6 feature if it ever happens at all.

But yeah the 9th gen has been so bad from a content perspective thats a given I see constant articles where people are frequently expressing their disappointment around the industry as a whole right now to much live service competition that sinks longstanding studios and consumes Devs time less ambition and games cost so much to make they have to play it safe.

The 5th gen was easily better than the 9th we had some all time greats crash, Spyro, Tony hawk, mgs, Mario,64, Goldeneye, Mario kart 64 the list goes on. The 5th gave us a new dimension and I remember being blown away by how much more open gaming had become the 4th gen with the mega drive and SNES was great and very easy to still revisit some of the greatest games of all time came out like earthbound, secret of mana, sonic , Mario world etc but saving our games was still not a standard function or a given so gaming was still evolving but it was very impressive to see some of the tricks Devs used like dithering to give us new experiences those earlier gens limitations bred innovation.

Michiel1989460d ago

if XB can do it so can sony? I didn't know xbox had a cell processor in their older consoles, that's the reason why ps3 was so cool, but also the reason why games are hostage there and no, xbox did nothing similar even though their backward compatbility is good, they always had a similar architecture to their consoles.

darthv72459d ago

Sorry Michael... I guess you missed the obvious part where i said there are already emulators out that do this. and that is what XB is doing... emulators for OG and 360 games. Its why the full slate is not BC on XBO/Series.

coolbeans460d ago (Edited 460d ago )

The list is missing Folklore.
