After watching crowbcat's video on the great games released for the Xbox 360 (and PS3) during 2006-2011...

After watching crowbcat's video on the great games released for the Xbox 360 (and PS3) during 2006-2011, do you really want to convince me over here that the 7th generation was bad? There were great/amazing games coming out every month. Even the Wii had some interesting and legitimately great games. Why is 7th gen so hated here? It makes no sense. 8th gen was dogshit compared to 7th gen.

youtube.com/watch?v=w5u8jyPIrIY

sub 30 fps gen

eww

How well did games run on the PS2/NGC/XBOX?

It was the beginning of the end
Early 7th Gen was fine it was at the end of it is when it all turned to shit with all the cancer were still stuck with

do you really want to convince me over here that the 7th generation was bad?

only coping millennialtrannies are doing this because they missed out on it
7th gen was kino, banger after banger every single month with games that are still getting remastered for the 5th time in a row
gaming generally peaked with 7th gen: online multiplayer, genres that pretty much set the standard for decades to come (we are still playing the same open world sloppa and linear games from 20 years ago)
sure there have been shit things in every generation, in 7th gen specifically it's paid online on xbox and introduction of DLCs and mtx as publishers got used to the fact that you can just buy games online so it doesn't have to come complete in functional if you can patch it later
8th gen and 9th gen is just like 7th gen games with woke propaganda and marginally better graphics

Tendies are allergic to a mature color palette

7th gen is the Wii and two losers

condemned 1 is really underrated.

The Wii (or Wee as I like to call it) didn't have a single good game to my knowledge. It was a console for children and their moms

kids raised on wii mario because their parents though that gaming was too violent or something:

trooned out or became cucks for their used good whore wives

kids that screamed nigger in cod and halo lobbies at the age of 6:

based dudebros

after watching some faggots video on jewtube

get your own opinions zoomer retard

7th Gen was for faggots and dudebro faggots in denial. Simple as

Dreamcast games were running at 60 fps. Fuck man, Saturn and SNES games were running at 60 FPS.

cope and seethe

millenials missed out on gen 7

we were mostly grown up and had income, how exactly did we "miss out" on it? how are zooms this fucking mentally deficient?

waggleshit, RROD-box and the OG nogamestation

yeah it was fucking garbage, and its only gotten worse since.

only good thing about gen 7 was the handhelds. ds and psp was peak portables. even if the psp was mostly just good for ps1 games and porn, that was enough to make it awesome.

we were mostly grown up and had income, how exactly did we "miss out" on it? how are zooms this fucking mentally deficient?

because for early zoomers especially they either started gaming at the end of the ps2 generation or at the start of the 7th generation with the 360 or ps3
if you weren't there in your formative years you missed out anon, if you matured on old and pre-established concepts you simply wouldn't understand it which is exactly the impression I'm getting from your spiteful post

yeah it was fucking garbage, and its only gotten worse since.

any other insights?

7th generation was bad

only faggots say this

millennialtrannies are doing this because they missed out on it

I hate the millencucks just as much as any boomer and zoomer, but weren't millenials teenagers in the 360/ps3 era?the peak age for a gamer

Xbox 360

the last great good thing in gaming. Honorable mention to n3ds and psvita.
But xbox360 was the last console.

gay toddler thinks he's special because he grew up when gaming turned to shit

yeah theres simply no way we could understand or grasp halo 3, gears of war and mario galaxy. we tried to play wii sports, but our minds were too set in their ways. we will never truly comprehend the watershed cultural moment that was horse armor DLC.

there are "people" in this thread right now that were forced to grow up with gen 7 instead of the golden age of gens 4,5,6

absolutely fucking grim

xbox 360 and ps3 designs were the last time consoles looked cool. fuck look at them im getting hard just looking at them

everyone knows that the peak age for a gamer is 6 (or 4 or whatever age he started to get game at) until puberty
why? because of novelty, everything is new to you and you still have that fire in your eyes to finish the 200 hours ubisoft grindslop because you've never seen anything like it before
once the novelty wears off there are two paths: you start to focus on irl shit as you get older or you keep chasing that high in bideogams that you know will never come and get even more burned out
this is kinda why seeing someone over 40 obsessing with games is so weird and icky, everyone is entitled to their preferences in media sure but it's just cringe

yeah theres simply no way we could understand or grasp halo 3, gears of war and mario galax

exactly

but our minds were too set in their ways.

yep you were jewed from the start so you can't be saved anymore

we will never truly comprehend the watershed cultural moment that was horse armor DLC

I said DLCs are bad tho, everyone will acknowledge that
and?
in a couple of years there will be people nostalgic for fortnite anon and there's nothing wrong with that
if you were 6 year old again and got a ps4 with fortnite you would no-life that shit just like people did with cod and halo

The 2000s era wasn't bad, but the 360 was shit and rapidly degraded the quality of genres that were previously on PC.
It is really disingenuous to attribute any of these games to the 360 unless they are actually exclusive to it.
Millennials are the safe bullying target and anyone flinging shit at Millennials is usually just angry about Gen X.

in terms of how kino of a childhood you got by being the age of 5-12 while it happened:

5>>power gap>>power gap>>shit>>>>literal AIDS>

naa dude, the 360 was peek millennial. Was the last console gen before we had to grow up.

I was in college when the 360 was popping off. Had plenty of bros on the floor of my dorm that I'd play with. It became a thing to just leave your door open, and you'd just walk through the hallways and see a dude playing Gears or Goldeneye or some shit and you'd just walk in and introduce yourself and play. Was a great way to meet people. A bunch of buddies and I went launch night of Halo 3, never seen anything like that before, crazy long line. My buddy and I played that game for months doing team doubles. Most fun I ever had playing multiplayer vidya.

There was this 1 really nerdy guy on our floor who had a PS3. But none of us cared about that shit because he had no games and just used it to watch anime.

tfw born at the absolute perfect time to experience mario 64, OOT, final fantasy VII, pokemon gen 1 and 2, MGS, goldeneye, kart 64, smash

our introduction was the literal peak and we didnt even know it. feels good man

The simultaneous collapse of the Japanese video game industry and a conspiracy by Western publishers to kill enthusiast genres like RPGs and Strategy, as well as the PC platform in general, made the 7th gen the worst dark age in video game history.
Also the games all looked like shit.

Retro :)

Who gives a shit?
You can still play all those games today

The simultaneous collapse of the Japanese video game industry

I am going to press doubt in that one.

ps2, nds, psp, psvita, 3ds, pc and xbox360 sonyps3 got still good and great japanese games. I am talking about 2005-2011.

shit flinging aside, someone reccomend good wii games that dont require waggle, or have waggle that can be mapped to buttons/stick in dolphin (for example mario galaxy is very doable with the right stick as the pointer and shake mapped to a button, but WW smooth moves is impossible without a wiimote)

all Ive got right now is galaxy 1/2 geometry wars, DKCR, rhythm heaven fever and nsmbwii but theyre all pretty damn good.

playing the games today

playing the games when 3d graphics and gameplay was a brand new concept no one had experience with yet

yeah not exactly the same thing

Nope, Gen 7 was the peak of gaming. We will never reach those highs again.

I love how Catherie is just q*bert but in japan.

4 actually good games on this slopchart btw

why is xbox emulation so far behind ps2/ps3 emulation ?

Yes 7th was the worst generation you fucking subhuman zoomer

brown and piss

24 fps sub 486p

introduced dlc, microtransactions, preorder bonuses and patches on consoles

Most fps devolved into 2 weapon limit regenerating health crap

obsession with openworlds which is ass

stealth and rts genre died with a wet farts like c&c4, hitman absolution, splinter cell conviction/blacklist

rise of snoy qte movie shit

le dark and edgy storylines

japs trying to get cod audience releasing turds like re6/DmC/ng3re

consolisation of pc franchises like crysis/fear with their sequels being pure console slop

the begining of soulscancer

your experience with the games won't be the same because of [external factors that aren't related to games]

Retard

The Last Story
It's an ARPG

no one with a brain gives a shit about westoid hardware, please understand

japs trying to get cod audience releasing turds like re6/DmC/ng3re

Oi mate, those 3 games were release in 2012, when absolutly nobody cared about that gen anymore, everybody was already moved to pc/youtube/social media./smartphones

any game with block climbing is qbert

Shut up retard

what if masterpieces were actually.... le dogshit

heh aren't I such an insightful genius

Kys tard

Cool story, retard

media exists in le vacuum

classic zoomtard "intelligence"

gow

Lmao
Get the fuck out shit eater

7th gen was the primary generation for millennials. From oldest to youngest.

golden age

it's just AAA garbage made for the lowest common denominator

holy fuck how have I never heard of this? I really fell out of the loop in gen 7. this better be good anon, thanks

Oblivion easily clears Skyrim and Morrowind.

And you would get your shit pushed in on the hardest difficulty of GoW (funny enough, it's true whether you meant God of War or Gears of War)

Stop lying, zoomie. You've never played any of those consoles.

Oblivion easily clears Skyrim and Morrowind

The absolute state of this board. Consider suicide

I really miss IP count, deeply subnormal.

Show us games made for le misunderstood geniuses like you, faggot.

wtf multiple people are shitting in my mouth?

must be a samefag

Heavy trans vibes from your post

Here's Todd Howard jerking off over VF2 being 60 FPS.

jAl1ZyM.png - 684x736, 111.53K

the first half of dark souls, bioshock and mario galaxy were pretty damn good.

the rest is redditor trash and modern slop.

praises Morrowind and Shitrim

hates on Oblivion despite having vastly superior quest design, interactivity, reactivity, OST, artstyle, factions, exploration, and full NPC scheduling

Yep, it's a retard

It was an era of unprecedented casualization and almost every classic US studio got bought and killed by EA.

never said that i liked any form of toddslop

projection

Lmao literal retard

Translation:

I am a zoomer. These three are the only three games of that list that I played back in the day as a small child and therefore have nostalgia for. Everything else I didn't play back then and is therefore shit.

What a dogshit list
Only fnv and ng2 are good

fucking gaylo

Slit your throat

le casual games!!

Shut the fuck up you retarded shitter. Just blurting out nonsense with no basis in reality. If anything it was the completing fucking opposite. There were loads of challenging action, adventure, strategy, RPG, platformer games that gen. Honestly, it was probably the gen with the hardest games since the 8-bit days.

Gen 7 was the gen that brought back challenge, bragging rights, achievements, git gud, and no accessibility bullshit. It was the gen of Super Meat Boy, Souls games, and Ninja Gaiden Black/2. you saw retro revivals like Hard Corps Uprising and Mega Man 9 and Metal Slug XX that were way harder than any of the previous games. Gen 5 and 6 were all laid-back casual (not in a bad way) shit, and gen 4 was mostly jarpigs, with the platformer and action games being significantly more accessible.

Post your clears so I can laugh at you. Try playing on the hardest difficulties instead of babymodes you casual poser faggot

Hardest .jpg - 2540x4749, 3.42M

It was only "good" if you played generic AAA slop. The same crusty games that were in everyone's libraries. Just looking at that timeline makes me laugh. All shooters and game services from shooters. Boring slop, and the rise of modern yearly trash.

Meanwhile, 6th gen had so much fucking variety - even across different platforms.

millenichad and Ive at least tried out every game except xcom, dead space and the fatlus garbage but nice try.

god of war

hardest games of all time

Fuck off subhuman

Why doesn't anyone ever jack the xbone/series x ? I hear people say lol nogaems but that seems like bullshit to me. I feel like the hardware security Microsoft started using with the xbone and now in the series is just really tough to hack. Meanwhile Sony and Nintendo consoles always get hacked in the same generation they release

Post your 3x3 so we can all laugh at you faggot

Hey faggot, you don't need be there when a media is released to be appreciate what it does at its time.
I can still appreciate Kirby's Adventure being an impressive NES title and how it's a post-SNES NES title despite playing it few months ago

You're welcome, anon
Enjoy the game

Eat shit, 7th gen zoomer

You would absolutely get your shit pushed in on VH, retard. You probably haven't even played the games and just regurgitate shit you read from other shitters here.

There's like 50 games easier than God of War VH on that list, but you wouldn't know because you're a little poser faggot

donkey kong land is LE HARDEST GAME OF ALL TIME!!!

what fucking retard made this list

Insecure fucking loser, go jerk your dick to mario and final fantasy you little faggot

The same troglodyte who believes that codslop is remotely hard or dmc4 or ng2 on anything below MN

hating Demon's Souls and Portal 2

Kys asap

even more projection

Consider suicide you pathetic attempt at a human being.

no Operation Flashpoint

shit list

Arkham Asylum

Based, but I like City more
The combat is much, much more refined and expanded, and there is a bigger enemy variety there too

can only post blanket criticism about games he has never played

too insecure to even just post 9 games he likes

Hahaha holy shit you are such a little insecure manchild

Post your clears, at bare minimum post CoD1 Veteran, NG2 on MNM, and DMC4 DMD S-ranks since you seem to claim those are easy, yet offer zero alternatives of what's actually "hard" (as well as zero clears)

>can only post blanket criticism about games he has never played

I've 90% of your dogshit list, you absolute troglodyte. Only 2 games from it are good
Neck yourself degenerate

blanket criticism

I've totally played 90% bro, believe me!! I just have zero specific criticisms and can only spout like "SHIT!" and "SLOP!!" like a parrot

can't even post 9 games he likes

you're going to die alone and miserable lmao, deserved for being such a little woe-is-me jaded faggot

I hope your mother rots in hell

ywn experience FMV kino and elaborate summon animations in ffvii when it was the most mind blowing visuals ever put into vidya

I can appreciate the historical impact that d-day had on WW2, but its not the same thing as being on the beach that day.

It was the absolute peak of online multiplayer.

no cheaters

no third worlders

everyone had an open mic ingame

people just wanted to have fun

the universal competitive tryhard spirit wasn't a thing yet

no sbmm

can shit talk with no ban

splitscreen was still a thing

can system link 16 consoles together in a room for LAN parties

huge releases every week

devs were limited to 8MB updates, so everything was working day one on disc

You HAD to be there.

Shame your father did not beat your mom more often when she was carrying you

Cat got your tongue, subhuman?

How many of those games were really running at 60 fps? I imagine a handful ran at 60 fps, but the vast majority did not.

These are virtually all good games. Don't let miserable ageist faggots here convince you otherwise.

millenifag comparing his bing bing wahoo experience to storming the beaches of normandy IRL

thanks anon I needed a good laugh today

console shit

good games

Oxymoron

Take a recording of you booting up the game from steam/emulator and loading into the rankings with a timestamp, rhese could easily be screenshotted from any of hundreds of reddit posts or youtube videos with zero effort

Console based multiplayer was pushing lobbies, P2P and corporate servers, which ultimately ruined online multiplayer.

rhese

Why are you shaking mongoloid?

rhese could easily be screenshotted from any of hundreds of reddit posts or youtube videos with zero effort

I am sure you are able to find these pics elsewhere, since it takes no effort according to you. Now post links

post your clears!

Slit tour throat degenerate. I've proven that your are full of shit and you sub 15 iq pic is made gor retards. Die

Based on Metacritic's top 50 highest-rated video games, the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 console generation (often referred to as the seventh generation) boasts the most entries. This generation includes standout titles such as Grand Theft Auto IV (Metascore: 98), Red Dead Redemption (95), BioShock (96), Mass Effect 2 (96), Batman: Arkham City (96), and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (96) .

The seventh generation was notable for its advancements in online connectivity, high-definition graphics, and expansive open-world experiences, which contributed to the critical acclaim of many titles during this era.

Thanks grok
Now fuck off

I'm convinced that the one people who disliked the 7th gen had no one to coop with

any list that puts fucking gta, rdr and uncharted as one of the "best ever" games can be safely and wholly disregarded.

slit tour throat

KEK, hands literally shaking from adrenaline, what a little fag you are.

DMC4 is the easiest one and doesn't even have SS-ranks, so getting the S-rank is a piss-easy joke. Still no proof of CoD1 Veteran you claim was easy, still no proof those are actually yours instead of being any faceless screenshot anywhere on the internet, and still zero examples of harder games despite you claiming that MNM and DMD S-ranks are oh so easy.

If you claim these games are not hard, then post what clears you have that ARE hard. And if you actually knew any fucking thing, you would know that there are like 80 fucking games at least on that list harder than NG2 MNM (literally the hardest 3D action game of all time).

gen 5 was infinitely more fun for couch gaming

playing with "friends" over xcox live was simply sad and shallow in comparison.

dmc 4 is easy

retard literally agrees with me by saying

DMC4 is the easiest one and doesn't even have SS-ranks, so getting the S-rank is a piss-easy joke.

Do you have braindamage, subhuman?

NG2 MNM (literally the hardest 3D action game of all time).

The absolute state of 7th gen shiteating retard.

Name. A. Harder. Fucking. Action. Game.

Are you dense? Slow? Not able to understand what I'm saying? Just going to keep playing cute? Act like it's Schrodinger's difficulty where it's simultaneously piss-easy and yet you still can't name a single harder game or a single harder clear you have?

Gotcha.

and pc ruined the rest, thanks for playing

subhuman makes demands

Cute.

beating any Souls game is literally harder than getting S-ranks in DMC4. The only hard feats in any DMC games are full DMD SS-ranks or BP all characters, and even those are not much harder than Souls.

it was a fucking fromtroon all along

beating any Souls game is literally harder than getting S-ranks in DMC4.

Embarrassing
Why so you keep saying that dmc 4 is easy when I said it first. Are you retarded or what

yep, just another poser faggot who is all talk.

t-those games are all easy baby games!!

n-no I won't name any harder games or post any of my clears because I'm a little insecure faggot!!!!

It was the last good gen. Widespread adoption of online play, digital distribution of classic games via Virtual Console and XBLA, and actually decent motion controls were revolutionary. There hasn’t been a single innovation in gaming since then, unless you count mobile taking a huge piece of the pie from consoles and PC.
t. millennial who was in high school when these consoles came out

DMC4 is on that chart for BP all characters, but the S-ranks are mostly a joke (in context, still harder than shit like Contra by a mile), since the game doesn't actually have SS-rankings.

just another poser faggot who is all talk.

I posted my clears. You went silent and cameback with the abosulte subhuman cope

these are not your pics!

You absolute subhuman poser nigger

continues to say that dmc4 is easy

further proves my point

Am I speaking to a bot

This is genuinely one of the most retarded posts I have ever read and tells me that "funposting" here is your hobby.

PC games and sequels of better games from the previous gen

grim grim grim

the age of waggle

the age of toxic 13 year olds online

the age of DLC

the age of nogaemstation 3

the age of openslop cancer

the age of red ring

the age of brown and bloom

the age of w*stern trash

the age of COD

the age of smash bros brawl

the age of horse armor

the age of moviegame

I thank the fucking gods every day I grew up with gen 5/6 and grew out of gaming largely thanks to this cancer generation. now im a fully grown absolute fucking loser so ive gotten back into it and just emulate retro shit, but gaming itself has never recovered from gen 7.

claim made:

at least three clears

that the list is all easy

that there are tons of harder games

claim supported:

one "legitimate" (allegedly) screenshot

(granted NG2 is a genuinely challenging game, clearly the hardest thing you've ever done in a videogame)

claims unsupported:

one illegitimate screenshot aped from steam uploads for S-ranks (not even SS-ranks) in DMC4

never even played CoD1 on Veteran so couldn't even be bothered to try to lie about it

no other clears

no other harder games

no other harder clears

the age of brown and bloom

If DMC4 and NG2 are easy for you, that would require you to have beaten, or at the very least played, a "hard" game.... NAME THOSE GAMES.

I dunno. There was plenty of good games in the 360/PS3 gen. It had more good games than the PS4 or PS5 gen.

even in this cherrypicked pic there's brown and bloom
what a horrific gen

oblivion.jpg - 684x385, 127.5K

I mean on its own there is a lot of great games that came from gen 7.

people just shit on it because of all the awful modern day trends it started, which have only gotten worse over time. and also because the sheer number of iconic masterpieces it produced is very small compared to gen 3/4/5/6. theres a handful of great games at the top and then a bunch of garbage. where as you can just pick a random month in the mid to late 90s and there was probably multiple games coming out that are considered classics now.

(games/music/movies) was so much better when I was a child!! its been garbage ever since, heh. this surely has nothing to do with the fact I was young and retarded at the time and then became an overripe cynical faggot after I left college and had to face reality.

says every person who was ever born

divisive sentiment...ps3 is precisely the "x" where two opposing trendlines cross paths, never to meet again as tradition sinks under mass culture

I want to agree with you, but I just cannot believe that the 8th gen or 9th gen could ever be considered better than the 7th gen. I just can't see that happening.

Isn't everything just getting worse? I didn't grow up with movies from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, but they are better than movies now, right?

Every game in that dogshit generation looked like shit, ran like shit and was just shit in every regard, anyone who has nostalgia for that trash is a subhuman who should be gassed

t. retarded bing bing wahoo manchild

GTA and RDR games are objectively some of the best games ever. Do you hate those games just because they're popular?

dmc 4

Now show forest and fortuna levels, you fucking disingenuous retrad

nooooooo if you don't like the dogshit brown and yellow efpeeeese you like kids games

Kill yourself you retarded landwhale

but I just cannot believe that the 8th gen or 9th gen could ever be considered better than the 7th gen. I just can't see that happening.

Fps are not codtier slop. You have nudoom for normies and indieshit fps for trannies that are miles above any dogshit fps during 7th gen
You have amazing hitman WOA and Intravenous 1-2, Desperados if you crave stealth game unlike 7th embarrassing attempts at steatlh with hitman abostion or black list
You have Prey 2017 and Deus Ex MD for imsims which are above Bioshock slop
Even RTS genre is slowly crawling back from being dead
Japs stopped being retarded and made dmc 5 with the upcoming NG4

It was the last good gen

I'd take 7th gen any day instead of today's era of unreal engine slop.

7th gen ue3 slop era you fucking zoomeretard

do you really want to convince me over here that the 7th generation was bad?

Of course it was it only introduced shit like

always online DRM

live service games

horse armor DLC

buggy releases that will get patched later

sub 30 fps gaming as standard

halobros, codbros, kids in lobbies

huge delay between inserting disk and playing the game

killing physical releases

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, the "peak" of gaming.

but enough about Steam™

Physical releases were still very much a thing back during the 7th gen days. 8th gen killed physical releases

And the generations before that 30 fps wasn't standard? With the exception of the very earliest console generations, I'm sure 60 fps wasn't all that common either.

It might have started a ton of shit trends but at least good games were still being made. Now we get all of the drawbacks and none of the benefits

The Souls games and NG2 are the only good games on this list. I can't imagine how low your standards have to be to think any of these are noteworthy compared to even you average AA PS2 game. You're also missing Nier and picked the wrong Dead Space game.

Shut the fuck up you fucking manchild, all of those games would stand among or tower over the absolute best from prior gens.

You are a jaded manchild faggot and PS2 is what you played as a small child so you have nostalgia over those games. Gen 7 games hold up much better when played today. Every game on that list is still a timeless classic today.

Dreamcast games were running at 60 fps.

Many did, most did not.
dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6787

But after seeing Sonic Adventure 2, so pretty and running so smooth, the industry should have drawn a line: from now on, 60 is the law, the standard written in stone, 30 is defective and not fit for sale.

LBP bad

XCOM bad

God of War 3 bad

Mass Effect bad

New Vegas bad

Halo 3 bad

Portal 2 bad

Mario Galaxy bad

Catherine bad

Bioshock bad

Batman AA bad

Red Dead bad

GTA IV bad

Blow your brains out subhuman. I bet you suck off garbage like Jak & Daxter and FF7 and DMC3 too

current gen is so creatively bankrupt they can't stop demaking 7th gen ludokino

Honestly, you should think about kys

garbage like dmc3

extremely based anon

There's debate to be had for pretty much all of these, but LA Noire simply does not belong.

There's none
I love when people pretend like video games are a serious artform but the makers always to have to focus on making it fun to play and accessible, the antithesis of what makes art unique.

It was unique and innovative and had soul and that's what matters

Gen 7 overall is awful. Xbox, Sony, and western AAA are worse now (they were already inferior compared to gen 6, especially sony) but everything else is better.

Fuck gen 7

unique

innovative

Anon, films existed for over a century before LA Noire's release

Dickrides GTA IV, LBP, GoW3 and Fallout games but hates DMC3

Lobotomization.

Seethe normalfag. I tried to come up with 25 games from that gen that I would consider good and it was honestly a struggle after the first 10 or so. Any generation prior, I struggle to narrow it down.

all that gay JRPG crap and anime fighting games

AssCreed (not even the best one)

worst Prince of Persia game to date

Nah your taste is just shit. Failed normalfag weeaboo faggot taste

There's quite a few popular titles on that list, it's funny because running at 60 FPS is part of why people thought Soul Calibur felt so high quality at launch.

I bought into the Mass Effect hype at the time and played it and was just very confused because I was accustomed to games with actual gameplay and battle systems from previous gens (aka your "JRPGs"). I grew up playing actual video games so I don't have your Western kusoge biases.

single enemy slowly lumbers towards you

is one inch from you, doesn't attack

juggle him in the air with flashy animations while he just sits there helpless like a training dummy

after 20 seconds of whaling into him, the damage sponge training dummy is finally dead

during this time, the other training dummy enemies have only slowly lumbered five feet closer

DMC is such a fucking piece of shit series

Anon Babble now has nostalgia for le brown'n'bloom piss filter bald spess mahreen QTE infested casualfag era

grim

But clearly not games with competent writing, narratives, worldbuilding, characters, or decision making

JRPGs are a bottom of the barrel genre for subhuman retards. None of the depth or challenge of a strategy game or CRPG, none of the quest design, writing, agency, or worldbuilding of a WRPG

Imagine typing all of this and not once thinking to yourself, "maybe i shouldn't be saying this".

JRPGs are video games first and foremost. WRPGs are just failed attempts to recreate the tabletop experience in a computer game, which is impossible. Then you have weird hybrids where they try and make WRPGs play like actual video games by shoehorning in TPS or FPS elements, but they're never as fun as actual TPS or FPS games (Mass Effect, Fallout 3/NV, etc.)

DMC1

super retard

what is the game with the white house on bottom left? And the game on bottom middle with rainbow?

Yea sure buddy, you'd say "normalfag weeaboo faggot" to anyone outside here.

How well did games run on PSX/N64/Saturn?

About as well as PS3 games (targeted 30fps but had constant dips).

player agency and freedom le bad

good writing le bad

world-building le bad

competent quest design le bad

interactivity and reactivity le bad

actual challenging combat le bad

deep, mature themes le bad

JRPGs are baby toys for manchildren retards. WRPGs are works of art for adults.

Is there any JRPG with actual good writing or is it all crap like the greatest JRPG ever made, Final Fantasy 7?

WRPGs are just glorified choose-your-own-adventure books with a dicerolling simulator attached.

Xenoblade Chronicles missing

Trash list

PC troon simulators like Homeworld 3 are barely video games.

guys what's the best solution for a PS3 controller

dumbster dive for an OG dualshock 3

buy third party but which one?

use gualshock wired (cable comes off easily)

Buy an official one on ebay, only costs about $100

That's the price you pay for revolutionary graphics

I want to agree with you, but I just cannot believe that the 8th gen or 9th gen could ever be considered better than the 7th gen.

The indie scenes is miles better in 8th/9th gen than 7th gen

You want a 2D platformer with the some combat? You got Shovel Knight
You want a 2D game with the focus on combat and exploration? You got Hollow Knight
You want an RPG with a fun battle system and likeable characters? You got Undertale/Deltarune
You want a horror game that isn't hide and seek, and you actually fight to survive? You got Darkwood
You want a CRPG with heavy focus on the narrative and the roleplay part? You got Disco Elysium
You want a fast paced FPS that's kinda like Quake? You got Ultrakill

The and list goes and on and on.

Isn't everything just getting worse?

You can say for literally anything, and you can still find good stuff

I didn't grow up with movies from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, but they are better than movies now, right?

Maybe because the best movies of that time period is still remembered and persevered?

Good post, but tone down the buzzwords

7th gen became a weird punching bag but I never joined in on it. I was too busy playing games. Even now I hold it in incredibly high esteem. The quantity and quality output was insane. We got 4 Dead Space games in 1 gen. Look how popular GTA V still is. I think Skyrim and Dark Souls was shit but people seem to like em and those are 7th gen games as well.

Xbox 360 has a bunch of weird and wacky JRPGs. Blue Dragon is one of my favourites even though the writing gets to be a little retarded.

Current gen of AI slop and UE slop will never be topped, sorry boomers.

survival-horror genre basically died

extreme sports genre basically died

3D platformer genre basically died

arcade racer genre basically died

futuristic racer genre basically died

turn-based strategy genre basically died

stealth genre basically died

many of the biggest 6th gen games didn't get sequels

I'll never understand how people can not see 7th gen as lacking unless they just weren't playing many video games at all in the gens leading up to it. You could walk into a GameStop in the 6th gen era and walk out with a stack of used games in any genre you liked, whereas in 7th gen, unless you were a fan of brown 'n bloom bald space marine simulators, there was fuckall to play.

None of those genres died at all or close to it, shut the fuck up fag

Stop talking about things you weren't alive for

I was born in 94, you're just a whiny fag who can't look below the surface level

Name 5 survival horror games from the 7th gen that aren't Resident Evil or RE4 clones.

survival-horror genre basically died

Bro, your Condemned: Criminal Origins?

3D platformer genre basically died

Bro, your Mario Galaxy 1/2 and Sly Cooper Thieves in Time?

arcade racer genre basically died

Bro, your NFS Hot Pursuit and Split/Second?

turn-based strategy genre basically died

Bro your Disgaea 4?

stealth genre basically died

Bro, your MGS4?

I said "basically" because there are one or two examples of each of these, but for every one game in this genre in 7th gen, there were at least 3x as many in 6th gen. And usually the 7th gen offerings weren't even as good as the 6th gen ones.

Dead Space 1
Dead Space 2
Dead Rising 1
Dead Rising 2
RE5
RE6
Condemned
Condemns 2
Alan Wake
Deadly Premonition
Siren Blood Curse
Clive Banker's Jericho
Fatal Frame 4
The Evil Within
Alien Isolation

fagcat posting 7th generation normie slop

God, it feels so good that you normie faggots are getting priced out of gaming and we're taking our hobby back from you, the trannies, and the third worlders.

Early 7th gen (2005-2008 especially 2005-most of 2007) the Xbox 360 was niche. The beginning the end started as soon as normie Snoys moved over to Xbox.

Dead Space 1

Dead Space 2

RE4 clones.

Dead Rising 1

Dead Rising 2

Horror-themed action games, not survival horror.

RE5

RE6

Fucking read

Condemned

Condemned 2

I'll grant those

Alan Wake

RE4 clone (and a bad one at that)

Deadly Premonition

Granted

Siren Blood Curse

Congrats, you listed the best survival horror of the gen

Fatal Frame 4

Granted

Evil Within

RE4 clone

Alien Isolation

Great game but not 7th gen (it came out during gen 8)

So that's 3 that aren't RE4 clones or RE games.

Notice a pattern, they all died right after 2008.

any third person game with shooting is an RE clone

Please, for the love of God, kys

posting 2005-2008 games

Now start posting the shit after that year.

crowbcat

this guy is retarded and thinks gta 4 is better than 5 even though 5 is an objective upgrade. you can disregard his opinion

dude le genre is dead!!!

here's a shit ton of games

no actually these don't count even though they're in the genre I said was dead because I have a subcategory I'm listing them in and if they're in that vague nonsense category they don't count so yo-

You lost.

GTA 4 is better than GTA 5, and there are plenty of people who agree with that. GTA 5 is an objective DOWNGRADE in many areas. Crowbcat literally proved it with his video that there are many aspects GTA 5 is lacking compared to GTA 4.

GTA 5 compared to GTA 4 has

worse map

worse setting

worse protagonist(s)

worse characters

worse story

worse gunplay

worse physics

worse gameplay in general

And that's just off the top of my head

entire map is just one giant city with little variety outside of skyscrapers and apartment blocks, so driving gets boring quick

police are completely braindead and worthless

everything is brown, gray, and gritty

MC is a spineless pushover cuck

almost every character is unlikable

extremely, extremely repetitive mission structure

every single mission devolves into drive here, mow down a ton of people

later missions rarely even involve NPCs in the car and at a certain point, every mission is just an all-out firefight; the game is scared to let you have just one mission that doesn't involve mindlessly mowing down mobs of braindead goons

no checkpoints so must restart from beginning if you die or step one toe out of line

gunplay is absolute garbage. With controller, cursor moves very fast vertically/horizontally, but at any angle at all it moves very slow, which leads to very janky aiming. There is a regular zoom-in when free aiming, but lock-on inexplicably zooms the camera in way more, but yet is completely worthless since enemies just stay behind cover. Even when an enemy is right on top of you, half the time, the lock-on will twist you to an enemy fifty feet away instead of the enemy right on top of you. Free aiming and just popping headshots completely trivializes the combat.

movement feels extremely slow and clunky

every car from sports car to an armored truck drives like a damn barge, and yet will flip on a dime to even something like a cyclist

have to restock health and buy armor between every mission by the halfway point because every mission becomes a massive gunfight

frequently enemies you are chasing will have plot armor where you are meant to just go on some scripted bullshit chase before you can actually kill them, and there is no way to tell they have plot armor besides just shooting them a ton and they never die.

literally only defended by shitskin zoombers who played it on their shitbox in 2008

GTA4 is bland, boring, dogshit

That's the best way to put it. 7th gen gaming was on the whole very good but it did cause problems down the line like normalizing DLCs as opposed to expansion packs, making online updates for games a thing and so on. It's more of a case of "having it good but planting the seeds of one's own destruction" rather than it being serviceable but underwhelming or just outright bad like gens 8 and 9 were/are.

It certainly wasn't as good as the 6th or 5th gen of gaming, but anyone that says it's outright terrible is either retarded, lying or a zoomer. It was the last time there was any real graphics upgrade form the previous generation and the amount of cool technology (typically revolving around physics engines or better AI) that would get implemented was staggering. Not to mention the expansion and proliferation of multiplayer gaming over the Internet. Sure, that started with the X-band on the SNES and Genesis, but by this point, it had become a mature technology and frankly it was fun to game with someone on the other side of the country or even the world.

GTAV is far better than GTAIV in nearly every way.

better driving (different cars actually control differently)

way, WAY more mission variety (this is huge since GTA IV is repetitive as FUCK)

way more map variety

significantly more content (guns, cars, missions, etc.)

way more focus on planes, helis, and boats

open ended multi set-up heists. Compare Casino Heists, Apartment Heists, or even the singleplayer Heists in GTAV to something as rudimentary and barebones as Three Leaf Clover

way less scripted bullshit chase sequences (enemies with plot armor)

police actually pose a threat

miles better gunplay and controls

way better UI and layout

better graphics and animations

better art-style (not ugly gray and brown everywhere)

way better performance (doesn't hitch constantly and can run uncapped instead of <60fps)

first-person perspective (unironically pretty big change)

much less annoying health system (don't have to constantly stock up on armor and eat a fucking hotdog between every mission)

NPC AI is not stupid as fuck, doesn't rush in and die, and doesn't block your shots like in GTA IV

it's an objective fact that ballooning costs going from ps2 > ps3 ruined gaming
there are very few great games past that point honestly, jews ruined everything

holy fucking cringe zoomers are mentally ill

His opinion can be disregarded on the fact that he's a normie.

what is the game with the white house on bottom left?

fable I think

And the game on bottom middle with rainbow?

kameo

better than 30

Actually, whats grim is the way your life turned out
