Games you liked as a kid that hasn't aged well

Evil Zone is pretty goddamn great, apparently they asked Paul Eiding to ham it up as much as possible and it's hilarious

Also the power ranger looking dude is voiced by the Duke Nukem guy

I really liked Jumping Flash when I was young. That was a weird game

Spyro The Dragon, the earlier games.

Either it's because I've aged and I'm now a grumpy old fart, but re-playing the games a week ago, they didn't seem to hold up all the well.

The camera angle can be kinda hard to manipulate, the levels are repetitive, the soundtrack is not the best though there is a few catchy tunes out there, and the villains and other heroes are a bit bland.

They are not awful or bad games, not at all. Though they have lost their spark and what made them special so many years ago.

Or either that or you have to stay as 5- 12 year old for the rest of your life to understand/ treasure them the most, which is most likely the case.

I still love Hunter and Bianca though and their odd but cute relationship they have in the 3rd game.

Hunter- " you look cute when you're mad "

awww

Secret of Mana.

The music and aesthetic is still great, but the combat is really slow and the hit-boxes are clunky. I tried to play this again with my spouse a couple months ago and we gave up.

Basically every console game I played as a kid. I can play old PC games all day but anything that isn't FFVII, Tactics or A Link To The Past I'll get super bored of very quickly.
