Growing up in the 90s, and back then being a Street Fighter 2 child, I never got very interested in the 3D transition era that many games went through back in the day, and more specifically, fighting games.

Yesterday, I decided to finally try PSX 3D Fighting Games, so I downloaded a bunch.

Street Fighter EX fucking sucks!

But then I tried Rival Schools and fell in love with it. Now it's among my favorite Fighting games.
Then Dead or Alive, and I loved how goofy combos can be.
Tekken 3 is around the same principle of DoA, and too loved how button mashing leads to combos.
Mortal Kombat 4 (never been a fan of the series because it's stupid and cheap) didn't amused me.
I have yet to try Toshinden, which is among my favorite GameBoy games, and I'm kinda excited to try it out.
Also have yet to try Dynasty Warriors.

I rediscovered early 3D fighting games, and I'm glad I can play them whenever I want nowadays.

Realised I forgot to actually answer this thread. Ironically, given Flame's post, I've recently rediscovered Sinnoh! Platinum still feels like such an amazing experience every time I start a new game, I don't know why but Gen 4 of Pokemon just hits the perfect vibe for me.

Also rediscovered Funeral for a Friend's 2007 album Tales Don't Tell Themselves. Just wonderful from start to finish.

idk. You had nothing witty or smart to say.
Do I ever? :mellow:

I haven't discovered anything new that my brain could comprehend enough to appreciate in years and I don't "rediscover" things, I am just reminded of how I failed to pursue every hobby I ever tried and this topic made me depressed and the onlh thing that makes me feel better is j o k e s

You ass :angry:

Don't get too hard on yourself. Sure, you'd think that at first, but you might've done something throughout your life that you never thought was possible.

Same here, people always shit on Sinnoh for some reason when i personally like the Mons/region much better than many of the later games, maybe they overdid it in a few spots with Rock climbing, but i still find it uniform and compact to traverse through..

Thanks for the suggestion, will check them/album out! 👍
Very original yet again, Veho..

Yeah, very true. The HM overuse really is a shame. Overall, for me it feels like the most magical region, even if that's a lame word to use.

I really need to try Renegade Platinum one of these days :unsure:

Come to think of it, i might prefer it Hoenn too, the too much water thing in the bottom portion of the map is a bit much, although the upper part is def good.. I still love it sp the ORAS versions, and of course HGSS (Johto/Kanto) got to be my fav Pokémon game..

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

    FNF was born from Game Jams
