Anyone who follows the discord knows that I still play EWR all the time. EWR came out in like 2003 and hasn’t been updated because the creator moved on to a paying gig (TEW) and the code is too difficult for anyone to crack.
But here 15 years later not only are scorps and I still tearing it up on this text-base but there’s still a thriving community that keeps the rosters and feds up-to-date.
How does this game hold up so well despite it’s simplicity?
Anyway, I was wondering what other games you know that are getting older but still hold up. Let’s say at least over 10 years. And maybe we can figure out the secret to the perfect game

I play OpenTTD. It's a free, open source version of Transport Tycoon Deluxe, which was released in 1995. And it's great (once you climb the learning cliff that is train signals). It's great.

I replay all 3 original Donkey Kong Country games on my GBA *the SNES belongs to the family so it is home in CT* like twice a year. They hold up so well. Also Super Mario World on SNES Classic... I love that game.
AND CHRONO FUCKING TRIGGER!!!!
I cursed ... I'll go archive myself Mongo ...

Chrono Fucking Trigger is and always will be amazing.
Pokemon Red and Blue are still kool with a capital K as well. Smackdown Vs. Raw 2007 and 2008 still hold up good. I still like Mario Kart Double Dash as well.

Not quite 10 years old (a few months shy) but the original InFamous game, was a fucking masterpiece. Batman: Arkham Asylum, despite being the worst Arkham game in the books, also set the tone for amazing games.
But onto actually old games, Galaga and Space Invaders are my favorites, by far.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was and is still a top-notch game. Y'all ran around with your Intervention snipers and quickscoping 12-year-olds, then being challenged to a 1 v 1 on Rust and that's where World War One and Two could have been settled.

Anything with Mario Kart in the name, my favourites being Double Dash on the GC and the OG version on the SNES. That being said, I'm a big fan of every Mario Game, my calf tattoo proves that.

I'll have to take a pic at some point. Photographing your own calf isn't easy! You show me your Mario, I'll show you my Mr. Burns... Also Mario Kart Double Dash was insanely good, I still don't know why they dropped that style or haven't made a second one. A game I have been playing for years now, and will continue to play it for years is Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn. It's kinda nerdy I guess but it is amazing to play, was ahead of it time for what it offered and the replay-ability factor is through the roof. Also for those who have ever listened to one single sentence I've ever said, it probably included Fallout 4. That game is better than fresh tits.

Yeah I burned major hours playing double dash. I ended up magazine timed on baby park lol. 10th on the top 10 but it counts! Haha. I'd love to have played fallout 4 more, but it's the kind of game you can't play for half an hour. Between work, this and family life, it just isn't happening lol.
