I’ll agree that if I tried playing Sly Cooper for the first time as a fully grown adult I probably wouldn’t enjoy it nearly as much. But kids definitely know a good game from a bad one, that’s why there’s games targeted to kids/ teens that sell well and others that don’t. Just because they didn’t grab the attention of 30 year old you doesn’t mean they weren’t great games, you just weren’t the target audience. That’s like someone who was 30 when SpongeBob came out saying that it was never that good.
Out of curiosity, what games from that platform/ time do you consider good? Everyone’s coming at you for your (objectively wrong /s) opinions on these classics, surely there were some that you enjoyed.
For the Dreamcast/PS2/Xbox/Gamecube generation the biggest hit for me was Phantasy Star Online… jesus, I dunno how many hours I plugged into that.
Halo of course. I was skeptical until I played a demo, instantly bought in. Project Gotham racing as well.
Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube pulled me in to such a degree I played it through 3 times to see all the endings.
I can’t really think of a PS2 title that grabbed my attention like those did.
That’s funny, I had this exact experience much more recently when Breath of the Wild was relatively new. I heard so many people raving about how good it was but I was never a huge Zelda guy. Went to Best Buy to window shop, they had a switch on display with BotW queued up. I don’t think I even got in to combat before I thought, “ok, this is something special, I need to give this time”. Still play it here and there when I’m bored of other games.
