Things in old video games that still bug you?

Whether it be a technical thing, or something being too hard, or something else entirely. Is there something that still frustrates you?


One of my favorite games is Ratchet and Clank (2002) (Though I love most of the Ratchet games, that one is still my favorite.)


Though there are a few technical things that are frustrating that they fixed in later games (Opening weapons menu didn't pause the game, no strafing, ect). There's one dumb thing that will always frustrate me.


In the first part of the game, Ratchet can't breathe underwater (Until he gets an O2 mask later.) If he dies underwater, particularly in "Black water City" where you have to race through a section before it floods, if you do die, you hear, a womans voice, but garbled. But almost like shes trying to tell you to do something. There is a subtitle option, but nothing shows up. I'll always wonder what was being said there.


Anything like that for you guys?

you think that's an OLD video game? I played Dragon's keep on a green screen computer. (Sigh) you know watching Sonic 2 and seeing all the game references I looked around and realized I was the only one in the theater that got them bcause I was the only one who had ever seen a Sega genesis...

They lost the second disc for Carmen SanDiego at my school... and I frequented an arcade where Supermario, the original, was a game

My favorite games are the Diablo series, now the biggest problem is: Blizzard has announced that Diablo 4 will launch on June 6, 2023, with a public beta coming beforehand. I have to wait for 6 months! I don't know what game to play during the waiting time, and how to get more D4 gold then.
