A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

No. You know why. You know what you did.
i've got an old version of FCEUX that I boot up all the time to run The Guardian Legend. One day, I'll do a full run in one sitting. Then, maybe I'll speedrun. I can dream.
GO TEAM TOME!
Although, have to say its graphics are the way it is because it is a rogue like
only when its good
The bad graphics don’t bother me, but the control schemes on some of those old games are atrocious and really hard to control in 2025. Tried playing syphon filter and I was smashing into every wall
The weird thing is that they're usually only bad in comparison to all the newer games you've played after that.
...Reminds me of Max Payne.
Wasn't born in the PS1 era, sorry...
Lately I've been replaying the campaign in Railroad Tycoon 2 (available for a just few bucks on GOG) and I've had just as much enjoyment as playing a full priced modern title. Granted it's got pretty timeless 2d(ish) graphics and a studio recorded bluegrass soundtrack at a time when most games just opted for midi soundtracks. It's even got a complete stock market simulation where every action you take affects your company's stock value, and you as an individual can manipulate the market to benefit your company and vice versa. I've had particular enjoyment by personally selling a bunch of stocks to artificially depress the value of another company right before attempting a merger. That and trying to survive margin calls without being forced to sell my 90% stake in every single railroad company that inevitably tanks the value of every single railroad in the game
Pretty dang good for a nearly 30 year old game!
City of Heroes.
Such a great example of what an MMO should be. Old, and not without it's flaws, but it did so many things right that even contemporary attempts at the genre miss entirely.
I bought Trackmania United Forever last weekend and it's kinda interesting because the stadium environment still looks great, most of the rest look ok and some others look pretty bad.
Also me playing a brand new mons hunter game on low graph because they shipped a broken game.
