Zeus 01/09/22 5:41:49 PM #21:	They're still mostly awful today, but I think a lot of it comes down to them using engines or underlying software so the bad is less bad. Although most licensed shit now is still bad, you're unlikely to ever see another ET or something that's bad to the point of being completely unplayable. However, I'm not sure it's ever been 90%. There were a lot of passable licensed games, as well as some great ones. Capcom did some amazing things with Marvel fighting games starting in the 90s and, while flawed, the old Marvel beat-em-ups are still fun. And sure, Marvel and DC aren't the only licensed shit, but they're some of the biggest. The SW licensed shit was often awesome as well, particularly the flight sims. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:961611069] in Why were 9...

Donomark 01/09/22 5:46:21 PM #22:	I think that part of it also has to do with the fact that video game technology and genres were more limited back then, and therefore couldn't quite capture the license in the best way. For example, there wasn't really a great Spider-Man game until 2000 (that was the first time you could really swing from building to building).
