how freaking difficult the controls are.. have they always been like this? i really can't remember..
I finished a couple of Megamans and currently playing Tomb Raider 3, i died thousand times just because of a wrong input or miscalculated a backstep.

Or maybe i'm just getting old... and... that thought scares me..

the controls were always bad, people didn't fully know what they were doing back then.

3D gaming was still in its infancy at that point, so most games of that generation were still figuring out what works. The fact that the original PS1 controller didn't have analog sticks didn't help.

well they have to account for no L2 or R2 buttons because the vita doesn't ahve them.

It uses either the touch screen or the rear touch pad for L2/R2.

I never played Tomb Raider for more than a few minutes back in the day. I tried checking it out last year and the controls were just horrible. I know they're a product of their time, but they make Super Mario 64 feel like silk.

Getting old and rusty. On modern versions I can't even beat MM1. A friend beats them on a regular basis so playing them often has shown #1 I'm old, #2 need to play them more often

I really need to play more of the X games. 1-3 are old favorites and I've played 5 a few times, but only played 4 once and barely started 6.

I do remember beating Frost Walrus without taking a single hit the first time I faced him. I may have just been on a roll gameplay-wise.

I actually miss the old controls a lot. They were innovative.

Now all platformers and shooters control the same. It would be cool if we had to master something brand new again.

But I might be the weird one, I've never complained about bad controls.
