Are the retired GMAT paper tests any good? or are the questions too out of date?
I havent really heard much about them.
Thanks.

The tests are actually pretty useful for practice (just don't use the scores as guides). However, you will come across questions out of the OG. If you have gone through all the other materials, definitely go get them. You can find them alll over the net so they are pretty easy to get.

I've said it dozens of times, but it seems nobody wants to pay attention. After the OG and GMATprep, the retired paper tests are the best available GMAT resource. Clearly better than any 3rd party resource. All of the alternative sources I have examined vary from the real thing in question structure and logic. The paper tests are real questions; most importantly they conform to real GMAT logic and question structure. The only thing is that you must be disciplined when you use them, because timing variations can impact your results.
I would absolutely recommend using the retired paper tests before turning to Princeton review, Manhattan or anything like that. In fact, I have actually made this recommendation many times in this space. I'd recommend using the SC1000 and CR1000 only after exhausting paper tests and/or after you are 100% sure about the underlying rules and concepts. The SC1000 and CR1000 are great for volume repetition (and of course they are free), but I would highly advise against using them until you are consistently scoring in the high 40s. They are not useful for learning concepts.
