Ive commonly heard people make the claim that older games are just better all-around than newer games.
So, why do so many people think so?
This isnt specific to games, either.
via Shortlist
This happens because people remember all of their favorite songs from a long time agothe best of the best.
Its a completely unfair comparison, but one that is difficult not to make.
The same process happens with video games.
The 90-something percent of all other games have been long forgotten.
However, on the flip side, the experimentation aspect of many triple-A games has been lost.
But we all know that isnt the whole story.
Perhaps the problem is that too many people are looking in the wrong places.
Is the problem that no quality games are being made?
Or is the problem that you dont want to have to look for them?
