My question is, are old games equally enjoyable now compared to when they were originally released x years ago?
I'm sure the answers will be different based on what kind of gaming you still do. For instance if you don't play current generation games, you'll probably answer yes, but for those of us that have bought every new form of hardware that has come out, our enthusiasm for classic Sega consoles and what not is based on fond memories of past games. I've noticed that some of these old games, particularly the ones I missed back in the day aren't satisfying, yet the ones that I remember loving, I still enjoy. Then there is the third group of games that include games I missed when they came out, but even today I fully enjoy like Panzer Dragoon Saga, Phantasy Star IV etc... So I am on the fence on this issue, but please like two or three people come here and discuss, it's deader than... dead here lately.
