Nowadays only arcade/action games might be better compared to older games

Discuss!


(not necessarily a representative comparison, but the point is comparing games in the same category->old game vs new one)
Arcade: Teenage mutant ninja turtles vs. Bayonetta (hmm tough one)
3d/FPS: Half-life vs. Crysis (hmm...HL probably, due to great plot and story)
RTS: total annihilation vs. AOE 3 (TA wins)
Simulation: collin mcrae rally 1 vs. Dirt (CMR has better driving mechanics, Dirt is arcadeish)
Adventure: Fallout 1/2 vs F3 (bwaahahah...)
Speciality: UFO: EU vs. there's nothing close to it today


Ok it's a bad comparison but games once were truly games, nowadays they are like Hollywood movies...all the same with a few good exceptions.
The amount of creativity that was once present, is not here.


Edited for more clarity. The title won't change, not sure exactly why

This thread title makes no ****ing sense. Better than what??!?

**** sake, I'm bored of reading through your threads several times trying to work out what you're talking about.

Is this thread another: "Are old games better than new ones"?
 
Do you even know what genre Bayonetta is?

Why would you use CRYSIS as a benchmark for the FPS(or rather, '3d') category?

And Age of Empires 3 for the RTS category? That was a really shitty example.

>implying RPG = Adventure

This thread has already begun terrible and you should feel terrible.

God damn it you guys, what the hell did you think i mean? comparing new games with kitchen ovens??? Of course it's compared to old games, geez.

Recently i've been playing games on WinUAE nad the game supercars 2 gave me more entertainment than any modern racing game i've played.

I concur. I have no ****ing idea what the OP is talking about.
For one, how do any of those games that you have listed qualify as "Arcade" games?

As they say, i am perplexed.
 
GUYS, I THINK CRYSIS IS A GREAT GAME!
