That's funny. I think you completely misunderstand me all together. I don't care about GTA4, and I don't care about OoT. What I think is funny, is a game comes out, gets higher scores then a 10 year old game,. and people say that the ten year old game is a better game. I totally disagree with that philosophy. It just happens to be that the game today is GTA4, and the game from ten years ago was OoT. If the argument was GTA1 got a perfect score 10 years ago, and the latest Zelda got a 10 and people were coming out of the woodwork to compare it to a 10 year old game, I would be having this same discussion about Zelda. The gaming industry advances. We expect more every year out of a game, and every year we get more. The games get longer, the stories get better, the technology improves, and the budgets grow. Because there is a lot of money to be made, a lot of bad games are made, but the best games of today are just better then the best games of yesterday. I played the shit out of Archon in 1983, and here 25 years later I can still remember playing it. But that does not mean it holds a candle to OoT, or GTA4, or any good game released in the last 10 years. That's just my opinion, your free to have your own. But for me, todays cars are better then yesterdays cars. Todays great movies are better then yesterdays great movies. Today's computers are better then yesterdays computers, and todays games are better then yesterdays games. Tomorrows advancements will be better then todays. |
Here is a weirder concept for you. I think Secret of Evermore is better than GTA4. The game is significantly older than 10 years, and wasn't even critically or comercially succesful. The reason you got flamed for 3 pages is because you are telling people their opinions are wrong. Opinions on this is better than that are rarely wrong. Just because something is more technically advanced does not make it more fun. Is Superman 64 more fun than chess? Matter of opinion I imagine.
