and is trying to comb through to cream of the crop software in an attempt to catch up, and finding them lacking.
That's exactly what I did. And what is the failure there again? I have played through the supposedly "best" and some of the most successful PS2 games. And mostly they simply were not very good. Now it is possible that I missed some hidden gems but seriously if even the most acclaimed titles are not really fun, I don't care.
To be earnest I have the impression that PC gamer prejudices were simply true: Before this gen console gaming simply was inferior compared to PC gaming. Now PC developers are on consoles and things are looking up.
I think the key difference are Japanese developers. 2 of the three games you bring on are japanese RPGs. If you are into this genre its no wonder that you liked the last generation better. This genre is slowly dying. Perhaps the last gen was the generation of Japanese developers. You seem to like their games, I have not found one that I enjoyed.
But I will agree that taste is very subjective, anytime you argue about something that involves taste you have no right or wrong.
