People forget how far. The only true reason people have these days for saying the past gens are truly better is nostalgia for them, and personal experiences. Strictly speaking, if you gave someone a Genesis and an Xbox 360 who had never played either, they'd obviously say that the 360 blows the Genesis games out of the water. Or a PS1 to PS3, etc. or even a PS2 to Xbox 360 or something from just last gen.
It isn't bad to let our personal experiences make us believe past gens of games are better, but reality will almost always dictate that the current generations will always be the best. IMO, Doom is still the greatest game I've ever played.
GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
