You can have a differing opinion from everyone else but keep it civil, that bit about brain damage is bordering on flaming.
OT: It is a combination of things from nostalgia to some older games truly being great. When things were new and there was alot of new ground left to discover and new things left to be done there were alot of games that came out and changed everything. This is harder to do today so many games made these days, while perhaps being of the same quality of those games that set standards back in the day, they will not be remembered as fondly because they weren't the first.
Games on average are better in every subjective measurement than they were back in the day. There is no general decline of games that many seem to think, they just aren't as exciting as they were back then because they aren't new anymore.
