This is true in the same way it's true for a lot of old games, especially those early 3D games. There were a lot of revolutionary games comming out around then that will be fondly remembered (OoT, MGS, FF7, Half-Life). Take any of the bracketed games and imagine playing it for the first time ever after having experienced all the innovations since they came out. They wouldn't rate as high as they did back then. The reason why we remember them so fondly is they all brought something new and fresh to the table. Whilst the gameplay and story might still hold up, what really sticks in your mind is that initial experience and original WOW factor.
