During PS1 and PS2 days, yes I was blown away by some of the games that really stood out graphically but I didn't neccessarily care. But now I do pay closer attention to graphics. What I mean is that graphics is great, I'll love the game more. By no means am I suggesting that if a game has pretty average graphics, then I won't play it or it's crap but rather feel a bit dissappointed that it doesn't have great visuals. I never had this kind of judgement during the PS1/PS2/N64/GC era. If a game back then was fun and good but lacked some graphics, then that's that and I still love the game no matter what. But this gen if the game is great and fun but have average graphics, then I feel a bit disappointed... 2) More selective of the games I buy because know I use the internet to help me judge whether a game is good or not. To tell you the truth, I never used the internet for anything other than study purposes during school. It wasn't until 2005 when I started to discover a site like IGN and use them as my main guide. Then of course as the years go by, I discover far more sites and hence I began to read more and more about games and know which games were coming out when. 3) Trophies has become the primary reason for single player replayability. The only exceptions to this are MGS4, Uncharted 2, Dragon Age Origins, Heavy Rain and God of War III, where I wanted to experience the epicness of those SP Campaigns and to see go the alternate routes and make the opposite decisions in DAO and HR, etc. But other than those games, if I was to replay a campaign, it would be because of trophies. |
