Compare games like Ocarina, Halo, and Final Fantasy III against their more modern counterparts and they still emerge as the best games, any gap in technology notwithstanding. |
I believe they show they can still stand on their own feet as good games but certainly are no longer "the best" games. They show their age in gameplay, graphics, features, etc
Games advance just like anything else does and since those games were released they show their age in more than one way. As I said, still good, just no longer the best. All three scores would be hurt "if" they released now as new ip's.
The thing is they set the bar and paved the way for what games are now but you certainly dont believe games havent advanced since then do you?
