| Nem said: If you mean, everything isnt grey and brown and super realistic and depressing, then yes. The 90's and 80's were much better. People actually tried to have a good time and didnt worry so much about details. |
One thing that really annoys me about gaming over the last decade is how cynical and downbeat it's become, where everything is trying so hard to be "grown up" that most of the time it just comes off as joyless.
Don't get me wrong, I love games like Bioshock, Gears of War, or Uncharted, (because unlike most of their stablemates, they have heart) but if I had to give one reason why the 90s were the golden age of gaming, it would be that games back then were about fun first and foremost. Splatoon has this same philosophy.
