Games are alike everything we use and play in the world, they are given a rating, commented on, and then left for the public to buy and decide, however it has come to my attention that with these ratings and what-nots, can gaming actually get better then what we have already had?


I really am not to sure, when we find a game we love, these games only come once every few years, but I really couldn't say which was my best game comparing Secret Of Mana and Zelda Ocarina of Time, thinking about it I played and received the same levels of enjoyment from both games, hell if I was to go with one it would denfinetely be the Snes Classic because with a multitap and a couple of friends 'nothing' beats it for gameplay and lastibility.


Therefore I really can't see us being that much more amazed in the games we play in the future, sure they can have superb graphics, because they will always get better, but for all other aspects of the game I can't see me enjoying anything in the future more than the old classics first time around.


Games in the future better be worth the wait, its been a long time (CBFD the exception) since I was trying to pick my mouth of the floor when playing a game, nothing in the past twelve months has impressed me that much... and I hope something does in the future, because I have waited long enough!

Thanks

Ok maybe grapgics aren't everything and now you mention it the original is still the best. Actually Seiken Dientensu 3 was better than secret of mana so maybe that is nt true but most of the time it is. Did you say I need help... as I am trying to get some but no one will accept me into their mental institutes. I guess I will have to stay here for a while.

Graphics aren't everything you know. Who's to say a 128 bit version would be any better?

You do know, don't you, that 128 bit just means it can show more colours than a 64 bit. That's all it means.

Secret of Mana was the most incredible game.

Just as Bonus sad though, nothing really beats the first time, and when you have found that certain special game you wouldn't really think anything can beat it!

Of course gaming can get better. ONly if they make some of the old snes classics into gamecube games though. Can you imagine 128 bit Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana. I can and I am drooling at the prospect of it.
