Grargar: I'd rather not go into theories, but look at the results directly. The results are fewer pre-2K games, but overall the same amount of releases as 2013 (and maybe a bit more).
paladin181: why are we only counting pre-2K games? I think you have to account for any game older than say... 5 years old. Because let's face it, the cut-off for technology is pretty short.
And on that note. GOLD BOX GAMES, PLX.
Forgotten Realms Archive Silver Edition, specifically. I still have my book and Code wheels. I want those on my GoG shelf!!
i consider 10 years a good cut off point
so games from 2004 ( and soon 2005 ) can be labeld old
sims 2 kotor 2 kotor 1 are all 10 years or older
i dont consider ass creed to be old quite yet but its getting there
though it probably also has to do with the graphics
sims 2 morrowind kotor 2 they feel old they do not look cutting edge any more they look good but still quite artificial
a product of their time
ass creed on the other hand ..well the games bleed over in to each other 3 looks slightly better then 1 btu the differences are huge the graphical performance is plateauing there arent any huge leaps any more
there isnt a wow factot from going from thes nes to the ps1 to the n64 to the dreamcast to the ps2 anymore
( yes i am a console gamer and ? ;p )
these days there si some extra blood a higher resolution and some better graphical fidelity
horjay !
...im gonna play sims 2 or bloodlines
