There are old games that aren't really made in any form nowadays though. Like say...X-Com or Syndicate.

ALso, we only remember the GOOD games of yesteryear.

There was a lot of crap out there then, as there are a lot of crap out now too

We don't have to be stuck in the past to accept that the conditions back then encouraged more creative thinking and experimentation in game design. It was a pioneering industry. That didn't stop me from preordering Battlefield 3 last month, though. Good games will be good games!

There's definitely a lot of creative thinking and experimentation on game design in recent years too, simply because of the ability to develop cheap games with better technology ala indie games distributed over PC, PSN, XBL
