Necro's are da best. But Shadow of Colossus will be technologically outdated when we have friggin 3D motion detecting **** that literally blows up your mind and puts it together again. Think about how much games have changed in 10 years. Not to mention, it would be targeting an audience that was around 10 years ago. A lot of things can also change socially in 10 years.
I'm not saying that old games are not fantastic or cannot compare. I'm simply saying that there's really no point to compare them to new games in the first place because the environments in which they were released could have changed dramatically...

Not really Duff :P The thread isn't that old and it pretty much made me scratch my teeth by the blackboard. But someone already said that it isn't worth to discuss the matter with people who are able to define a medium only through technical means. That's shallow and leads to a point where tendency of thinking forces recipient to limit his expectations of the medium and rejects its true form. It's easier and safer, a matter of taste you might say but that's definitely less satisfying and poor experience.

No, it's not shallow at all, it's reality. I am not defining a medium through technical means, I'm defining by the current modern day standards. The year it came out is irrelevant, that's like saying that the best PC from 1992 is as good as the best PC from 2012. It's not, things evolve including the game industry. Someone who rates a game according to the current market is not in the wrong, they're being realistic. It doesn't make much sense to rate an old game, but if you are rating it then you need to rate it according to today's standards. A rating is how good the game is, so what good is a 20 year old rating? The market changed, old ratings are not truthful any more. Just because a game was good back then it doesn't mean the game is good now, just like the 1992 computer.

Why do you make a review on a 20 years old game anyways? >_>
Exactly.
