[Classic] Old games are great, don't forget

many gamers forget about them(oldschool games),some times even saying that new games surpass by all means old ones.

seriously guys many should think about the game play and "cool ideas" part for a change.

don't you agree?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Finally, some good old school gamers who understand my point.
For all who want to enjoy a good rpg, i suggest playing CHRONO TRIGGER and CHRONO CROSS.
These two great games will surely be appreciated by all rpg fans especially new ones.

Don't you think so?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Absolutely right.
But sadly not too many games are like that (awesome graphics+cool gameplay) especially RPGs.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

2D Combat games used to be rather exciting, Indeed. However, some 2D games witnessed a mediocre transition to 3D, why not to mention KoF Series (say Maximum Impact). This may explain the rollback to older graphics (2D), perhaps to enhance the artistic touch 2D games are known for. This is exactly the case for KoF XI, you can really distinguish that game's fun, from its 3D predecessors, which look so damn crappy.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

"Open-endedness" and "total freedom" without a good plot guidence will lead to the creation of a crappy game.
That's why game developers and designers are careful in their choices, they tend to restict freedom and improve gameplay otherwise.

Btw, SOTN is an amazing game.
Have a deeper look inside you'll probably find a challenge, at least.

I was speaking idiomatically.
