Seriously, what the fuck happened to games like ultima 7, contra 3, jet set radio, baldurs gate, fallout, planescape, gunstar heroes, wonder boy, secret of mana.
Did people shit themselves over final fantasy 7 and just all decide to say "LOL IT'S EASIER TO MAKE GAMES FOR NIGGERS AND THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR SO LET'S ALL MAKE FINAL FANTASY SEVENS OR WOW'S"

Games aren't going downhill. It's all about making something orginal. In the 80's/90's nothing was newly made yet so it was easily to decide what games to make and etc..But now it's much more harder making games on systems like xbox360/ and ps3 because THEY ARE THE SAME AS XBOX 1 AND PS2 EXCEPT SOME GRAPHIC AND FRAMERATE IMPROVEMENTS!!.
Also, Another reason is that classic game developers either 1) left their companies or retired 2) Cannot develope high-tech games for such high-spec systems, 3) they hired a bunch of untalented game developers or 4)games are much more demanding now.People except the game to fucking be out of this world, when really it takes hard hard work to even make that. it's like drawing a mona lisa painting for each game you make.
Another easy reason is look at your age. Of course you can be 30 years old still playing games, but it starts to get boring if your playing some sonic/mario/megaman game because you already know too much and whats going to happen next so basically nothing is new to you..so we decide to give it a mediocre rating because of that. You must think of all the new people and generation who are just experiencing this classics. People say it might be time to put sonic to sleep, or it's time to end the megaman series, when really it's time to for YOU to look at the outside world and notice your a little bit too old to be playing them and SAYING THEY SUCK.
PS
sorry i really just dont like ign. they give all my games i grew up with on new-gen consoles friggin bad ratings, when really i enjoyed it alot. I might not go to ign anymore.
