Yeah, I totally wish that I could go back in time to a lot of fuck all. Oh boy, a 3D Zelda game, a 3D Mario game and a 3D Final Fantasy game.. Oh wait, they sucked. Deus Ex didn't happen until 2000, Planescape: Torment was trash that had to be patched a dozen times to make it not CTD every 5 minutes, and Diablo 2 also didn't happen until 2000.
Sorry, what were the "apex games?" Don't act like you loved RE2, all you ever do is shit on tank controls, Final Fantasy Tactics was pretty decent .. but guess what? I CAN STILL PLAY IT. Yeah, why would we ever want to be in 2016 where we can still play games that came out in 1998, when we could instead wish away all the good games that came out after 1998 and just play the games from 1998? Fuck off, you god damn hipsters.

its not like those games are exclusives to consoles with proprietary hardware that has to be meticulously reverse engineered to have a chance at playing them.
Console exclusives are the cancer ruining vidya

VIDEO GAMES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SHIT

They way you experience games depends on your previous experiences. If this wasn't true you'd only need a game you enjoyed once to satisfy you for the rest of your existence. Why do we save the best for last? Our condition demands an ever increasing amount of pleasure.
There is no hope for vidya anymore. Today everyone knows the industry is shit and it only surprises us by failing even harder.

I agree with you on a general level but some of your opinions are questionable and require your urgent reprogramming into forcing you to have better opinions.

Oh dear.
Pretty much. There's great games either side, of course, but 1995-2005 has all the major genres established but not stagnant and, as you mention, plenty of funding and creativity to go around.
