Subject: Is It Just Me...

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

Or does the Flood really like older games? Apparently CE and Halo 2 were superior to Halo 4, Morrowind was better than Skyrim and so on and so forth. Is it blind nostalgia or is it just me?

Blind nostalgia.

You look around.You fire your weapon before you realize.
Its just me. I fall and you walk up. You cry why.
When i pop up. You look at me in wonder. I say,"ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL."
You bend to my will and go to a cliff, walk off, and fall.
The last thing you hear is me stating as fact,"All will fail the battle of life, you just went early"

It's opinion.

People here are weird. They complain that new games are all about graphics and no story and then complain if a game doesn't update to the best graphics ever each rendition of the game.

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

If you can play an old game and still enjoy it today, it's probably because it's a good game.

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

I'd still buy a game with ODST's graphics.

Those are the perfect ones for the franchise.

Halo 4 wasn't Halo 3.5 like The Flood wanted it so that automatically makes it bad.

One simply cannot explain it, one must experience it.

Disagree.

I much prefer older games.

Per Audacia Ad Astra

I get bored of old games.
Old technology, outdated techniques, sound quality, graphics, processing speed, cinematics.

You can't compare Halo 4 to any Halo game because it's just plain terrible.

Exactly. Some of you guys are trapped up in childhood memories, it's blinding you to the here and now.

Campaign expanded the story much more than Halo 4's did, people played customs all the time with recent played players, maps were much better.

Oh, I'm sorry. Is it because it's got killcams? Is it because we got loadouts? Aw... poor baby.

No, some are bandwagoners, some wear rose tinted glasses, others are just haters.

I've been playing since I was three hence why I think some older games are superior, I've just experienced most than most.

However I just don't like a game because it's older or because nostalgia. In the case of Halo I actually like ODST as much as the first, and Halo 2 is my second least liked Halo game.

Morrowind however is superior to all TES games.

Half of my favorite games come from before 2000, the others come from after that. I appreciate a good game despite its age.
