That's an interesting point, but I'm trying to be as objective as I can when I say that games like Fallout 1 were better than Fallout 3 (of course it always come down to what each person likes), but IMHO the Fallout series had been dumbed down.

Another example, the new Terminator Salvation and James Cameron Terminator 2

In those examples, this is not the same people who made each of the game/movie of the series, and at least we know it is approximately the same people who are making SH5

The only thing he has to ask is permission to use the Massive flat screen TV when I’m there.

I’m always amazed at the easy he can do all this at seven. He plays with others in his street after school and they are playing as a team and talking to each other with head sets…Its quick instant these days.

God knows at seven I was probably out on my bike and at best remember waiting for ages for BBC Model B games to load up or worse still spectrums with there tapes loading up and lets be honest they looked crap but we loved them. "Elite" anyone!

To be correct, in 2009, i think the stats had PC games selling the most....

Yes I know what you mean. Rainbow Six is a painful example as to what can happen when a game gets console-ized. But the reverse is also true, some games today are better than their predecessors. I'm thinking Half Life 2, Battle of Britain 2, I'm sure there's many more. Are games really getting worse today... interesting question :hmmm:
