Of all the genres, styles, and concepts that we lost to modern gaming, the one I miss most is that particular type of game that launches on a new system but still carries the DNA of the previous generation. These games embrace the expanded capacity and the bells-and-whistles of the new hardware, pushing past the former limitations and looking better than ever before, yet still retain the distinct visual and design language of the prior era.Of course nowadays that’s a forgotten concept entirely as new consoles have fuck all improvement over the previous ones.
>>727702079Just say you prefer 2D games and spare everyone from all of these pointless words.
I can't think of a single instance where this was a thing other than the 5th console generation.
>>727702079that happened exactly one single time
>>727703135Why is it always the brits?
>>727702590>Just say you prefer 2D gamesThis applies to 3D games as well, retardo.

>>727703326>>727703709How does it apply to 3D console games going from one generation to another? Or even 2D games going from 8-bit to 16-bit? How are their "DNAs" any different? The answer is they aren't. OP actually just meant the jump from 2D to 3D and nothing else, the issue is he couldn't pinpoint in his head that that's what he's really talking about.
