Let's talk about the video game industry

ITT we discuss general trends in gaming.

I'm sure most of you are aware of my general beef with the current state of things. Back in the 90's, I loved gaming. However, nowadays, I feel jaded. Games have become overly linear, short, and simple, and I dislike how games now cater to the average gamer -- which is to say, not the sort of gamer we had back in the 90's. Casual games have also taken off as a result, with many of the same gripes.

But I'm more interested in what you all think! What do you like about games of old/games of today? Do you like where things are headed? Anything you dislike?
