The thing is the question is kind of retorical.Because the "old" games laid the foundation for the new games.So the *now* games borrowed the elements that made old games go gold.So it's absolutely normal that 80% of the now games seem dull to us.And that's why they're so exciting to kids just starting to play games.
Now if i am to compare the old games to the new games, it's only reasonable to say that the new games are better in gameplay(they borrowed the concepts that made old games good, and improved on those).There is one thing that new games will NEVER be able to capture.And that is the graphics.I have yet to see nicer graphics then the ones featured in games like QfG1(VGA), or the Kyrandia series.Like wendy said, that is just magic, the geniune feeling of a DOS game.Of course 3D is still(!) in it's youth, and i think that in a few years it will start to please even the most demanding gamer.
