No preference--which should have been an option. There are good, mediocre and awful games at all times. I'll not give up my copies of Morrowind or Patrician III, but Magic Candle I and Hidden Agenda did some wonderful things, too.

i shouldnt have voted for the old days, like many people have said this mellenium is only 5 years in also there have been some amazing games out in this 5 year period
halo, american mgess alice, battle realms, deus ex, eve online, emporer battle for dune, (to name but a few)
yes things are more commercial these days but as the pie lover pointed out simulation games benifet massivly from the new mathmatical capabilities of the new hardware, so do rts, (when i first saw emporer i was like *whoa*)
if you love adventure games buy them from the few people who make them and try to convince your freinds to as well, stay away from warez as it damages the industry (and potentiolly your computer)
"oh but i cant pay 35$ for a game i hear you cry, well the anser to that is to wait for it to go down in price, even when im on a good paycheck you will see me in the budget rerelease section, i think the only game i have paid over 10$ for in the last 10 years is battle realms (cuz it looked like a fresh rts, an the shop had nothing else i wanted)
cd,s went down in price because of the consumers refusing to buy them and cd shops only shifting units on sales, (and cd writers suddnly got cheap + mp3s ..) im hoping the games industry will follow suit, but they complain about the develpoment cost, soo how much does it cost to make a movie? whens the last time u paid 35$ for a dvd (not counting boxed sets) if you want more adventure games tell the developers, get an online movement going (the peacekeeper wars wouldent have happened if it wasnt for the fans) or play the independent games and tell the developers when you love what they have done, if they charge u nothing an email at least heaping praise is a given really.
rant over i should really finish dfend tutorial, (just gotta get some ceaser 2 in first to relax my mind)

hehey to be honest I voed for new games. We have had in the last five years, as omg stated, System Shock 2 (I think), Metal Fatigue, Deus Ex, the Max Payne games, Operation Flashpoint, the Trackmania games (very good) and a fair few others. Baldurs Gate 2 was nice.

without a doubt, oldergames are better! some say its there more simplified design, some the original and intuitive storyline, others just like returning to our roots
