That's not exactly a worthless approach to take though when reviewing retrospectively.
It's one thing to know that a game was historically and culturally significant at launch, but it's also useful to know if it's still as fun to play today as current alternatives.
Fortunately I got the original on Steam before they pulled it. You can apply the DEP mod the restore the original soundtrack, and PS2 visual touches. I think it still plays pretty well. The recent ...

We got Pixel Remaster, which is pretty good - that’s enough.
I’d be in favour of some new version of Chrono Trigger since the current steam version, decent as it is, still has some foibles that they don’t seem willing to patch

There are enough of those around, so it’s for you to establish which of them aligns with your tastes.
Professional reviews haven’t been valuable in well over a decade

Similar boat here. I'll keep my childhood collection though which is pretty compact and makes for a nice display. When it comes to playing them, I'll make do with either emulation or the increasing number of reverse engineered PC ports

PC plugged into TV + Steam Big Picture mode + Bluetooth controller = console experience

Just as I think of The Simpsons as a 90's TV show even though it's technically still going, I'll probably always think of COD as a 2003-2010 franchise.

ND has allegedly been trying to address crunch culture, which may go some way to explaining the slower pace, and that would be a good thing.
I'm personally no longer in a rush for any game anymore as there are already more good games in existence than I'll ever have time for, plus I'm less interested in 'movie games' than I used to be.

Glad you are having fun rather than making it your life's mission to remind everyone that it actually still isn't what was 'promised' before launch

The Trials remake felt like it was made specifically for me but i was glad to see it was relatively well received, even if a lot of them were coomers

yeah i haven't been really into FF since 10, and didn't play 11, 12, 14, or 16. Had a surprisingly decent time with XV as I liked the theme of journeying with friends, but it was a bit of a mess overall. 7 remake has been pretty fun though.

Wasn't for me - the trailers looked cool and some of the ingredients were there, but too much of the traditional FF feel was missing.

Shadow of the Erdtree, Visions of Mana, Rebirth, MGS3, maybe Dragon's Dogma

I loved TSOT though it's a decade old so I wouldn't call it 'recent'

If this gets applied to the Steam/console version then I’ll consider getting it

I’m huffing a lot of hopium for this game

This is old paradigm thinking - generational leaps aren't ever going to be like they used to be, and waiting for features that we can already see implemented on PC is not worth it just to be more "excited" later.
We're starting to see 30fps games creeping back in so if a hardware refresh allows us to brute force our way out of that, then good.
Alternatively, more power for ray tracing would be good too.

That will be the key indicator or whether the Pro will be justifiable for me. If it makes GTA6 materially better to play then I'll be up for it

This was the highlight of TGA for me
