The “Golden Age” of Gaming?
While researching how exactly the Super Nintendo console generates sounds (essentially 8 instrument midi + reverb of some kind, I think), I happened upon the Wikipedia entry which stated (at the time I found it at least), that the SNES represented the “Golden Age” of video games. So, evidently, it’s not just me who thinks that. And Wikipedia never lies, right?
No, it never lies. I do have to agree though - even after all the advances in video game technology, these classics still appeal and are playable again and again. A lot of new video games, after being beaten, just aren’t interesting enough to revisit.
