      They don't know this themselves, but they hate old games because it invalidates the consumerist urge to always obtain the very newest realease. It averts the eyes away from the trough; the cardinal sin under consumerism.

        Okay not to disrupt the circlejerk but I have never heard of gamers having an issue with older games.

        Are you sure you're not just making up a guy to get mad at?

          I hear dismissiveness toward old games, which sometimes manifests as "lol why u care about that old shit," but never outright anger. It's just a dumb thing like in every medium.

        :hahaha: Mfw I buy new, hyped up games around 5-6 years after they're out on a discount of about 70-80%

        I love old games, Doom 2 > new Doom (I will fight anyone on this!), and the old MSX keyboard + tape deck games were rockin'!
