Quoted from markmon:It should. You're rating things like toys, lighting, sound quality on a scale of 1 to 10. Certainly as technology improves, something that was a 10 in one area might be an 8 now. For example, in 1992, the sound quality on TZ might have been a 10. Now it would have to be well below as other games have shown what can be done with uncompressed audio in stereo, not crackling, etc.
Yes! Well said.
Quoted from Dooskie:That's just the way I do it. Take The Black Knight, for example. I think I gave it a very high rating for sound. When the machine was built, it was innovative, and there wasn't anything (or much) like it. To give it a low rating for sound wouldn't be right, because in that era, it was the best there was.
That would be fine for a ratings list that only included era like pins...but this rating list is not geared that way.
The best game from 1975 does equal the best game from today....i certainly wouldnt make that trade
