    Looking back, there were definite jumps between generations, but at the time it definitely felt gradual after xbox->360/PS2->PS3. The jump to Xbox/PS2 was incredible at the time

      For reference, my first console was an nes. But I think the PS2 era was the last great era of games.

      Once we had online connectivity, everything kind of got worse. Broken games to be patched later, micro transactions, the loss of local multiplayer.

      I almost only play indie games these days or I emulate titles from the ps2 and earlier. It’s a shame that the magic gaming had before the internet has been lost.
