new generation video games give a better experience, opposed to older games

On this part I will actually hop around and provide some response to some of the contentions my adversary has made.I would like to start here. Contention 1"Therefore age cannot truly be a factor of whether or not newer, games give a better experience or older ones."Age is entirely a factor in this with the resolution you are claiming. This debate is not whether or not new generation games provide a better experience to a younger generation, but whether or they provide a better experience overall. Every type of gamer must be taken into consideration because of this, to simply limit it to the younger crowd would not meet your resolution. You are claiming they provide a better "experience", without specifying to what demographic this is referring to, it is taken as a whole. As I stated prior to this, if you would have said that "new games give a better experience to a new generation", that could a very viable statement. We however must taken into consideration the age of all gamers from youth to elderly. My adversary is also saying that they could rework some games like mario and donkey kong and they would be considered old generation games. This is at fault with itself. If they rework the entire game, at that point it is a new generation game, because it is taking the new technology and applying it to an old game. What we mean by older games, is games that were literally released years ago and have not been reworked. Example - super mario (original) - this is an old gen gameExample - super mario 64 (still old gen by my adversaries definition, but an entirely new generation in itself)Now if we take someone whom is 30 + , they may like the first mario better, and say these type of games offer a better experince. Someone around my age which is 25 may say that super mario 64, would give the best experience. Someone who is 18 may remember super mario sunshine and say this is a better experience. All of these are gamers, and all their experiences must be taken into account since you are claiming that specifically games that have been released in the past 2 or 3 years would provide a better experience than older ones. When someone is born is directly relevant to the type of experience they have while playing gamesNow take this into consideration. I am 25 and love new gen games, but I still think the older ones give me a better experience all around because of the elements that they have to offer. It invokes memories of some of the best games ever released. I can enjoy new ones and still play them, but I still prefer the older generation more than the new. It reminds me of a time where I enjoyed playing games the most. This is often the case with people 18+, if you ask them they would say they love new generation, but if you ask their favorite games you will often get answers like zelda or mario. Therefore we can conclude that my adversary is wrong when says age is not a factor.Contention 2"I would like to say that I did not rambleon about the new graphics, I clearly stated that “Development in technologyenable developers to create more realistic looking and soundingcharacters"This is a truth, but again this is mainly the truth with new gen gamers. If a new gamer is born into having these new features, he will be inclined to like it more than playing an n64 or super Nintendo. I have already shown this is not the case with people who grew up gaming. Even with the features it offers, gamers can simply prefer older games because of the experiences that they had playing them. Graphics will always get better along with sound and quality, this is something that will never change. As technology progresses so do these features, but that in itself does not offer a "better" experience to all types of gamers. Contention 3PlotThis is entirely irrelevant in and of itself. I made a point of giving a plot to show that older games still had good plots as well as the new ones. How much someone likes a story is directly related to their personal preference. Some people hate rpgs, so they would despise a old timey plot. Some people hate shooters, so they would not give call of duties story a chance. Saying that the plot in itself falls in favor of only new generation games is an error in logic. Anyone depending on what they like can pick up and old game and enjoy the plot and get a good experience. This is all dependent on what they do or not do enjoy. Saying that new games give the best plots, is entirely subjective and merely an assumption rather than a fact. It is directly correlated with my adversaries preference in games. Again ask someone whom loves zelda what is the best plot, 90 percent of the time you will get the ocarina of time, which is an old gen game. Contention 4Music"Perhaps you have me beat on the music area; the sounds areiconic and original as a music lover I cannot contest the quality, perhaps I shouldnot bow to my opponent but I cannot deny the truth that the music is still asgood as it is and was"This is almost ironic he can claim this with the music itself but not the experience that someone has playing the game. The same can be said for the plot, the experiences the game gives, and the characters. Actually if we took this and reworded, it would show a strong point to support my case. Lets change some of the words around." The gameplay is iconic and legendary, and I as a gamer cannot contest the experince that others have. I however cannot deny the fact that newer games are still coming up and providing amazing stories and plots just as much as the old ones"This is a statement I would agree to, one that says older generation games provide a better experience to some people while newer generation games provide a better experience to others. The story and the plots have always been amazing, and will continue to be amazing. The one Error my adversary is making, is that he is claiming the new gen overshadows the old gen, and I have shown that this is just wrong and very subjective dependent on whom is playing the game. Contention 5"AS we can see the rules have changed and game makers anddevelopers are free to release to multiple platforms and are set at a marketbased value of consumption and price. This gives them the ability to free roamand explore the art of video gaming that’s why new generation games offer abetter experience. "This does not in one bit show that new games offer a better experience to everyone. Look at it like this, 10 years ago the marketing focus was aimed at that generation. So games like mario and zelda hit it big, and were sold in bulkSo now that generation whom was around 15-18, is now 25-28 and do not play games as much. They retain the experience they had playing those games and enjoyed playing them and to this day will probably admit those were the best experiences they ever had. Now since those people do not play games as often, there is a new generation who does not like or got bored with the older games. So to be able to stay in business companies like bioware and square enix must come up with new platforms and stories that are relevant to this generation. This ties in with new graphics and other factors. They are focusing on this generation. Since the majority of gamers are younger, it is only basic marketing to focus on this new generation with what they sell. It will make them the most money. If these companies focused on just strictly older gamers and did not focus on where a majority of the people who play games are at, they will go bankrupt. This is not advocating a better experience to all types of gamers though. It shows that younger kids enjoy the new generation of games more than the old. This does not account for everyone personal experiences that they had with the older games though.In ClosingI think I have made a much stronger case as to why newer games to not offer a better experience to everyone, but mainly offer a better experience to a new upcoming generation of gamers.
