Not Marathon Infinity... (Gaming)

the way Halo felt, looked, and played is really a product of its time. Halo played and looked great, but there are games now that play and look better.

Play and look better at what? I've never played a game that's anywhere near as good at being Halo as Halo is. And while Halo does still exist and can be played, the possibilities in that style of game are hardly exhausted.

When you forge ahead you can create an experience for the ages. When you move back into nostalgia, you create an experience for the moment.

If you think it so easy for new games to strictly better old masterpieces, how is the "experience for the ages" any less ephemeral than that nostalgic experience for the moment?
