Other people liking new things does not diminish ones enjoyment of the old things. And anyone who likes new things is not under any obligation to no longer enjoy any of the older things either.
It's NOT?!Quote:

I want to add something to this.
Video games in color = worst idea ever. It's totally unnecessary and I don't know why they felt they had to take things in that direction. Sucked all the fun out of the experience. Hell, the old Atari 2600 had a switch for black-and-white TVs. They knew what they were about. Why can't it still be that way? All those flashy colors are a waste of pixels on the TV screen.
And once those pixels are used up, you can't get them back.
Widescreen literally does nothing for gaming or for TV vieving in general for that matter.Quote:

Widescreen is excellent for TV, the viewing experience is far more cinematic and engaging when theres a wider display to be worked with, and it brings an end to horrible pan & scan movies which is a giant insult to the directors in the first place.
Please, just seriously stop talking when you don't know what you're on about, you clearly know nothing about cinematography.
No, more cinimatic would be if the hight was huge as well.Quote:

Movies pretty much suck in 4:3, because the closeup shots show nothing but peoples faces and you miss all of the surrounding details; they're literally cut off.Quote:

If this is a joke account, it's pure genius. If not, God help you.
