What makes a game so good?

Well, since you can get them illegally, some of them are really bad.

Ok you cant base it on one thing because a game need everything to make it good

Like what good is a plot if the graphics are gonna be atari style

I know that, but considering the huge development on gaming turned from fun into entertainment right now. Graphics and gameplay are getting better and better too, but no for story. Yes, you might say that I am comparing those latest games.

No other developer would try on old-skool graphics as you mentioned right now. If there is one, please say a title. If no, ........ well, that's ur opinion since you like gameplay a lot.

And yes, like those Atari games especially Pitfall.

cute characters

originality

cool things like winning points for smashing your car up


edit: not taking half an hour to set the game up is always a winner
not a big fan of difficult games either, i want to be able to play it

does it include them releasing games like the original NES games on the GBA and e-card reader?

A game with ALOT of secrets, good game play, and like Hitmonlee said "cool things", usually with these elements I can play a game several times, which is good. BTW, if you care about graphics you're not old school, but that's not necessarly a bad thing

No, that's a conversion/re-released games.

Personally, I prefer the gameplay compared to anything else. I dislike games which are way too easy to play.
