There are plenty of different opinions. Just think in emulators for consoles as IMBNES or SNES-STATION. Those where meant for people that felt nostalgia for old games, and wanted to play them like they were playing in the same original console. The idea of using the actual technologies to improve games of that kind (in this case, the amount of games in each cd or dvd) is present, giving more chances of amusement (instead of buying remakes of old games like NES games for upcoming revolution)

Theyre both fine. Next gen and old favorites, as said before

Does it really matter which ones are better? As long as you get an enjoyable playing experience out of the game, then who cares. I'll play the original Mario Brothers as much as I'll play Metroid Prime. Sure, they may look, and feel TOTALLY different, but theyre still good in their own way.

Everything has its own value, old or new

I have a *preference* for old school games since I was brought up around them and all, but both can be quite enjoyable. If a game nails down the whole "gameplay" aspect, then it's going to be good whether it has 2D or 3D graphics. It's when you get into the whole "more style than substance" trap that you see problems with some of today's games.

Yeah, I like both of them. I was into games when I was younger but as time went on I got more into them and started liking just video games in general more. I didn't play RPGs back then and I still need to play the past FF's so I can't compare them to the newer ones.
