I don't play the same games now I did when I was a kid. A few times I've tried (usually in emulators), but they're never as good as I remember them. Instead I play a lot of retro games; the kind with pixel art graphics, chip-tunes soundtracks, and usually some old-school game mechanics. They remind me of the old classics I played as a kid, but without the limitations and annoyances caused by the limited technology of those days. And they usually lack the annoyances and excesses of modern games.
