I find staying one step behind helps a lot from an economical standpoint. I am currently playing N64, PSX, and Dreamcast games and I can get em dirt cheap. $10-$20 a piece. Same thing with PC games. I play all the older ones I can find in the $10-$20 range. Great games like HomeWorld, FIFA 2002, Grim Fandango, Serious Sam 1, Max Payne, Unreal Tournament (not 2003), etc. These games run fine on moderate hardware. I concentrate on gameplay and I don't care if the graphics are the latest and greatest. The increase in eye candy I would get by "staying current" is not worth the extra $30-$40 per game and the extra $$$ for hardware/consoles I'd have to spend. By waiting, I can also Google for any game and get loads of professional and personal reviews. My time is also valuable. I only want to be playing the absolute best games.
