General / Re: Preffering Old Games Vs Current Generation Games

In general I am still trying to keep up with all the PS4 backlog of games I have. After Kindgom Hearts III I've actually had the time to go back and play some of them - The next new game I am getting will be Sonic Team Racing.. but even that will be withheld for Fridays so I can play co-op. Also, I am trying out a classic for the first time in a while in Final Fantasy V - GBA, while I own the GBA version I am still using a PC Emulator, it just looks so good upscaled to 1080P & I can use my PS4 controller win-win!
I must admit, I do struggle to go back and play older games, sadly, it does come down to trophies, games without the are slightly less appealing and that does come into effect when choosing my next game - It just feels less authentic in some way, which I know is shallow to note. I do want to go back and play some PS1 classics like Grandia, Alundra, Legend of Dragoon & so on but newer releases tend to take priority and with boat-load for a backlog I just rarely get around to it.
Sometimes I can be a hardware barrier, all my PS2 games are still boxed up as I don't have a good method to play them - I bought the Pound PS2 HDMI cable and was very disappointed with it! I have loads of PS2 titles I'd love to try out like Blood Will Tell, but sadly just don't have the means to do so. But with my recent Emulator set up, which looks so much better than playing PS1 games on the PS3, I am hopeful to get around to more classics this year, I'm 12+ hours in Final Fantasy V so I'm doing just fine
