Did the internet partially kill gaming?

TBH I'd rather save the X amount of money it cost to make those remakes and just play the old game again, I get what you're saying but that's just my view (sort of off topic: How do you feel about Galaxy 2). Though I can't agree that EVERY other company does big explosions nor is Nintendo excluded from it (they just make their big explosions more "cartoony").

I actually liked it, the concept of adding yoshi just won it over for me. I enjoyed those games because it took what I grew up with, modernized it, and made it more colorful.

Assassins creed was also original and had a well thought plot, prince of persia as well.
