<p>Why should they review older games? To the consumer, they are <em>also</em> on the market. The PlayStation 4 is not just competing with the Xbox One and Wii U, it is also competing against the Atari 2600. I can choose to play an Atari 2600 game over a PlayStation 4 game. With the new games, it is hard to see the crap because everything is all shiny. The classic games of the past do hold up and are worth playing.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m the wrong person to come to for game reviews since I don&#8217;t have the money to buy every game, lack the time to play all the games, and I really don&#8217;t care about most games. For those who are looking for an independent view on video games, look no further than the <a href="http://videogamecritic.com/">Video Game Critic</a>. His reviews are short, to the point, and span nearly every console made. While he plays modern games, he cycles through all the old consoles with new reviews.</p>
<p>He liked the new Zelda 3DS game. Since he is someone I trust, I assume the game is good.</p>
