But that's not what I'm saying. There have been plenty of amazing moments in games this generation. By virtue of where hardware has gone in the last two generations obviously games have been more iterative than they were previously, but that hasn't had and an impact on amazing quality titles. What I'm citing specifically is the last two years of this generation, which have felt like an attempt by everyone to do what they can to get through this last gasp. Two years of milking franchises for as much as possible because starting work on something new for the current hardware simply doesn't make sense.
