Do you feel gaming is just as good now as it's ever been?

I've spent a good amount of time on here on SW, and a consistent point that seems to be brought up from time to time, is that gaming in general has gone downhill in the recent generations. There are claims that games do not receive the same care and polish that older generations have done.However, I also see from the samepeople claim that more recent games are some of their favorites ever made. Let's take Mass Effect 2 for example: If gaming as a whole is worst than previous gens, how is it that so many people feel Mass Effect 2 is one of the best shooter/RPG's ever created? Let's also not forget the string of amazing action titles that have been released, and some very innovative story driven games. Half-Life 2 ring a bell? If the last couple generations are video games downfall, why is it that Half-Life 2 is considered one of the best story narrative games made? In general, I want to hear what people's opinions on the subject matter is. Why is gaming in recent gens great in your opinion. Why do you hate it? All I ask is that we keep the topic civilized, and not try to bash a specific console/game to promote flamming.

I feel games are fine right now, i loved last gen, it brought some of my all time favorites like ToS, Paper Mario, Metroid Prime. MGS3, etc, but this one has been quite good too with games like Brawl, SMG, Bayonetta, MGS4, etc, so far i don't really see a problem with quality in general, maybe the only thing that worries me is that more and more games are getting high developing cost, and that may be a problem in the future, but i believe that as long is there quality, people won't have anything to complain and the industry will keep going.
