I assumed that the years had not been kind. Was it just as shit in 1992?

# that's the thing with most old games
they're great in reminiscence (and actually were good in their days), but when you break out the ol' C64 to get "that feeling" again, it's mostly a collection of bad graphics, lagged controls and simple-minded gameplay. Nostalgia's meant to stay in one's head.
(except for some remarkable pearls like e.g. Civilisation)

# I still get my Amiga out for a few games
Syndicate, Cannon Fodder, Maga-Lo-Mania & Hunter.

The rest is best left in my head (like wot you said)
