It's because you are old! :D

I placed bid on a CDTV the other day. Almost got it for 67€ when some idiot told the seller it was a collector's item. Subsequently, the ad was removed, and I got an SMS stating that he wanted five times as much...

Nothing left, but to face the fact that we're grumpy old nerds with far too fond memories of a long-since dead computer platform.

Oh, but there are recent games with replay value. I'm still playing the Baldur's gate games (although they probably count as retro nowadays -.-), and I'm quire sure I will be playing out Dragon age and the Mass effect games in the future (yes, I am a Bioware fanboy), not to mention Fallout 3 and a few other modern classics.

Plants vs. Zombies was mentioned in another thread. You can bet your rear region on that that will still be played regularily in ten years. :)
