I'm older than a lot of you guys (turning 30 in a couple of months) so I actually have a bit of a different perspective. I felt this way maybe seven or eight years ago. It felt like a lot of the magic in the gaming industry was gone and my interest in it waned quite a bit. I still played games, of course, but it was mostly tried and true older titles that I knew I could appreciate. (Well, that and Halo.) Both college and work gobbling up the bulk of my free time didn't exactly help.

Fortunately enough for me, much of the magic has returned now that I'm older and out of college. I work a lot, yes, but outside of that I do... nothing. So I play games. Old games, new games, doesn't matter. I play them and love them. I actually credit Steam a lot here with their Steam sales and giving me millions of titles from every direction to try. I'm happier with gaming now than I've been in years.

TLDR: It might get better, because it did for me!
