Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

People have no right to complain about wanting more Team Fortress 2 updates and should be grateful that it's even still being supported when very few developers would keep up with a 15+ year old game.

League of legends is 14 years old but still has a huge following and gets regular updates and content.

Is the age of a game really an issue in this live service era we're in?

World of Warcraft is going to be 20 years old in a few months.
