>Just mod consoles and you can play the whole library for free!
I guess. But is that the only way to enjoy games made prior to a certain year? I can go into a comic or book shop and discover old things for cheap. I can do this with movies, TV shows, manga, board games. I'm free to blindly discover things I think might be interesting in a hobby shop and go through the much more fun process of finding out, "Oh, this is great! I never knew about it before!". I get to crack open the comics, skim them a bit, check out the covers, actually feel like I'm fucking exploring my options.
But for older games, I'm forced into this sterile, "Load everything on a disc and boot up a menu" bullshit. That ain't the way to explore entertainment. How would you prefer to look at paintings? Walking around hallways in a museum with little plaques giving you further information about it, a fucking ZIP file full of JPEGs and a .txt document that you have to look through to find out information about each image?
I know that's just the way it is unless this shit crashes, but you guys gotta see how soulless this is, right?
