>I feel like in the end there are far more games that did something really neat but never got recognized, than ones that did, that's just a gut feeling though, I don't really have anything to base that on. It just feel like a shame any game be forgotten and left to languish in obscurity.
>Sorry, I guess I should have thought more about my question when making the thread, again my apologies.
No it's fine I totally have the perspective already that I think you're searching for words to express. It's easy to track success back to its source or sources any idiot can do that. The next step is to really analyze what the game did SO right, that may not have been adequately represented by its imitators. That's a little bit challenging but what's golden is to try to figure out which games DO use those elements and play them, then maybe discover completely lost game-elements and appreciate THEM, maybe even help to bring them back around to modern gaming.
