They're no where near the quality of the series at its peak, but they had their moments and are far better than most of Zombie Simpsons.

>Tracy Ullman show Simpson shorts good

They were pretty fucking awful. This was of course before Matt Groening actually hired a group of talented writers to write episodes of his cartoon family.

Then maybe he should use a better comparison picture to differentiate Season 2-8 Simpsons and Post-Season 8 Simpsons.

The thing that killed the Simpsons was how it went from lampooning and making fun of popular culture of the late 80s/early 90s, to becoming the basis and inspiration for tons of pop culture by the late 90s/early 00s. The show got big enough that it essentially replaced the things it was making fun of, and led to a new era of pop culture that it could no longer criticize in the same way because it had a hand in birthing it.

>Call of Duty.

Call of Duty was always trash outside of the original which was an ok game but nothing ground breaking in terms of gameplay. CoD2 was just CoD4 without modern weaponry and less multiplayer features but was pretty much the same shit. I remember beating veteran on CoD2 when I got a 360 at launch in 2005. Like every future CoD, it came down to trial and error and rushing to the next hallways as quickly as possible to cut off enemy respawns. And while I did have a PC that could play it at the time (9800XT), I bought it for the 360 for the max visuals and my 720p tv at the time.

According to contrarian, nostalgiafag /v/, what series HASN'T degraded?

I honestly can't name one that hasn't.
>>
>>387484860
Persona still has about the same level of quality

I'm more interested in what series /v/ referred to as having been degraded, a statement that angered you enough to make this post.

Just asking. Logically speaking, there must have been some specific series that /v/ said degraded which bothered you enough to make this post, because otherwise there wouldn't be much reason for you to hold the opinions that the entirety of /v/ is contrarian and nostalgiafags.

Lady Gaga visits Springfield and can't actually solve Lisa's problem of the week.
It's a shit episode but it isn't any more shit than any other episode in the past 15 years so I don't know why people focus on it

Well, since /v/ isn't one person like you seem to think it is, it's hard to say. But it seems to me that many are still quite fond of Kirby.

Ratchet and Clank.... Every Game just seemed to get progressively worse from the very first to tools of destruction... that was the last one I played.

Though I have only heard good things from the latest reboot, I've dreaded disappointment too much to bother with it.
Anyone who played it think it's a good'n?

Have you ever been ticked off by the minor change of a character as a series/video game goes on?

For me, it's when a someone's face becomes less expressive or loses eyebrows. Yes, eyebrows

It captured the charm of the original, when I played it I couldn't put it down it was like I was 10 and playing it for the first time all over again

cutting corners for budget can be a pretty interesting thing to look into, not to mention a way to make more money to acquire more budget bucks to spend on hookers and blow

When you just resort to regurgitating references to the first few games because you know your new characters aren't interesting enough. When a new cntagonist appears it turns out they were under the control of an old one the entire time.
