More Play network (Compile/Mao) Many people like those old games, such as there are many people are keen to play the previous RPG, many people still in the world of CS1.5, many people still play has been a decade of history of Tetris and so on.  These are PC games, and a lot of people are playing with their ps2,ps,dc,gba, even the red and white machine! Of course, these old games now have a lot to play directly on the PC simulator, or a lot of masterpieces have been introduced to the new host on the download version.  But for the "love" players, this kind of play is a bit uncomfortable, it is really not catch up in the real host, experience that authentic feeling. But for those "outdated" host, over time, the machine aging, the most important is related to the scarcity of maintenance services, 20 years later, we can play to the current popular games? As far as I know, I like, for example, "Dungeon Keeper", currently on the Xp,vista,windows7 can not run, either you install a Windows98, or installed a virtual machine, otherwise you can not nostalgia. Host aspect, the contemporary ps3,xbox360, the most important one characteristic is can the online game, alone Lele is inferior to the public lele. In the future, even with advanced technology, so that the "old" game can be reproduced, then network services will still be there? People often say that without the network Xbox360 at most is a Xbox180, then the game fun will be greatly reduced. There is also this generation of host trophy/achievement system, without network services, these people to show off the capital can only be in their own host on the addiction.  If no one else sees your accomplishments and trophies, how much motivation do you have to fight for them?  If others can't see, will you fight for trophies? Does not support the user to build a local area network game, and completely rely on the official set up the network server to achieve multiplayer games, may be this generation of game host the largest short board. A game of network services, generally can only last two years or less time, such as the previous generation of "Halo 2", has already shut down the server. And recently, the United States to take the "Demon Soul" network services will be closed in March 2011, the news has been released, the state of the United States clothing can be used aihongbianye to describe. This 09-year Black Horse game, with a unique worldview, close to the brutal game settings, and a unique multiplayer way to win the 09-year game award. And once its server shutdown, means that players can only be lonely in the dark game world hard to fight, the game will inevitably drop. But it seems to be a foregone turn. It can be imagined that no network services, such as "Halo" series, "Kill Zone" series, "Battlefield" series, "Modern Warfare" series and so on, how many people these games will continue to play. They can only look for "new games", and friends to enter the new game world to continue to fight together, and then wait to shut the suit toPro, into the next loop. Of course, for game manufacturers, permanent, or long-term open a game of the network services, will inevitably bring more hardware and labor costs, the longer the network service duration, means that the manufacturer to put more costs in this game. For a long sale of the game is still possible, but the game's life cycle is only a few years, over the past few years, manufacturers to continue to network services, is undoubtedly a very bad move, the most sensible choice is to shut down the network services, but not too much attention to the voice of the players.  Actually take a closer look at the instructions for the game with the network function, or the user agreement will find, they have no exception to write, "The game's network services continue at least to XXXX year XX month," The implication, "the game's network services in XXXX XX month will be terminated, to networking, please early." PS3 on the mag, a pure online mode game. If the online service is interrupted, then you can lock the CD into the closet, because there is no online mode, the game is not play at all.  Perhaps mag belongs to a more extreme example, it and the Monster Hunter, the Final Fantasy XIV different, but these games online mode, is to charge, as if the PC network game, is to continue to charge. PS3 Online shot MAG because of the development of network games, this generation of game patches and DLC is particularly much, manufacturers through patches to fix the game bug, adjust the balance of the game, optimize the interactive experience of the game, through DLC to add more content. But if after 1-2 generations of hosts, after 20, a player got a Super Big game CD, unfortunately, all the patches and DLC has not been able to, then he can only endure the bug in the game, only to complain about the game design flaws and imbalances,  Can only play the original content on the CD, for the game updates and DLC, he can not get, he enjoyed the game, may be just a "cut version." The bigger feature of this generation of consoles is that there are numerous download games, that is, not through the CD media, directly paid from the network services to obtain. Like PSN, like XBLA. Then you download the PSN or XBLA game, in PS4 and Xbox720 out of time, still can play?  We really hope that the vendors will be able to think about this issue and provide a perfect solution for porting and migrating.  In a word, with the progress of technology, I hope that in the future we will be able to experience the perfect many classic games. Hope we can play in the future, not just Super Mario
