Today's Critical Thought is on the rising trend of "Modern Retro" games. Titles that were developed explicitly to look and feel like a game from the 8 or 16 bit era, but developed today. I talked about some of the big examples and the debate about how much they should adhere to classic games. I also poised a little quiz at the end as a hint for the next Critical Thought.
