Those of us who talk about how revolutionary a game is are simply trying to consider a game in its time when it came out. Obviously games are going to get better over time as more improvements are made to graphics, physics engines, camera angles, etc... However, we're giving bonus points if a game was the first of its kind to include something, like Goldeneye being the first to include that type of multiplayer for a FPS. If the game is flat out the best 100 games, then it should be mostly recent games because improvements are constantly being made, but some of us are trying to recognize which games we loved playing the most, and those are older games for some of us.

Have to consider appeal too. Not everyone can be interested in the countless FPS games out there today, RPG's, these incredibly detailed strategy games, etc. A game like the original Mario Bros is practically a universe language.
