With games now jumping from one generation of consoles to the next, when is the best time to play something? Is there ever a best time?

    they get improved versions so commonly now.

    They get “improved” versions that they have to buy a second time on new hardware.

    I’m not going to be able to play Crysis remaster on a Nvidia GeForce 8800GT like the original, no?

    I’ve no idea, but its very plausible if you bought higher end hardware at the time.

      There is backwards compatibility on all consoles at the moment, and it’s likely to become a standard moving on. I can play Crysis from X360 or remaster from XOne on my Series X.

      My point with that 8800GT is that you need new hardware for the remaster anyway so it’s pretty much like consoles.
