Where would you put this division between 'new' and old? Do you find
PS3/XBox360/2010 PC games still eminently playable? Do you draw the
line at anything older than 10th generation? Do you turn your nose up
at anything not released this year? Where does 'old' begin for you?

I know that "old" is finnicky but my definition is either the game isn't
selling anymore or like around 2014?

The 'not being sold anymore' is a pretty awesome delineation, I think.
I don't care if the game came out two weeks ago; if the publisher
chooses not to support it anymore, it's going directly into the 'old'
pile. ;-)

YES, I am so upset how fast games get delisted/shut down these days..

On a related note, 3DS/WiiU servers are being shut down today.
