I didn't play the full generation. I moved to PC in 2009 so I dodged the worst part of the generation. I also wouldn't say it was the best generation. The reason I would say it was the last good one is the lack of a required install. You could buy a game, then start playing it right away. If I have to sit through an install, I might as well just play on PC.
