What about extending this idea about retro games reviews?
Maybe you can do it in two directions, the one will be for very retro-games, and the other for games from 2002+.
Looking at World of Warcraft for example, it's technically a 4 years old game, yet so popular. I've been playing it for three years now, and I'm happy to see that there are lots of articles about it here. As a hardcore player I also have some objections, but that's another story. And yes, you are right that this game still gets expansions to keep it popular, so it's maybe not covered with dust like the games I'd like the writers to review.
