Or does our nostalgia for the good ol' days make us feel like all the games suck nowadays?
Personally, I think it's a little bit of both.

Also, with the automatic buy-in of franchises across entertainment venues, game makers have an option to be on the lazy side and still sell the brand. I think, however, the gaming industry as a whole has been learning and getting better each year (my gaming memory begins at the transition from NES to SNES). Not just with graphics (obvs) but gameplay depth and ESPECIALLY exploring video games as a venue for storytelling (Max Payne 3, Far Cry 3, Halo ODST)
