It reminds me of a remark made by Kasparov, I can't remember exactly which game
it was, it was discovered that a novelty from Garry was not exactly new but had
gone unnoticed (chess databases were not so common then) and Kasparov's reaction
was: "My game was played by some patzer!"

I happens in many branches of life I think, many classical music composers for
instance wrote very good pieces but are now completely forgotten.

One recent computer-computer game that I liked:

[Event "Test Betazoid T8"]
[Site "Groningen"]
[Date "2005.04.15"]
[Round "6.2"]
[White "Pro Deo 1.1 - Betazoid T8"]
[Black "Chess Tiger 14.0"]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "B84"]
[TimeControl "40/9000:20/4500, Celeron 500 MHz"]

1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6
6.Be2 e6 7.O-O Be7 8.f4 O-O 9.Be3 Qc7 10.g4 b5
11.g5 Nfd7 12.f5 Nc5 13.f6 Bd8 14.Ndxb5 {!} axb5 {Chess Tiger thinks White is
now -0.28} 15.Nxb5 Qc6
16.fxg7 Kxg7 17.Nxd6 Ncd7 18.Bb5 Qc7 19.Nxf7 Be7 20.Bd4+ e5
 1-0
