Our experiences seem to be completely opposite in this regard. I always run into overpowered cards and combos in Legacy, and I'm not seeing what you're saying about the new sets. Even the Urza's Block cards that are legal are still noticably overpowered.
I started at Time Spiral, then left during Alara. Then returned during Return to Ravnica. I'm still not seeing any problems in a casual setting. The only disconnect is when I go against competitive players, but that's a given.
And the aformentioned Urza's block makes it clear. Some of the stuff in Urza's Block gives me nightmares. If you really say they make new cards stronger, look at the MANY horribly busted cards that were printed during Urza's Block.
Of those, the only card banned is Tinker. The rest are still legal.
If you really think that the stuff they print now is nearly as powerful as stuff like this, I really don't know what to tell you other than really look at the stuff they print now in comparison to what they used to make before Modern.
