Are Games Getting Easier?

An anonymous reader writes "I can't help feeling that this generation of games for both consoles and PCs are getting increasingly dumbed down and easier to complete. There's no challenge in today's games, most of which can be completed on the day of purchase. Triple A titles such as Halo, Modern Warfare 2 are the worst of the lot. The whole reason for this article is Medal of Honor, this can be completed within hours of purchase. Where's the fun in that?"

Nope. It is not the games. It is you.

This is what happens when you don't have a life and play games all day. You reach a point where you complete all the games on the day of purchase and you are left despondently looking at the basement floor and begging mom for more money to buy more games.

The cure is simple, get a life.

I'm really sorry to say this. Most games are competitive. If you're not having fun, you probably suck.

another take of this is

But do they have battletoads?

No seriously, ever play that game? It's rage inducing. Did i think it was a good game? Fuck no, it was a piece of shit.

To summarize, difficulty != Fun

Wanna do something hard? Do something outside of video games.
