I agree completely. When we were young, games were more challenging. So what does that mean? Are kids not smart enough these days? I honestly don't get it. A big part of the fun in playing those games was figuring out a way to overcome the obstacles that the game threw at us. I'm not saying that every game has to be Demon/Dark Souls difficult, but not something that'll take a few hours to complete... and maybe that's it.

If you finish games quickly you'll need a new game to play. And companies that put out yearly installments of their games reap the benefits! You finished one game and now you have to buy the new one if you want more.
