How modern gaming has made us into wimpy gamers | GamesRadar

This is an article I just came across today and I have to completely agree with it. Modern gaming has become too easy and way too forgiving. And worst of all we gamers are happy about it.

I remember when Devil May Cry 3 came out and the outcry from its fans that it was too hard. PANSIES! I was really happy with the new direction Capcom was taking with the series but then Capcom slapped me in the face and made the series more noob friendly than ever with Devil May Cry 4. Probably scared the series would suffer the same fate as Ninja Gaiden and become a niche franchise. And the reason Ninja Gaiden suffered this fate is because gamers don't want a challenge anymore.

I also remember people praising the new Prince of Persia game because it didn't punish dying whatsoever. Its like they're happy they don't have to bother getting good at a game anymore because your never punished for being bad. What kind of sick joke is that!

So what does everybody else think. Agree? Disagree?
