Funny thing is games have not.

Don't get me wrong they look good and play great.


My gripe is they are getting too easy.

Reason been if your'e not into mp there are too many savepoints too make them challeging.

I still pine after the days when you were down to your last bar of health.

Frantically looking everywhere for a health pack.


Also if you turned off your console half way through a mission it was back to start next time.


A lot of that seems to be gone this gen.

 

I'm glad that's gone this generation.  I absolutely hate leaving on my console, a complete waste of energy.  And I hate having to replay sections of a game I've already played through.  When I had summer vacations where I could spend hours straight playing a game, it was fine.  But I think most adults will agree that having frequent checkpoints or the ability to save anywhere is a godsend.

Well fair enough I just feel it takes some of the challenge out of it.
