Too true. As far as difficulty is concerned, MGS4 is a massive downgrade from the original Metal Gear. Games have become more and more accessible over the years, as they should. And if MGS was so "HARDCORE"(god, im beginning to hate the term) ,why even give the players a chance to wuss out and play on easier levels( which 90% of them do)?

care to explain bolded?

 

 Because the industry would shrivel and die if it did not continue to expand. eventually people who enjoy gaming will either grow bored, or die off an reduce the potential pool of consumers. In order to keep the market healthy, and video game production a viable means of earning money you must constantly attract new people and get them to buy your games thus insuring the longevity of the industry. Pretty basic stuff really.
