Are you tired of the older generation of gamers feeling superior?

I've been gaming since i was like 5 (SNES super mario world among other's) i was 5 years old. I look at it this way game's are better nowaday's but in a different way. Most game's back then didn't have flashy graphics so the gameplay was highly emphasized, today it's the complete opposite most "hardcore gamer's are all about flashy graphic's." The games back in the day were a lot harder and you really had to be dedicated to beat those game's so a thing of pride goes into it. Also people who try to go back and play the older games generally give up relatively soon after playing because of progression issues brought on by the difficulty it's not so much that the games get boring it's the fact that were so spoiled with game's nowaday's being able to pick a game up and in 15 minutes your playing like a pro and advancing through the game at a very nice pace. Now don;t get me wrong i love the fact the developer's are making games this way but at the same time older nostalgic player's are almost a little jealous because they remember back in the day dedicating so much time and effort into a game to master it and it seem's to them that nowaday game's almost pat you on the back and congratulate you just for playing it. But i love all games and have played from 16 bit through today and all them are great in their own way, just it's just preference. So if you ever here stuff like this again look at it this way they envy the fact that we get to grow up into an era of great gaming that makes you feel good about playing even if you aren't the master at it and still give's you the opportunity to beat it. P.S. play hard, expert etc. mode if you want to get yourself that proverbial pat on the back old school gamer's.
