This is a fun topic.. I can say im starting to become an old games, been playing over 30 years now and played on about every system. Some points about new games holding your hand more and being easier is partly true.. But for sure there enough new games that will give you a hard time too.
What i personally feel is that old games, lets say SNES and older, are just very unforgiving. Even the hardest game today is easier because of the endless save points and continues.. Even a game like Dark Souls, which gives a good challenge feels less hard than most old games. In the old days, so to speak, it was just a few lives and if you we're lucky you would get a continue.. Game over really meant game over and start all the way from zero again.
I myself enjoyed every generation and already love my PS4. I'm even happy that games became a bit more forgiving and let you save anytime and have checkpoints.. I just don't got the freaking time anymore to spend weeks just to master a game.
And saying young gamers are not as good as old gamers is BS.. Sure they probably suck at SNES/NES/PS1 games, but they will be just as good or even better at the games that we play today. When playing The last of Us online i sometimes feel like a freaking noob lol, while i had no problems to finish the game at Hard difficulty.
If you ask me young gamers will always be better at new games than old gamers.. Already simply because of the fact they usually have way more time to get good at it compared to us older dudes with our jobs and family commitments.
People complaining about the difficulty of todays games should just not play at all, or just hook up your NES to your HDTV!.. And i always thought games were for fun and entertainment, with a slight challenge.. If i want something really hard to do i will go try to understand women or quatum physics :D
