    But I agree with you. There aren't a lot of games that are rated E that are ridiculously hard. But blame the developers. They want the parents' money.

        But you didn't say that. You said kid gamers weren't hardcore. I was trying to say they are. It just depends on the consoles they have.

          No shit, although it blows my mind just how much unplayable shit was out there back in the day.

          Kids today don't know what it was like. We didn't have the information we have now. We had Nintendo Power, not the most objective source. And speaking of which, who in the fuck won those contests in the middle of the magazine? I don't think anyone did.

            But what definitions are you using to say kid gamers are hardcore? And what age range? Teens don't count.

              I won a shirt once from Nintendo Power. It had Howard and Nester on it.

                Kids = under 12. And hardcore by kicking ass, and lots of it.

                  When was the last time you met a hardcore kid under 12 that wasn't playing MATURE games or games other than Pokemon? I'm just saying as I have 4 siblings all under 12 and while they play games, it's not a big deal to them like it was to us when we were their ages.

                    I guess. But I can't relate too much in regards to the hardcore games. Once I tried them and found out I couldn't beat them, I gave up and moved on to RPGs.

                    Until I got older and gravitated towards shooters.

But Normal was too easy. There needs to be a fine line. But kids are fucking pussies today. That has yet to be disproved.
                      Heh, if you just start out on veteran your first time through, you won't know how easy it could be. I expect everyone here to play Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran the first playthrough.

                      Entertaining podcast. Kids today are spoiled. Battletoads and Ninja Turtles were hard as shit. If the game sucks, I do regret starting on the hardest mode. I just want to get it over with or I quit.

                        Oh and I would say (in regards to hard games) Professor Layton. That shit is geared toward kids. And it's fucking difficult.

                          Also, the way platformers have evolved. 3D makes everything easier.

                            Why do games have to be bone-crushingly difficult to be considered good? I remember all the old time games (and wager I was playing them before many of you) and those games were not designed to be won by the majority. They were made to punish and humiliate (and generally speaking the ONLY way they were going to be won was if the button-mashing gods were with you).
                            We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.

                              And dang it Howard, we didn't have your skills back in the day. What with your 2-liter of Shasta and Rush Mix-tape.

                                They don't need to be bone-crushingly difficult. I just don't want to spend 60 bucks on a game and beat it in 2 days. *Cough* Batman, COD4*cough* I'd just like some varied difficulties. Normal = too easy Hard =BMZPAIN HARD
