Lets just put it this way, they don't make games like they use to.

A number of games will be to a certain extent but not all, saying that i've been gaming since I was 13 (30 now) and a number of games seem too easy because they all follow a similar formula that gamers have had years to perfect. How do you know were just not getting smarter in our old age

This. BEST games were between 1995 to mid 2000....

Soon after that they went downhill, there have been VERY few decent releases.

At least it didn't take them the better part of a decade to admit it. Oh wait, my mistake.
