If you think darksiders was bad you should play Zelda Ocarina of Time. It came out before YouTube and was basically all puzzles, water temple was a PITA. One of the all-time great Zelda Games. It's interesting how games have evolved in the past 10 years or so, back in the day nearly any RPG was full of puzzles, now they are more combat oriented with engaging stories. Wonder where we'll be in another 10 years.

Hopefully in the same direction with the combat and engaging stories. Games like Skyrim (if it wasn't so bugged) and Mass Effect 3 are the types of games that need to continue. Assassin's Creed is a good series too but I haven't been able to get through Revelations, that crowbar handle grab thing is so stupid.

I agree though the future of gaming is looking good. Graphics are getting VERY good these days. What bothers me though really is the games with 5-20 hours of gameplay, too short

Bethesda is incapable of making a game without nearly game breaking bugs, I'm convinced of that after all the elder scrolls and fallout games. It's like they think games are made more epic by having to reload earlier saves and experience the same content twice or three times in an hour. I personally wasn't wowed by Skyrim all that much, I've sunk way more time into ME3 even with its god awful ending and its fair share of bugs.

Also i think the online component has alot to do with the short game play of some games. who cares about a really good SP experience when you're just going to go online and shoot your friends anyway.
