You mean when old NES games where way to difficult to the point of unplayable? Why would anybody miss that. I hated that. Anyone remember Gauntlet or ghouls and ghost? That was not fun. But all 3 of those games are different.

Dark Souls- meant to be difficult and "challenging"

Skyrim- Epic adventure and a bit of grinding like most RPG's

Mass Effect 3- Closer to a epic story(if you can stomach the endings. Even the newest one. That is nothing more then meant to get people to wait for whatever MMO or new series they come out with on the next gen systems).

I like challenging games. Now you just guide a cartoon character through an easy maze.

old games were difficult but that wat was fun about them, they gave you a challenge, most games now all you have to do is watch the screen and cut scene's not that hard anymore. and ghost and gouls wasn't impossible great game.

and this question is silly, you can't put these up against each other there completely different to one another and can't be judged against each other.

mass effect for it's story, skyrim for the sheer size and scale and rpg elements, and dark souls for just being solid

All these games are completely different. For starters, ME isn't even an RPG. Dark Souls is challenging and rewarding. Skyrim is massive and breathtaking to behold, but lackluster in actual gameplay. Personally Dark Souls is in a completely different league than the other 2 games, but it's really pointless to compare them.

Dark Souls: strong in combat and gameplay

Skyrim: Strong in player choice and open world

Mass Effect 3: a third person sci-fi shooter... seems out of place to me

Dark Souls is amazing. Haven't played ME3 but imagine its pretty good, ME2 was. Skyrim I simply will not purchase, got a pretty good idea what im missing, and dont give a chit.

I completely agree with this, ME3 was overhyped, overrated and generally pretty lame IMO.

people will kill me for saying this but i found skyrim to be extremly boring. im sorry every1 :(

as for mass effect 3 the only mass effect i enjoyed was mass effect 2 and i found the rest to be not that great.

dark souls on the other hand is my fav rpg. the game is simply amazing and the sound track is top notch.

best rpg this gen imp is dark souls then demon soul.

I haven't played dark souls, but heard good reviews about it and skyrim is also very good, if you have the patience to do everything in it.
