Have you played any challenging video games lately? According to Gears of War franchise creator, Cliff Bleszinski, in its quest to lure in more video game players, the industry is giving you games that are more linear and easy to play.
In his words:
"It feels like in this current console generation that we've taken a lot of steps to grow the audience and what I think's happened is that the games have become more linear and easier, so it feels like a lot of quick-time-events."
Quick-time-events are video game play that shows instructions, including buttons that must be pushed as soon as the prompt appears on the screen.
Bleszinski's next video game will be Gears of War Judgment which will be a shooter and offer class-based levels on its online multiplayer mode.
Some games that are challenging according to Cliff Bleskinski include Demon's Souls and Dark Souls (pictured).
Gears of War Judgment release date is to be announced some time in 2013.
