Does anyone else wish that video game companies made games that are harder to beat. I mean you buy a game for 60 dollars and then you beat it in a week. I always find myself trying to prolong games I buy.

i think harder games are a blast to play and are very satisfying when you beat them. i think developers need to start making hardass games again. alien hominid was a great start.

Yeah, I'd definitely like to see more games that are impossible to beat, just like back in the old days. I don't mind short games as long as their satisfyingly difficult.

I don't like games that feel like they made the game insanely difficult just so that it took you longer to beat the game because  they didn't have enough content.

I don't know if anyone else here played it, but Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth felt that way to me.  I beat it eventually, with a game time of like 7 hours, but it probably took me 20.

It just felt uneven.

it would be worth it the money if it was long and hard. not like smooth moves where it cost 50 bucks, and beat it in 1hr

yeah, I've had much more trouble with Donkey Kong Country since I bought it than I ever did with Twilight Princess. They make these epic games, but they make them easy so they get a bigger audience. There's no trial and error. I would have more Wii games if I couldn't just buy a VC game for 8 bucks that will last me much longer. And this is coming from someone who's first system was a gamecube.

Metroid
REsident Evil
Pikmin
Zelda

and some games that are really short but never die out...

Halo:Combat evolved..... not halo 2
