There are some trends atm that I don't like (more simplification etc.) but generally speaking its the same. Good games come out, bad games come out.
As someone who grew up with nes and atari, I would have to agree that there will always be bad games and good games they?ve gotten much better in the broad sense: since those days the games have gotten much more variety, better looks, and longer play. But have they gotten better than the last generation? I don?t know. I perceive Fallout 3 to be at least as rich an experience than San Andreas was for me last gen (in terms of open world exploration) but I would have to say I haven?t found a driving game as fun as Burnout Revenge or anything as trippy as Katamari (except the recent katamari games). I?m hoping that by the time this gen of consoles ripens (which should be happening right around now) we will know things are better.
However, I do agree with you that some trends seem a bit dangerous for the industry (like more simplification and the continued use of QTEs).
