It was either too hard for me, and if I stop the game I would have to replay the difficult parts again and that go on my nerves. Plus when it gets hard, it's scary sometimes. Does anyone think a person can be too old to play videogames and maybe the younger generation is more adapt to playing such horror games with ease?

Games: Resident Evil 5 (PS3)
When I was younger I would get scared during the original Resident Evil. When Resident Evil 5 came out my friend and I beat it in one night and had a blast. I think the term you're looking for is desensitization. The young generation of today is much more desensitized towards violence and horror than previous generations because of all the latest trends of violence in movies, video games, and television. It's kinda sad actually. When a game is rated M it means don't let your 12 year old play it. Yet it seems like 80% of Black Ops players are in grade school.

Oh, yes. I've been frightened many times while playing games. If its a good game I'll usually power through and and still want more horror. I guess you could say its prevented me from being nearly as scared of various things in real life, haha.

I've never been too scared to finish a game, but some games have made me feel creeped out and tense due to scariness. Survival/horror used to be my favorite genre before it wad pretty much phased out, and I was always really happy if a game could scare me or freak me out. It was kinda rare, sadly. One thing I found was that the harder the difficulty, the scarier and more intense the game gets. I'm not sure if it has anything to due with age or generations. My first scary game experiences were Resident Evil and Silent Hill, and I was a tween when I played them (not too young, but still well under the intended age for the games, being rated M) and I was never scared. Yes, the games made me jump and they were creepy, but especially in the case of Silent Hill, I was way too enthralled to actually stop playing.

Dead Space is about as creepy as they come in my opinion, something about morphed humans with blades as arms that'll rip you apart at the first chance they get, AFTER jumping out of a vent in the ceiling into a room covered with blood with a flickering lightbulb? Yeah, creepy creepy.
