I miss really hard games, even on high difficulties games nowadays are waaaay too easy. Mass Effect 2&3? Skyrim? On highest difficulty? Shockingly easy. And thats not even the worst thing, when game developers try to make games harder they simply increase the HP of enemies / increase damage or decrease ammo availability instead of making enemies smarter, using tactics etc.
Thats what I miss most, hard games.

I miss that homey, "this was created by a group of passionate geeks in their garage" feeling that some games used to have, back before videogames became more commercialized.

I miss the times when games wouldn't hold my hand and when I wouldn't care about reviews or fan opinions.

I miss the lack of auto-reload or at the very least the option to toggle it off in shooters.

Anyone here remember the boss in Final Fantasy XII on PS2 that had 50 milion HP (seriously) and took around 2 hours to beat (seriously)?

I like those big optional and massive challenges games used to have.

ME3 had something like that in the form of the exercise minigame for Shepard.

I miss epic boss fights that took half an hour to finish and needed even longer prep time, it felt like you'd actually done something if it took forever

There were two battles in DA2 that took me over an hour to beat.

Also, although they didn't take as long, quite a few battles in The Witcher 2 definitely required prep time beforehand on the hardest difficulty.

Not seeing every genius game franchise acquired/ruined to pull in the idiot dollar, then carelessly tossed aside like s much garbage.

I also miss reading the game manuals. I used to read them on the way home when I was a kid, as soon as my parents bought the game. Even now, old games, I still love reading the gaming manual, even before I start playing - I guess out of habit.

These days, game manuals have health disclaimer information, copywright information, and a minimal layout of the controller.  For more advanced controls or nuances in the games, you're on your own.  Any kind of guild system, character traits, and so forth will not be explained to you at all.  Three page manuals are becoming the norm now and this is a bad change.  In a way, it discounts the physical copies of the disks.  Back in the day, you always had a plot summary, character biographies, controls, trade/attribute/etc system explained in depth...  back then, you could pick up a game from where you left off years ago and still be able to figure out what you were doing and what's going on.  The bare-minimum approach to manuals is a very bad idea.  I just miss the old manuals.

I miss game manuals. Split screen multiplayer, and when the common people treated gaming as for the unwashed degenerates and left it alone.

Sometimes, but it's more commonly become known as DLC.

I miss being able to create an entire control scheme instead of dealing with the ones given to us.(on consoles)

****ty Gameplay.

Aspects of Gaming? The ability to buy or sell a used game, and the ability to install an play a game without an internet connection. Also the ability to return games to the store and get your money back if it is a terrible game.

The amount of customization in NFS Underground 2: You could litereally customize every part of your car and you got rewarded with customization points. Because of this, there was more of a focus on building a car from the ground up and making it the best on the road as opposed to going after an exotic car. Plus, it made for a whole bunch of color scheme options. I haven't seen a modern racing series that comes close to this game in terms of customization and the rewarding feeling of having an elite car. 

I think the problem is that most people are simply no longer into the whole crazy modification scene and the Fast & Furious demeanor.

It's just not 1998 any more. Even the Fast & Furious franchise has switched its focus from street racing with a bunch of riced out Hondas to heist films with expensive exotic super cars and classics.
