Your theory is flawed at several levels :
If the game below average why does it get top critics and popularity ?
The fact "everyone" has it does create inertia for both the title itself and the franchise, but it doesn't explain how it got there.
There weren't many realistic & successful shooters before COD, and since COD4 the genre has become THE genre. How do you explain a below average game would develop a genre almost by itself ?
