It's not a first person shooter. It's a first person adventure with shooting elements.
|
Exactly...It fits more into the category of FPS then action-adventure.
|
Metroid Prime is not a shooter. There are more than just shooting in Metroid Prime, there are elements like Morph Ball mazes, platform jumping, and puzzle solving. And I say these elements are more than 50% of the gameplay experience.

Your first sentence contradicts your second...Take a look yourself.

Once again, I'm going to say that it's a first-person adventure game with shooting elements. It's kinda like how Zelda is a third-person adventure with RPG elements. Also I played this game less than 48 hours ago so I doubt I need a gamespot review.

The sentence in bold proves that indeed it is a FPS. Secondly do you recall me saying anything about it just been FPS?Yes your right, I'm wrong including Gamespot.
|
Yes, you and Gamespot are wrong. It's not a FPS. This has been substantiated for years. Gamespot simply doesn't have a FPA category in their CMS.
By your accounts, Duck Hunt is a FPS.
|
Take a look at the bold. By your account Wikipedia is wrong, Ign is wrong, etc...
|
I know you didn't say it was JUST a FPS but you can't call it a FPS just because it shares some elements of the genre.
I'm make it simple for you, I'm in the media and when Shiggy and Retro Studios tell me it's a FPA, it's an FPA.
You also might want to check Wikipedia and IGN again. They call the series a FPA, not FPS.
