And as far as era of creativity...are you joking? With that list? Maybe LBP if the hype is to be believed, but the rest is just more of the same we've been getting for years.

 

I'm just trying to make interesting discussion. If you disagree, then that's great. Though, I'd like to see some examples.

I've played similar, and often better games highly similar to most of the games you listed, and that's the problem.  I'd rather play those older games again than spend  hundreds of dollars playing shinier, stripped down, mainstream versions.  It's just more RPGs, more FPS, and more Tekken, doing little more than what previous iterations did.  And that's ok, gaming doesn't have to follow any one person's idea of what's worthwhile, but you' made a mighty statement there.

Not to say those games will be bad, but far from shining examples of imagination, innovation or creativity.
