What's with these rehashes and generic games? (long)

[Cheebee]

Well, developers keep making those games because people buy them. Different, more original games typically sell a lot less. People want the tried and true formula. Over and over again. As to why, I dunno. Haven't got a clue. I've never played any of these FPS WWII or EA Sports games at all, they just don't interest me. And I totally fail to see what others see in them. But well, that's how it goes with all popular products. Movies, music, games... people just buy the mainstream crap, the stuff that's been done before to death. That's never gonna change.
