Maybe. But no Doom, Perfect Dark, Quake, Counter Strike, Half Life 1, Timesplitters 2, Wolfenstein, etc.

Also shooters is a very broad genre. It also includes arcade shooters, shootem ups, and side scroller shooters. So House of the Dead, Duck Hunt, Space Invaders, etc.

For such praise of the genre I see very little knowledge of the greatest ones in it. New age definition I presume of the shooter genre which is why so much is forgotten.

It's a great genre but I think it still competes with RPGs, platformers, and Strategies for the most celebrated.
