Think Left 4 Dead 2 is an expansion? You're an idiot.

Im pretty sure it happened because of Direct X 9. Before Direct X 9 games were generally innovative. After Direct X 9 and onto 10 and 11 the games just started becoming clones of one another. Obviously it was Microsofts fault, they should have never released a new Direct X version!

Yes.. obviously... There is absolutely no other explanation!

Spin it however you want, consoles have reduced gaming to a repetition of games most of which shouldn't even be considered passable.

Or possibly it was due to developers getting bored of releasing games using the same old keyboard + mouse interface. They found the innovation of consoles with different analogue stick placements refreshing and thats why console games are FAR more innovative than PC only games.
