The whole first person shooter genre.

I just never got why its so popular. Every game has the same gameplay with a different face... i dont understand how people dont get tired. I got bored of FPS' when i played my first 2 back on the PC (and they are pretty bad to play on controllers aswell).

I would like to see the rise of the MMORPG genre on consoles though. I believe that the tablet controller and hard drive on the WiiU gives it the perfect handling support for such games.

Thats like saying Racing, Fighting, Platforming, RPG etc genres should die too.

Not all FPS games are the same ;) .

Is it really? Because i can see gameplay differences in racers, platformers etc that make them different.Say for example on racing games you have simulation racers and arcade racers, its also a limiting genre but less limiting than the FPS one. I gues the 3rd person shooter genre is quite bland aswell but its newer. platformers, RPG, etc vary a lot more and more easily to tinker with to have completely different gameplay feels.

There are the rare cases like Fallout that arent really FPS, but more RPG´s wich are good, but the whole general FPS genre of games like COD, Battlefield, sniper elite, syndicate,homefront, wolfenstein, etc. They all play the same. Its exatly the same game with a different face. They might aswell be expansions of each other.
