How this Gen almost Ended Console Gaming (For Me at least)

And off the top of my head, FP games that have released in the last  years...

Resistance 3,Homefront,Call of Duty MW2,Call of Duty BO2, Dishonored, Medal of Honor, Halo 4 soon, Borderlands 2,XCOM,Battlefield,Sniper Elite and the list goes on and on. FP games are all the media ever wants to talk about unless you are Assassin's Creed  and they are the most Sequel prone of any genre, coming on a yearly basis.

XCOM is not an FPS it's the best turnbassed stratergy game in years. The FPS is in development hell, and rumours suggest that it's 3rd person now.  

And also non FP games in just this year. Sleeping Dogs, Darksiders 2, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Mass Effect 3, Soulcalibur V, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Twisted Metal, Binary Domain, Silent Hill: Downpour, Ninja Gaiden 3, Prototype 2, Game of Thrones, Dragon's Dogma, Max Payne 3, Inversion, Dirt: Showdown, Lollipop Chainsaw, Spec Ops: The Line, Risen 2: Dark Waters, Resident Evil 6, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Assassin's Creed III, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, Hitman: Absolution an more.

And that isn't even including downloadable PC, and portable games, and also ignoring licensed stuff. There are games for everyone these days.

Sleeping Dogs, Darksiders 2, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Mass Effect 3, Soulcalibur V, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Twisted Metal, Binary Domain, Silent Hill: Downpour, Ninja Gaiden 3, Prototype 2, Game of Thrones, Dragon's Dogma, Max Payne 3, Inversion, Dirt: Showdown, Lollipop Chainsaw, Spec Ops: The Line, Risen 2: Dark Waters, Resident Evil 6, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Assassin's Creed III, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, Hitman: Absolution, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter X Tekken.

I concur that yes there are many other games coming out, but the balance between them is all off. I just personally despise 1st Person View, its a pet peeve of mine. I just hate the sight of hands just sticking out the screen and the idea that the motions are restricted to this box of view doesn't seem natural to me. Only game I liked 1st person in was Mirror's Edge. And what I didn't address was that part of my distaste for the genre is that it is synonymous with guns. 3rd Person games and Action games are guilty of this. I think they are too centered on in games these days, or maybe I just don't see the facination. Shooting someone has to be the boringest way to end someone....now decapitating them with a sword is different :P
