I'm not pissing and moaning. You don't see me preaching to people to stop paying for live. I already said that if you want to pay for live then more power to you. Support the company that you prefer and move on with your life. Also when was the last time a great multi plat (i know you would say halo) shooter came out? This isn't including Far Cry 3 cause it's clearly, according to reviews, the best fps this year. Doesn't count cause it's not even out though. Most shooting games are mindless. Shoot here...move to objective...shoot some more bad guys to get to other objective yeah yeah yeah I get it. I'm a North American so I'm basically making fun of my own kind. Shooting games are mindless and easy because anyone and everyone can pick them up and be good at them. This is what makes them so appealing. Theres a reason CoD has been so successful. MW2 was my first first person shooter EVER and I managed to maintain a 1.5 kd. Shooting games are simply just not hard and that makes them appeal to people who just want to pick up a controller and play without actually thinking about the story. 

If you were that reasonable from the get go, you woudln't have made your OP.

When was the last time a great multiplayer shooter came out? That's subjective.

 

I still play Japanese games on occasion and they're pretty mindless as well.

Yakuza, run here, beat some one up, talk, beat someone up.
Resident Evil, point here, shoot zombie, tallk, insert puzzle piece, shoot a monster.
Metal Gear Solid, watch a cutscene, walk here, watch a cutscene.
Final Fantasy, watch cutscene, walk here, mash attack, heal, mash attack, walk here, watch cutscene.
Monster Hunter, talk, walk, slash, slash, boring!
Phantasy Star, slash, slash, slash....
Tales of anything, slash, slash, slash...
Mario games, jump, run, jump...

Most Japanese games are also mindless entertainment as well. You're over analyzing shooting games because you personally don't enjoy them. You seem to be under the illusion you're a superior person because you enjoy the same old crap Japan has been pumping out since the 90s... you sir, need to reassess your life.
