First of all, stop calling Metroid Prime 3 a FPS, it's a FPA, and it really doesn't play like a shooter. It's more of a FPS than other Metroids, but still mostly Metroid.

It's not a pure FPS, but that's still one of its genres, along with adventure.


Not really.

Metroid is about getting powerups, exploring, and solving puzzles.

FPS games are generally about shooting enemies until you reach a destination, kill all the enemies, etc.

Bioshock is an FPS and it has adventure elements like problem solving, powerups, and exploring. Same goes for Doom.
