I completely agree. I had the same reaction when i found out about it.

Yet another FPS... yay! We dont have enough of those yet apparantly.

I'm willing to bet with you that FPSs were not released as much as RPGs or Platformers this year.

And even if it is, what's the problem? Why all this hate towards a genre that is doing really well?

Is it because it's doing well that it is provoking anger on you guys?

I don't play JRPG that much but each month there is like megaton of them released in Japan and they are mostly CTRL+C, CTRL+V.

Do I hate them for that? No, I just think who likes that genre is lucky and giving devs a lot of attention with their wallet.

If you think JRPG's are all ctrl+c and ctrl+v, FPS' would be carbon copies.

Seriously... do you remember the first wolfenstein and the first doom? How has the genre's gameplay evolved since those games? They still play the same. I dont understand how some people dont get absolutely fed up by them. Its always the same game gameplay wise with different colors. On a JRPG at least the combat systems change so it really isnt the same gameplay wise.

Couldn't disagree more.  Games like Wolfenstein and Doom for example had "All the weapons you can pick up" and Random Health packs.  Which basically... no FPS uses these days.  Throw in vehicles, cover, ironsights  the various different kinds of guns, different kinds of enemies.  Then throw in the added stuff some do like Bioshock or those games where you hack peoples brains etc... it changes a lot more then your average RPG franchise. 

Really no FPS plays like Wolfenstein or Doom did.
