It would probably be like how it was in the 90's but with online gaming and fewer FPS games. Overall, awesome

Hmmm... there were actually a ton of FPS games in the 90s.

I'm gonna name some off the top of my head... Wolfenstien, Doom, Heretic, Hexen, Quake, Blake Stone, Unreal, Turok, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Alien vs Predetor, Descent, Powerslave, Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, Half Life, Blood, Redneck Rampage, Shogo MAD, South Park, Medal of Honor, etc.

Here's the irony about your statement. Nintendo and Sega were really pushing FPS games in the 90s. The N64 was a very popular console for shooters. Sega published popular shooters on the Saturn and used shooters to push online gaming for the Dreamcast.

I meant military shooters like Battlefield and Call of Duty and anything else like it. Medal of Honour was really the only one, Battlefield didn't come until 1999/2000. Shooters were more about fun than realism back then. But gaming seemed to be more about platformers back then at least until the Playstation became really popular. Maybe one genre wasn't massively dominant back then
