Is PS4 a "shooter box"? *ShooterSation4?* (SS4) did it take the tittle from the 360?

This is a joke, right? Look at the sales. PS3 has always been a shooter box. Just because it wasn't as successful a shooter box as the 360 doesn't mean it doesn't hold that distinct shooter box badge with proud shooter box honor. Out of the PS3's top 15, 11 were shooters. Out of the 360's, 13 were shooters. They are both shootery shooters' shooter boxes.

...Shooter.

You know what wasn't a shooter box? The Wii. Know what the Wii's best selling shooter is? Link's Cross Bow training... At number 22. The best selling COD was COD 3... At 51. And the Wii U still won't be a shooter box. (though shooters'll probably sell better on it than last gen) Meanwhile, PS4 and XBO will just trade places. PS4 will sell more shooters while XBO will sell less. Still a lot. Still shooters. Still shooter boxes.

God, I wish shooters sold better on Nintendo consoles, though... I love shooters... Dat Wii Remote Plus mouse-like presision. Mmm...

All good points.

The voting is hilarious to me.  It's the factual reality of the PS4's upcoming line up, but people are denying what is right in front of them.  Sony made sure and had their biggest first party FPS franchise as a launch title while Microsoft's only big franchise launch title is a racing game with no shooters at all.  

In fact, I'd imagine that if this poll were done a year from now the results would STILL look the same, despite the line-ups.  Shooterbox has been a condescending term used by PS fanboys, so there is no way they would vote any other way on a poll like this.  

I love it when a poll exposes biases.
