I think it's always been like this unfortunately. A lot of great games overshadowed by huge blockbusters. And it's the same in every industry.
Look at the top 25 grossing movies of all time, for example: five Harry Potter movies, three Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and, for good measure, Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
I do think the problem is worse today, in part because of bloated budgets and in part due to lack of imagination, but I don't think it's unique to this generation of games.
