Open-World games are taking over the industry, but do you like this trend?

Yeah last gen was the gen of the coridor shooter and this gen will be the gen of the massive open worlds.  Now this is because these new open world games really weren't possible on last gen hardware.

However I wish we could just get a fair amount of games from every genre.

agreed. i dont want empty open worlds or open world just for the sake of it. if your gonna do it do it right. dont get me wrong, i will play every open world game if it interests me, but i just wish for more linear action games like uncharted and GoW to be out there because i enjoy them a lot. 

When done right, with good pacing and a solid story linear action games are every bit as good as open world games.  Think Max Payne 3.  I have beat that game like 3 times because it's just SO WELL DONE!
