Instead of saying what would (after all, why would I give you my ideas or how could I tell you the future?) lets just give you some past FPS's that did some great things: Halo: Introduced a nice control and gameplay mechanics and allowed for some amazing multiplayer
Gears of War: Great cover system. Cover had been done before, but nothing like this
Portal: Do I really need to say anything?
Bioshock: Amazing atmosphere and great storytelling
Half-Life 2: Interactive cut scenes and physics puzzles
Resistance: Fall of Man: 40 player multiplayer
Halo 3: Amazing depth multiplayer, 4 player co-op I'm sure there are more, those were just some off the top of my head. Also, a game doesn't have to be revolutionary to be good, it just has to be good and not be stale. As others have said, Haze might very well be a good game but the fact it's lumped in with a whole crapload of other games just like it, it's hard to make it seem like something special. |
It's worth mentioning that, aside from the cover system which I'm not sure of, everything you listed was done on the PC first. And in some cases, 10+ years before. Portal is the exception since it was on the 360 shortly after the PC (a year?), and I'm not sure if anything existed before it quite like it. The best first person shooter multiplayer I've played was Team Fortress for GLQuake. That was absolutely amazing, groundbreaking, awesome mulitplayer online gaming. In 1997. Counter-Strike was awesome in 2000. |
Agian, we're not talking about PC here.
Also, just curious, what game had a cover system that is better than Gears 10 years ago?
