That's all 100% subjective. In fact in many cases your opinion goes against the predominant view of the game industry, especilly in Third Person Shooter (Uncharted or Last of Us), Sim Racing (Gran Turismo), Cinematic (kinda made up category, but Heavy Rain or Beyond), 2D platformer (LittleBigPlanet), Action Adventure (God of War or Ratchet and Clank or possibly Horizon),  and fighting (Street Fighter).

And, since you're counting the likes of Tomb Raider, there's plenty of timed exclusives that come into play: The Witness, No Man's Sky, Shenmue, Kojima Production's game, etc.

But I'll give you RTS (by default), and Arcade Racer (I guess, not sure what you're referring to here, but PGR hasn't been released in 7 years)

Your right. But this gen as follows MS wins in the genres with either no answer from Sony or they have released a game but wasnt as good.

This gen

FPS - Halo 5

TPS - Gears Of War 4

Cinematic - Quantum Break

Action adventure - Rise Of The Tomb Raider

Sim Racing - Forza Motorsport 6

Arcade Racing - Forza Horizon 2

Fighting - Killer Instinct

2d Platformer - Orin And the Blind Forest

Certainly if we take right now I don't believe MS loses on any of these. Of course I expect Uncharted 4 to give ROTR a run for that genre. Gran Tourism is only a demo this year so wont touch Forza 6 in the slightest. This is all my opinion of course.

If we use current metacritic scores for these genres on titles already released in the first 2 years the Xbox One wins all these genres quite easily.

So anyway, my point is MS are doing better game wiae than ever in the history of Xbox. We should be celebrating good times for Xbox.

Street fighter V has a higher metacritic then killer instinct. Raymen legends also beat Orin and the blind forest.
