I guess your right, I made a mistake. I thought you were calling MGS a niche game, but being we both know it can be played as a shooter, it's a lot more then a stealth game.

So you were saying one of the ways it can be played is in a market dominated my MGS... you made no reference to it's appeal in the other markets it's in.

Fair enough.

Actually I referred to it as a stealth shooter earlier in the thread.  I was actually worried about people attacking me  for that, because whenever people claim MGS4 is a shooter in the "which console is a shooter" debate, Sony fans shoot them down.

I dont think shooter fans would pick MGS4 over Gears of War or Halo 3 or CoD4 for their shooter-fix generally speaking.  Stealth as a genre is declining, but as I said, it remains dominated, more than ever, by MGS4. 

 

 So I originally read your post to imply that you feel MGS only appeals to Stealth Shooter fans, and you said I was wrong. Then after I apologize, you reiterate that you think MGS only appeals to stealth shooter fans.

So that we are on the same page, let me ask you some quick yes/no questions.

 

1. Do you think MGS appeals to more then Stealth Shooter fans?
2. Do you you think stealth shooter games now fall into a niche market?
3. Do you you think BioShock appeals to a wide audience?

 

 That should clear up the confusion :)
