Most FPSs are bad, most devs are clueless?

Yes, they are really bad. 93 75.61%
 
No, they are amazing. 29 23.58%
 
Total:122

I'm not really a fan of most racing games. Should I make a thread putting down racing games and telling people why I think they suck? If you don't like them,that's fine,but alot of other's do.

I can replace FPS with pretty much any other genre and say the exact same thing.

Especially JRPGs.

Where as bad FPS games sell millions easily, but only the best JRPGs sell over a million. This was his point, that people buy FPSs whether they're good or not. Not many people buy bad JRPGs.

There is not a single bad FPS that sells millions. A bad FPS cannot turn into a franchise.

I liked Fallout 3, Far Cry 3, Bioshock, Killzone 2 and some others. I made the thread because it is crazy to me how crappy most of the BIG FPSs are. After playing Crysis 3 and Metro Last light I was like... Wow, this is reaaaaally bad, and it sell so much. And those are gems compared to Call of Duty, so, I guess it deserves some discussion.

Also, if you make the racing thread, post the link, I will be honored to read and make a comment.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Bad is a relative term. Whether or not they are bad in your opinion doesn't change my point. If there are a JRPG and a FPS in the same league, the FPS will sell more guaranteed. This might change, but currently that's how it is.

Is it because FPSs have to have near perfect game mechanic and be competitive that attracts more gamers?

Humans love competition and in video game, FPSs and Sports titles are what quench that thirst.

Some FPSs are good. Some are bad. This goes for all game genres.


you are right, but to hate on fps s the cool thing to do

I'm not going to complain if fewer fps's are made because the market was super flooded last gen. But I still like them.

Metro: Last Light is bad? Weird, its the best single player FPS I've played in a while. I just bought the redux versions despite finishing the game recently. I must have really bad taste. Oh well, let the "fun police" dictate what is and isn't fun.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine
