I don't think of this so much as genre. I think of this as Mirror's Edge

JRGPs and RTS.

Too few games these days require use of the brain.

A genre that is comprised of a single game is pretty much the definition of not getting enough love.

A genre that is comprised of a single game is pretty much the definition of not getting enough love.

But at what point does a genre come into existance. Just because it is radically different doesn't make it a new genre. When Super Mario 64 came out I'm willing to bet the genre was just platformer, not 3d platformer. You need more than one game to be a genre and, no, a sequel doensn't count.
