| Azzanation said: Just wanted to point out that thought the years of gaming, FPS games have become more popular and is one of the most popular genres in gaming today. Each year that passes by iv notice a trend, one that shouldnt get ignored. Thats the reviews. FPS games get handled so strickly in reviews that its almosty a garentee that they will be critisized regardless of the quilty of the game. Look at the list below as an example. Metacritic (Based off platform with most reviews) Titanfall - 86 Far Cry 4 - 85 Fallout 4 - 85 Halo 5 - 84 Call of Duty BO3 - 81 Battlefield 4 - 81 Dying Light - 75 Killzone SF - 73 Battlefront - 72 Thief - 70 I have missed afew games this generation, feel free to add them to my list. If you havent notice that regardless on how good these games are, they have all been critisized for something and there scores have been heavly downgraded. This day and age i will say that the FPS market of games is one of the hardest judged genres out there. Reviewers have such a high standard when reveiwing them that we will no longer see FPS games reach 90s meta anymore. The days of Halo CE 97, Half Life 96 and Portal 95 one of the best reviewed games in gaming history are only history. Would we see this genre back to where it use to be on the review cards? Or every year these games are just getting lower and lower. |
To play the devils advocate, do you perhaps think FPS games just haven't been all that good lately? Not that any of those scores are actually bad, but I haven't played a FPS I thought deserved a 90+ in a long, long time now.
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
