Every new FPS that gets shown, gets labeled as "another generic FPS". Whether it is Killzone 2, Halo 3, Haze, Gears 2, The Conduit, Far Cry 2 etc, many people will claim its just "another generic FPS".
What is it that makes these games so generic and why is it a bad thing?
What would a FPS have to do to not get labeled generic?
It seems that the FPS genre gets labeled generic a lot worse than any other genre. Why do people think a FPS will be crap because you think it looks generic?
