Grand Theft Auto 4 is a shooter? Since when?
And to think, people could build a pc for cheap and play most of these games with better graphics, why on earth would they get them on 360?
People purchased a lot of shooting games? So now the 360 has regained its image as "shooters only console?"
No.

Actually this is true. GTA 4 is not a shooter. You do shoot a lot of people in it though.

Oh I don't know maybe... Just maybe people enjoy playing with friends on xbox live. Cheap PC is now more than a Cheap 360 for the same graphical results.

LOL, no sarcasm. This is actually funny. Conduit will be THE shooter for Wii, hopefully followed by Red Steel 2.
Don't know about any other grand-royale FPS being developed for Wii right now.

Since, well actually because you're from Montana I think its safer for my health to say in GTA IV "guns don't kill people, people kill people".
Tease.
If you want a true picture of the 360 library then you could compare all the games that sold more then 1.5 million copies.
Only 11 out of 35 are FPS/TPS
Sandbox games, WRGP's, Sports Games, Action Games, they make out the rest

The Xbox brand was built on Halo's back, and then expanded by the Gears franchise. Of course the shooter fans are going there.
It's so much more comfortable playing shooters on the 360 controller, add in Live to Halo and Gears as exclusives, and you have shooterbox.
But they have done a really nice job of expanding beyond that. Just beyond that top 10 is a whole mess of quality successes in other genres.
EDIT: I just looked at my gamercard below and saw a good illustration - last 5 games, all of which I love: Halo 3, Fable II, Worms, Lips, and Fallout 3. Pretty diverse.
