Before I go on, I don't have anything against FPS games, I actually quite enjoy them but I'm sick to death of going to a game store and just seeing FPS games fucking everywhere. New Call of Duty, new Medal of Honour, new Crysis. Good lord, don't people get bored of playing the same kind of game day in day out?
I mean we've just had the PS4 thing from Sony which I mentioned yesterday and already we've had fucking Destiny and Killzone. Keeping in mind that the other games were Knack and inFamous (and I'm not counting that "announcement" from Square as a thing, fuck off) that's half the line up so far as fucking FPS games. If there were more games than that I don't care, 2 is too many.
I'm a big fan of Rhythm games, I enjoy all sorts of shit from Voltex to DDR to Beatmania, it's great. But if I just played rhythm games every time I went to the game centre and every time I came home then I probably would have quit gaming by now, that shit would be stale.
I wouldn't even be so annoyed about it if the styles were varied. If we had some more Doom/Quake-esque FPS games at least there would be some variation on the theme. I know it's probably not going to happen because this shit sells like hot cakes but I've got my fingers crossed on there being significantly less semi realistic military shooters in the upcoming generation.
Note: I know Destiny isn't quite a "military" FPS but it's still the same kind of game play that I'm bored of.
