GoNintendo: I think we're all betting that this one is The Conduit 2 when the first image hit, but now we can see a bit more of the poster. Clearly there's someone in some kind of armor standing behind the logo, and that also fits in quite well with The Conduit.
GamerFitNation: irst person shooters were the craze in the beginning of this current console generation. Through the years however, we have seen how this genre has culminated into a popular genre with games like Call of Duty, Battlefield, and other classics like the Halo franchise. When you look at the amount of first person shooter titles available now it seems that every system has a flagship first person title. Sony had Resistance/Killzone, Xbox has Halo, and Nintendo whether you like it or not had The Conduit.
Definitely, Halo and COD are so overrated.. and over saturated the 360 when we should have had quality titles from Rare. MS shafted us bad.
PS4 and PC for me next gen.
are you kidding me? how is Halo overrated? it deserves every bit of praise it receives, because the games are so well made and highly polished with excellent multiplayer and amazing single player campaigns.
Yeah, certain games that refuse to stand out will hopefully see their downfall. There are still plenty of good FPS games/series though. Far Cry 3 and Borderlands 2 being fairly recent examples. Both great games, but not standard FPS mediocre/bad games.
I would include Crysis, but that series is steadily getting worse, focusing far more on graphics and selling their engine than atmosphere, gameplay and story.
The first Bioshock game is still one of the best games of the generation. Bioshock 2 was still good, but just not as good. Infinite looks like it will be great, and really excited about it.

I hope the simple point and shoot variety is on the downfall, but the type like Deus Ex I hope we see more of.
Deus Ex was great, I'm enjoying Dishonored at the moment too. A lot can be done with first person games (remember Mirror's Edge!), they don't all have to feature running and gunning everything that moves.
"It might be people’s desires and preferences that might be declining but the quality of FPS’s are getting better as the generation pans out. Hopefully Bioshock Infinite will change all of that"
I know you didn't mean it like that but the way that was phrased made it sound like you wanted Bioshock Infinite to STOP the FPS genres increase in quality.
Did motion controls mix with first-person shooters? Here, we discuss the Wii's rocky history with FPS.
n00bketeers.com: "It’s a Jason and Beez duo outing this week as they cover the week’s news, discuss Deus Ex and Mass Effect 3, and reference Conduit 2 more than any other podcast in history.

Obviously thats a conduit.
I hope they nailed it this time around.
