Clearly, First-Person Shooters offer something primal and unique: the illusion of carrying weaponry and blasting foes before your very eyes. But why must people exclusively tote guns? How else might the innate strengths of first-person immersion be harnessed? In writing, a first-person narrator can tell any kind of story: family drama, crime thriller, quirky romance, children's fable. But today you largely don't see other genres use this point-of-view. Such wasn't always the case.

Wccftech joined a press roundtable Q&A with Blizzard to learn more about The War Within, World of Warcraft's tenth expansion that is now in Alpha.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
They are way over doing themselves and by the time the call of duty and Halo franchises come to an end I don't think they will be very popular anymore.
they're doomed because they refuse to do anything different. eventually even the slack jaws are gonna tire of modern warfare. psssst devs, let me let you in on a secret: oblivion, bioshock and mirrors edge were successful too, it's not just cod and halo that sell.
Singularity was a breath of fresh air based upon a better and earlier age. That's all I'm saying on this...oh, and I'm sick of modern day war scenarios and propaganda being shoved in my games presented as if fact.
FPS is clearly the most popular genre today, thats why so many developers take the "easy route" and continue to make them, although of course not all make the grade.
Still, I'm more than happy, FPS is my favourite genre. I usually struggle to feel a connection to a character so FPS helps get me immersed. Then again it's "first person" I like, not just the shooting, from Half-life to Unreal, there's plenty of scope there.
FPS aint going anywhere.
mirrors edge is my fav fp game this gen its also my nemasis ....i will get that platinium
