everytime you look at a thread about an FPS theres always at least one person saying "ugh, im sick andtired of FPS, give me something new." or some such thing. FPS is my favorite genre and personaly im sick of people that are sick of FPS's. Anyone agree? dont flame if you are one of those people, this threadis not for you.

Same, although I'm a little tired of the WW2 shooters though.

Shooters are my favorite game type. As long as it is a good game, I'll play it.

All people in Japan play are RPGs. Do people there complain about yet another RPG?

I hate FPS games most of the time. And I hate most RPGs.

Thrid Person Shooters have ALOT more you can do to them.

And action RPG's are MUCH better then a strait up RPG

Ya know, I used to HATE fps. Maybe it was that they werent super realistic with last gen's graphics, so I hated 'em. But, RFOM changed all of that. I freaking loved that game, and it even made me appreciate R6V alot more too. I like fps now, and am ready for Killzone 2 and RFOM 2!!!! lol.

theiceman08

to each their own, and you're entitled to like whatever tickles your fancy.....

the reason there is this huge backlash against all these FPS titles is.....there's all these FPS titles!!!! Too much of anything is always a bad thing (accept money). We are reliving what happened in the mid 90's when there were all these Street Fighter clones! Besides, how many different ways can you press R1 to shoot?

If there were more variety of games on the market, this wouldn't be an issue. But right now, especially as a PS3 owner eagerly anticipating a new title for this console, to hear that the new "hot" game is an FPS is BEYOND frustrating because thats what happened LAST month and the month before that!!!! Globally, the American gamer looks like a fool stuck on shooting and blowing things up! Thats why the "other" console is only successful here AND an FPS just so happens to be their main money maker!

fps's are straight on pcs. i hate them on consoles. the dual stick layout always feels clunky to me, and i believe you cant get any better than a mouse and keyboard. But, for action games, i like them better on consoles.

first person shooter's are my favorite, I bought like every one available for PS2, and there really weren't that many--I couldn't be happier with the great selection of FPS's available on PS3.

Most of the FPS are pretty lame if they don't have a good story, but the FPP[First Person Puzzler] Portal gave the genre a breath of fresh air. Preordered it for the PS3[Orange Box] and got just portal on steam. It is awesome.

I'm pretty sick of them at this point. That's part of the reason I probably won't get UT3 or Orange Box, despite the reviews. I will be getting Crysis, but that's because I'm a graphics whore and loved the (very unoptimized) beta.

I really want more fighters, RPGs, and action/adventure games.

the reason i bought a playstation is because it has always had the most balanced library of games, u go to 360 u find fps and shooters all mature games, u got to wii, u find kiddie games, the recent increase of fps's being developed is exciting but there should also be at the sametime other games comin as well

Nope you aren't the only one. If you gave me COD 4, UT3, Haze and R6 and Bioshock all at the same time, I wouldn't get tired of them.

I side with the FPS's of the world. I love them, I love 3rd person shooters also, I can't get enough I love WWII shooters to so kill me over that one.. my only 1 big problem is that the same people who complain about too many FPS games also complain about games that are innovative like.. LAIR!! which I happened to thoroughly enjoy also..

The problem is there are too many bland FPS games coming out. you just have to focus on the amazing ones like Killzone 2, Resistance, and *gasp* Halo 3.

no not really. I really want COD4. Also UTIII and Killzone 2, they are good games for showing of the system. However I also like true RPGs and 3rd Person Shooters. Not to mention racers, platformers, etc.

I like FPS's but I gotta admit that the FPS market is pretty saturated. It seems like those are the only games that are coming out nowadays and the controls get repetitive. One button to shoot, grenades, pick up weapon, switch weapon, melee. That's about it....

I'm not a huge fan of the FPS genre, but when I do purchase one I look for something that sets it apart from the conventional military-themed shooter. The Darkness, although not the greatest game, is one of my favorite comics. Bioshock is amazing in every regard, but the whole underwater city thing intrigues me. Resistance is cool, because it rewrites history (alien swarm overtakes Russia and Europe - no WW II).

We need more RPGs is all. A lot more of them and adventure games to balance things out...then it won't seem like we're getting FPSs choked down our throat.

Dude, if shooting people (let's face, the majority of FPS is about shooting people) is the only joy you love, and point-click is the only motion you enjoy (read, the most repetitive motion ever created in video games), then of course you love FPS.

But for me? I enjoy working my brains (puzzle, adventure game), watching a find story unfold (RPG), lots of cool moves and motions on my finger tip(action and platformer), and much much more.

So yeah, I'm sick of FPS, and you now know why.

I'm not a big fan of FPS, and it's kinda boring to see more of the same type of FPS' come out. But it's your favorite genre so no one should bash you for that, it's your thing.

I do enjoy the occasional FPS, I dislike/get bored of most of them, but some (Black, Republic Commando, Rainbow Six Vegas) are amazing games. And I can't wait to play Haze.

all call of duty and tom clancy games are boring to me. I don't know about call of duty 4 we'll see when it comes out. I like Resistance. I am a new PS3 owner. I am really hoping there are more TPS like MGS4 and Uncharted

I only stick with the good ones, it helps if you avoid the crap. These are the games I own so far this generation

Resistance

The Darkness

Bioshock

Halo 3

Orange Box

And believe it or not, I'm not a huge shooter fan. Its just that all of those games are quality for one reason or another and they are all different enough for me to enjoy them and consider them to be good. The FPS trend will change though as soon as games like Ace Combat 6, Uncharted and Mass Effect come out. Except I'll be getting CoD4 as well.

Its just that running around taking people's heads off with a shotgun or sniper rifle is so satisfying.

I know exactly what you mean. I am in the same boat myself and Bioshock was the answer and cod4 beta was also a prayer. I have been leaning more towards driving and flight simulations and i am addicted to world in conflict. IMO most kids run out get the games rush through them just to say they beat it .....Wonk wonk wonk.

First Person Shooters are basically the biggest genre in gaming, next to Sports.

There are an awful lot of them, and not that many of them are great.

I'm certainly tired of bad FPS games.

They were never really my thing, but Resistance was a good game...so at this point I'm in the middle whereas before I hated them...
