No More First-Person Shooters?

After Killzone 2, is there any other PS3 first-person shooter really needed?

Lets see, we have:

• Battlefield: Bad Company
• Killzone 2
• Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
• Call of Duty: World at War
• Call of Duty: 3
• Resistance: Fall of Man
• Resistance 2
• Unreal Tournament III
• The Orange Box
• F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin
• Far Cry 2
• TimeShift

Is there really a need for more?

All I need is three.

Unreal Tournament 3 - Fast paced, Frag-Fest

Resistance 2 - Alien Vs. Human Shooter

Killzone 2 - Tactical-Squad based shooter

What's your take on the over-saturation of the First-Person Shooter genre?

I see you forgot HAZE :P

I would be happy with one more Call of Duty game

Like how fighting games once dominated the industry, I'm sure that this FPS-craze will pass. The only thing is, FPS games are a sure-fire way of making money. First-person? Big guns? Lots of action? It's automatically SOLD to the average American gamer. Who knows, maybe someone will make a new genre of video games that will take the industry by storm.hazelnutman

The key word there needed. A lot of stuff in today's entertainment industry (movies, games, music, etc.) is a bunch of rehashes, but they'll keep shippin the stuff out until it stops making money.

This won't happen again until our society turns their back to "quick action thrills".

Plus, only

• Camelot
• Square-Enix
• Level 5
• Game-Freak
• Square-Soft
• Bio-Ware
• Bethesda(Not Too Sure)
• Atlus

Make good RPG's (In My Own Opinion)

Edit: How the hell could I have forgotten Atlus?!

I'm not being forced to buy them so I don't mind that there are so many. I won't be buying any for a while though.king23_

To answer your question, we don't want another FPS anytime soon. Seriously, I am sick of them. Give us more TPS like Uncharted and Metal Gear.

Personally I can't wait for KillZone 2, I haven't played a FPS in years, last really good one for me was F.E.A.R or Half Life 2...

The stories were facisinating and the graphics were top notch.

Innovation is always welcomed by gamers but I believe the gaming industry is set firmly in a mold on thisFPS thing. In these rough economic times I believe they do not want to take many chances in developing some unique games. We have a lot of remakes and continue the series games coming out in 2009. Lets hope that another rogue is out there in the game developing industry, like the team for LBP.

Personally, I think the real problem is the over-saturation of games, period. There's just too many! Personally, I would rather see all game devs take their time with their game, release it, support it with DLC or extensions for at least 3 years and THEN release another one.

I would also love to see devs release even more downloadable games. I can't have enough of those little gems like Flower, Noby Noby Boy, Fat Princess, Trine or even The Punisher: No Mercy or CellFactor: Psychokinetic Wars.

For a genre that's spammed to death, a break would be great.

Also, I thought you were gone till April? LOL:P

I agree with this. imo Uncharted is the only Shooter of recent that I liked, although KZ2 looks strong.

I want a return of more puzzle type games, mixed with RPGs. Like, Golden Sun TLA, but Action RPG like Fable or something. I loved GS, and am loving LBP, because of the puzzles. Action + puzzles is a surefire win. I especially like good music as well. So in short, I want to have lots of Zelda type games, but with a deep character progression system like non Min/Max Fallout 3 (when played normally, not book hunting)
