MMOs. It might be hard to imagine now, but I think we'll see a lot more MMOFPS and other "MMO versions" of popular console games, console gamers will be playing MMOs without even realizing it.ManicAce

They already are. COD is basically the definition of what an MMOFPS would be, as it pretty much is one.

Last gen was fps, this gen is fps, next gen will be fps as well.

Singleplayer will die out and I'll start playing Mahjong.

Casual gaming with disgusting motion control gimickery, it's sad but could well be true. I still hope FPS and TPS would dominate since they give you the most immersion in gaming.

As long as theres still a few rpg games from Bioware, Bethesda, CD Project Red, Square-Enix, Namco (Tales) and Atlus I can have something to look foward too. Unfortunately FPS's probobly won't go away, I don't hate the genre, Bioshock was quite good, but I really don't care for any of the others. I think it will stay about the same, shooters being the most mass produced genre with a few gems in the action adventure, rpg and such genres. Personally, I would love to see the rise of jrpgs again on consoles, not handhelds, but there are too many "bro" gamers or so called "hardcore" gamers for this to happen.

RPG hybrid. We saw a bit of it this gen with some great games. Next gen it will take over :PSaltyMeatballs
I agree with this and it will be great. Adding RPG elements to games makes them more immersive imo. GTA with skill and weapon upgrades, more choices that affect how the world reacts to you. Platformers with skill trees, weapon upgrades TPS with stat and weapon upgrades

Hopefully not more FPS. Anything would be fine as long as we don't get more shooters. I would satisfied seeing mmo's, racing games, platfromers, or rpg's take over next generation.

So what genre of game will dominate next gen?

Will it be:

FPS again (God please NO)

JRPGs (Lol they sadly died out)

WRPGs (hmm more Bioware is always good)

Platformers?? (nah but all hail MARIO)

TPS (yessahh its more fun when FPS)

RTS (Lolwut?)

So what genre do you see dominating and what genre would you like to see more of next gen.

What are you talking about, man? BioWare -- what the heck is that? We've got CDProjekt and the Witcher. It's better. It's gritty like it's dark and there are naked women and elves that use vulgar language and swooosh! *swings imaginary sword* dragons!!

That's what storytelling is all about, man. It's gritty and it's dark.

@SkyWard20

You sound like your 13 years old....... The witcher is a great series, but not for the immature reasons you posted. And I wouldn't say its better than Mass Effect or Dragon Age either, but thats my opinion. Why only have one developer? Play all the WRPG's from all the companies = much more entertainment.

For Wii owners, this gen was Platformers - two 3D Marios, one 2D Mario, a new Donkey Kong platformer, two Kirby games, de Blob, and four Sonic games (though only one was truly great). And maybe Super Paper Mario if you count it.


But yeah, I'm going with either Action/Adventure or the third-person shooter as my choice. I predict people will get tired of shooters - they got tired of WWII shooters, at least. It's only a matter of time before the modern shooter goes the same route, methinks.

jrpgs did not dominate last gen. Actually, I'd say it was pretty balanced last gen. Shooters, rpgs and action adventure games dominated and quite a few other genres got a fair amount of exposure. This gen shooters dominated, the music genres had a brief resurgence, platformers faded a bit and rpgs and action adventure games still had a strong presence. I'd say fighting games have become a bit more prominent than they were last gen though. I imagine next gen probably be pretty similar to this gen though in terms of genre focus. I imagine more simple genres might get a bit more exposure with downloadable titles becoming more prominent.
