What's with all the first person shooters??

It's really annoying that whenever I read the summary of an upcoming shooting game, I find out that it's first person. Frontlines should've been in third person viewpoint as well as Dark Sector. I just removed these games from my wishlist 'cuz they're FPS. I'm glad that prototype isn't. I'm not really an FPS fan but I got COD4 and Halo 3 and I love them.

So is it just me or do you people think that FPS are a lot?

I think there are way too many FPS's out, but not enough decent ones. I got Bioshock for eth semi RPG element, and I love it. I'm getting COD4 next, but that'll be it FPS wise for me I think.

QUALITY, not QUANTITY.

Thankyouplease.

Third person shooters are harder to make. The developer has to take camera angle into consideration more. Tons of games have been killed by a bad camera that gets stuck. Its much easier to screw up, so most go with the tried and true FPS.

I'm tired of fps as well. It gets boring. Because you just shoot.

Yeah I agree, but there are quite a few good ones (CoD4, HL2, BioShock, etc.). Im looking forward to picking up Burnout: Paradise so I dont have a collection full of gun games.
