(I did NOT buy the latest MK game, that should tell you how bad it's getting.)  But getting back on topic, you'll see a re-occuring theme in the responses to this thread, namely fps are sucking.  There was a time when I couldn't get enough. I LOVED doom and I LOVED the early 3d fps like quake and unreal tournament.  But since then it's just been more of the same and unfortunately some consumers don't demand innovation like we do so they keep thowing 3 dozen fps's out there a week because joe frat boy or skippy the 14 year old boy is still buying them.

Its pretty funny how you say FPS games don't innovate yet Mortal Kombat is one of your favorite games.  If you honestly feel there is no innovation in FPS games, then I recommend you go pick up a copy of Half-Life 2 and compare it to quake or UT, you may notice a few differences.

I like Gears of War and I don't really care who doesn't.  If you don't like these games, don't play them, but I've got a whole friends list of people I enjoy playing with every night on XBOX Live and I'm 35 with a wife and two kids.

Hey, I'm an old guy too(33 years old) and married with 1 kid.  PM your gamertag or I'll PM you mine so we can play GEARS.  Have you tried Rainbow 6 Vegas?  It plays very similar to Gears.

Games are better today, by far, than they have ever been before.  Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is better than 99% of every game that ever came before it, and 100% of any game that came more than 10 years before it.  Nearly the same goes for Resident Evil 4, Super Mario 64, practically ever Zelda game ever released . . .

The issue here is that games evolve and people don't.  I work with people who HATE computers.  They have no use for them.  It pisses them off that their superiors expect them to make use of them and all the things like internet and email that go along with them.  Of course, these people are old 100% of the time, and the problem isn't that computers are useless, it's that these people are beyond the point in their lives when they want to learn new things.  Of course, this point doesn't just hit you one day like a ton of bricks.  It creeps up on you as you age.  You can't put a finger on the day when new things lost their appeal.

But it is happening to all of you who are complaining about the state of modern gaming.
