There aren't that much good racing games (other than GT and Forza), but you make a good point. The market is being flooded with the same FPS/TPS games and sequel after sequel. Games are getting more bland and dumbed down and too focused on the action, Mass Effect 2 being one of the best examples of this year of a game that sacrificed plot and depth for 'moar gunz'.Originally Posted by Levian
As far as I'm concerned there's already an overflow on the market besides shovelware, in the form of an endless pit of FPS, Racing and Sports games. Adventure Gaming has taken a serious hit and it's a damned shame.
As for a possible shovelware overflow, I think natural selection will take care of that since there's a whole bunch of successful established franchises out there that will continue to crank out sequels without motion control, people would rather buy that than shovelware.
While they're selling like crazy atm, I think the xbox kids who buy all these games (and who are probably the biggest cause behind this development) are gonna have enough of them and then the market will come crashing down. And maybe then the PC will shine again as a gaming platform because it's really been going downhill since this last generation of consoles.
