Video game genres that will eventually die in the coming years.
author=prexus
This is a stupid point to argue.
There are not that many genres, and the majority of them have been left unchanged for decades.
» RPG
» Shooter
» Strategy
» Platformer
» Adventure
» Action
» Simulation
All that has changed are a variety of Perspectives, Settings, and Features. In addition, there has been overlap in these Genres.
But they are the only Genres. There are 7.
Now look at the releases for the remainder of 2011. Tell me there isn't at least one game coming out in every one of these Genres.
.
This makes sense.

I am simply not doing anything but explaing the large majority of EVERYONE consider it a genre. Whetehr it should or shouldn't be, we can't change all these people minds.
Are they as popular as they used to? No, I said coming years, they will fade. Just like soon we will move on from touch screen to something else. Probably virtual or something simliar.
author=GameOverGames ProductionsAIR SIMSPart of your problem is that you are coming up with this stuff off of your tastes and without any knowledge of the market. Virtual airlines are quite a popular and complex past time, though to you they probably seem boring and pointless (and I am willing to bet you have never even actually played one.) http://www.deltava.org/ for example.
Really? I can fly a plane? Oh great! So now what do I do? Keep flying the plane? How about if I add guns? What? I can't add to many weapons or else it won't just be a sim? Well, than I guess these WW2 guns on my WW2 sim plane will have to do. Wow this is boring. Damn, I suppose I'll make it an action game.

Please describe Innovation in the FPS point of view as applied to another genre.
Sorry, but FPS is considered a GENRE by pretty much EVERYONE including reviewers at official companies.
Some VX engine help.

author=kentonaauthor=RaekwonCompared to what?
As I was saying, these genres are fading, and as Prexus said, there is lack of innovation in many areas.
There has been an explosion of innovation since my days as a young lad gamer. And it seems like the developers continue to push the envelope these days.

Saber tooth tiger are extinct. You basically just said that since Tigers came from Sabers, sabers still exist. It is very simple how this works. Your looking to much into it. Cars are not extinct, cars have been the same for years, all cars have operated the same way. The tigers are different. That's why Sabers are EXTINCT.
The "sabre tooth" tiger is extinct but not all tigers are extinct
Cars have not been the same for years holy shit what crack are you smoking
I guess we don't put are feet on the gas and turn the wheel anymore. Oh wait, YES WE DO! I guess we don't use engines or have wheels on our cars. Wait, YES WE DO!

RIP Old Tony.

I already knew this. I wanted to see fi I would replace the whole thing or not. MP3s make big file size, and most modern midis sound scratchy.

True in some cases.

you can't exactly define a 'pure' any genre because genres are there to be shaped in favour of your game and audience, so they pretty much can't die out. i think you might be taking the 'evolutionary,' theory too literally.
True in some cases.
