Believe it all you want; that doesn't make it so. Case in point--Nintendo. People don't 'get N' because they're expecting a wide variety of gaming styles (and if they do, they deserve to get slapped around with a dead fish).

Otherwise, Call of Duty 9 will be going toe to toe against Battlefield 3042, Metal of Honor 12, Halo 7, and three baker's dozen more FPSes for supremacy, and that's too much of a good thing. (Not that those are knocks against any of those genres mind; I just think the market is a wee bit oversaturated with FPSes at the moment.)
Can't say I've noticed. Anyway, the whole 'too much of a good thing' idea is sort of alien to my worldview as a gamer (remember, you're talking to the original 'Dynasty Warriors' fanatic, here).
