Walk yourself over to www.nintendo.com and look what genre it's listed as... yes... Adventure... it's an Adventure game so no matter what you call the genre it's an Adventure... and the game is in first person... is it not?

That's where the name FPA came into play... it's NOT a FPS... it's an Adventure game (www.nintendo.com) that is in first person.

so check for yourself, then know your role

I thought i mentioned this in like the first part of this argument. I said they were calling it something differnt to get people OFF THIER BACKS. cuz people were complaining.

They're making the game, they could call it a freaking sports game if they want. If metroid had no guns, and he WASNT walking around not trying to hunt down enemys id see your point. thing is the thing that has ALWAYS classified a FPS, were 2 thigns. first person. and shooter. i mean its in the name. im not arguing what its being named by nintendo. your dead on there, always have been, I'm arguing whether its right to call it that. and from what i seen its not. I see an adventure in Halo, i see an adventure in many other FPS, doesnt mean they're not FPS.


And to be honest, i COULD live with it being called adventure, (still wouldnt think its correct) but i dont like FPA, making a new catagory or name for the style when the style seems to be nothing we havnt seen before. it may have orriginal cocepts. may be a kick ass game. who knows.
