What's that got to do with anything being discussed here? Anyway, I think it's because a lot of FPS games are dumbed down for consoles, which is why they are less enjoyable for the PC.
i think its more because the FPS genre has been oversaturized the past decade. while some games do get simplified menu systems and such for consoles, saying that a game like Q2 or PerfectDark is more complex than FPSs of late is nonsense.
Well, I do think consoles are at least somewhat to blame - I believe console owners are more apt to embrace and celebrate mediocrity. Look at Halo for instance, the holy grail of FPS's on consoles, it's really just a good definition of run-of-the-mill-ordinary.
Granted Halo isn't the most amazing game ever these days, but you would have to be a complete twat to not think that when the first game launched it kicked EVERY first person dev in the balls when it came to a complete package. Plus, it made it all the more better being on a console, too.

The first one was a break through, correct; but it's also a last generation game and doesn't apply to the crop of current generation FPS's I was complaining about. Sorry, I should have been more clear, I was referring mostly to 3 and ODST whilst looking at them from only a single player stand point.

You have an example of this happening? And don't say search for it. I'm not digging through all your incoherent blathering to look for an example of you proving everyone wrong.
