In an earlier article, Game Nook discussed where the FPS genre
stood today, however its future has yet to be given the same attention. Call of
Duty 4 is arguably the most influential FPS of this generation because of its
integration of RPG elements and fast, accessible gameplay. Countless studios
have incorporated infinity ward's formula to the point where it has become standard
across the genre. However, very little innovation has occurred since Modern
Warfare launched in 2007, until only recently. Perhaps in response to a stagnating
market, some developers are iterating and morphing CoD's formula, into -what I
think- is the next big revolution in the genre.
