What the honest fuck are you on about?
I don’t recall Dead space, gears of war, dead planet, rainbow six Vegas and Vegas 2, Halo 2 or 3 (to name a few) being “jingoistic Brown shooters”.
Are you really under the impression that 2000s gaming was all extremely politically incorrect?
Ah yes the jingoistic shooter, minecraft. No, wait, Portal 2. No… Skyrim? Nope. Batman Arkham Asylum? Still not it. Dark Souls? Wait, that’s not a shooter. Bioshock? Not jingoistic. Fez? Journey? Braid? Starcraft 2? Assassin’s creed? Right, you meant GTA 4 and red dead redemption, right?
The point I’m making is that I know there was certain style of gaming popularized by COD, but it wasn’t the entire generation. The X1/PS4 generation is also filled with bloated formulaic open world games (popularized by AC2, FC3 and Skyrim, all 360 era games BTW) but it doesn’t mean the entire last gen sucked. Just because you played “shit” games during the 360/PS3 era doesn’t mean the entire era is trash. It’s your own poor decisions that made it trash, for you.
