With so many First Person Shooter titles available to console owners today, what differentiates them and what do the developers need to do to keep us interested?
With these hidden gems to add to your backlog, it’s time to give some bangers the shine they deserve.
Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.

This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
The Nerd Stash: “The PS3 marked a turning point in the industry, and among the sea of popular titles came the rare games that are worth more now than ever.”
I don’t collect games for their value I collect games I enjoyed playing. Many games I own are worth a lot of money but they must be games I want to play for me to purposely collect them. Most of this list isn’t games I would enjoy. I may have some of these games because I bought my friends PS2/3 Collection years ago and I never actually looked what was in it. It was a couple hundred games though still sitting in a box and I’m sure there are some good valuable games. I should go sift through it sometime.
I tend to agree for the most part rarity is linked to price
It's unusual that a rare game was popular with a few notable exceptions. Games released at the tail end of a consoles lifecycle which became popular years or decades later like little Samson on the NES or earthbound on SNES.
Or games that were banned after release in certain regions
Looking at this list there's nothing I'd be trying to collect either most of these games were fairly unpopular and bashed on their release leading to the scarcity seen now.
Especially NBA elite which I remember actually watching the news about how it got cancelled but had already shipped to retail it was so bad .
Was unaware that Verdict Day was rare, glad I still own my copy. Game is very good.
She forgot to mention Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Wizard's Edition with Ninostarter bonuses. This is the second or third most expensive PS3 game, and I own a sealed copy.

What the writer means with "changing" I take as variety.
I have heard people say "its not a true FPS" and I don't understand that. For me you have a First Person Perspective and you have a gun, that makes it a FPS in its most basic form.
Add some variety to the game play, open worlds, decisions, alternate routes etc and you have something slightly different. And this is what I think the Genre needs so that we are not presented with the same old stuff month in month out just with a different skin.
I am not quite saying RPG but something inbetween is my ideal.
Then there is what Splash Damage are doing with Brink - this game is blending single and multi-player into one offering. Challenging and genre defining?
fps are the most stale and unoriginal genre going
Whatever happened to the adventure/platform genre which was so awesome and plentiful back in the PSX days?
