>>Truly inovative games will always sell well. Look at max payne. I was really pissed that it was not first person view, but after getting around the feel, the game was damn near perfect.
Tell that to the developers who go out and try to make anything other than yet another FPS or RTS and go bankrupt because they either sell poorly, or the publisher wants them to revamp the game to become more of the same.
Tell that to Bungie who had to rape the original idea of what Halo was intended to be to fit Microsoft's plans and have it be yet another FPS game.
Tell that to any developer that has to fall back onto making more of the same in order to try and bankroll something truly original, just to have it die miserably because damn it, it's not another version of WarCraft/C&C/Quake/whatever.
And then you bring up Counterstrike which is just a variation on more of the same (HalfLife meets rainbow six). Way to bury your own argument there.
