As you walk into the local gamestop looking for something to buy sometimes you may ask yourself, “Maybe I need something new.” But as you walk through the sea of games and crying children you may notice a trend, everything is an FPS. Life goes on and you take it home wondering, “Do I really need to kill the invaders as a space marine again?” There ends your day and wondering.

Fpssource.net decided that its time to stop wondering and look at this problem with numbers and found that most games available on Xbox 360 aren’t shooters, they are sports games and action adventure games. The numbers say a lot and it shows what people are looking for when they buy a game on the platform (and the RPG number shows why the Japanese dont buy anything that says Xbox on it). Also all the games counted are coming out this month for example Bioshock is listed.

First Person Shooter 11%

Third Person Shooter 6%

Fighting 3%

Sports 26%

RPG 6%

Driving/Racing/Flight 13%

RTS/Puzzle 3%

Action/Action Adventure 26%

Family/Party 6%
