I am buying BF3. No doubt. The only modern series EA has that is any good is back!

I like the new way FPS's have been going, I love Bulletstorm, although I don't own it, and Killzone 3 improves on the great old Killzone formula in many ways.

The thing I miss most about the Playstation: the PS exclusives. Sony didn't just churn 'em out, they thought about them and worked on them... sigh.
Today it's literally impossible to make an FPS without borrowing at least 1 idea from somebody. If I made a game where the campaign was to stop aliens from invading Earth, then I can think of several things I would be copying:

1. Aliens- would be borrowed from Halo
2. FPS- would be borrowed from Doom
3. Game- would be borrowed from Pong

That's 3 things that can be considered being copied.
