^^ No offense, but I think you're being a little 'close minded' to people who just so happen to like FPS's. Maybe people just like different things at the end of the day. You like unique and different games that your sister can play. Is there anything wrong with that? No

But to pass off any FPS as something for "StarWars/StarTrek/Matrix trillogy watching dweebs who think that good games are mearly good graphics and a gun" is very close minded.

It's like country music. I have no idea what the appeal of country music is. To me, they all sound the same. But to Country music fans, it all sounds very specific and different. To I think they are all 'country music dweebs' or think less of them for it? No. Thats just their preference. They obviously 'feel' for the genre differently than i do.

And thats a good thing. I wouldnt want a world where everyone thought the same.

Heck, I'm not even a huge FPS fan. I hate Halo, and most of the generic army WW2 games. To date though, I think of two FPSs as games I love: Half Life 2, and Resistance Fall of Man. The pacing of the action, the stories, and how the stories were presented to me were incredible. It's just my type.

Can I see why other might not like it? Sure. But they are GREAT games to me.

Not trying to start an argument, and I see what you are saying about what you like and what you dont like, I just think you are presenting yourself wrong. You cant pass of fans of a genre as 'close minded dweebs' simply because you arent a fan of that genre. It's just insulting, and could have been said a little nicer.
