It's a shame since the FPS genre really lends itself to deliberate and engrossing level design. It's also a shame that nearly all Sony 1st party developers seem intent on making 3rd person action games, with little else seemingly on the horizon. I hope we see some more variety moving forward before Sony becomes another Ubisoft where everything seems based on the same template. We're definitely not there yet but with Sony's current leadership I could see it headed that way.

What I wouldn't give for a new Resistance.

Personally I much prefer 3rd person over 1st person. Just like with racing games where I'd much rather see my car than race in a cockpit, in action, adventure, and RPG's I'd much rather see my character when I control them.
