Not my point. COD is fine if that's what you want to play, but there's room for far more genres to be represented in this enormous industry. Cubed seems to think because they've fallen out of fashion they're no longer "good", which I disagree with entirely. SM64 and the original Banjo-Kazooie both stand up as incredible games. People said the same of 2D platformers before Nintendo blew the scene up with NSMB in 06 and now there are a f*cking billion platformers of all shapes and sizes across all platforms.

It depends, just like any other genre. I personally love games like SM64 and the original BK and there simply aren't enough of them. Rare sort of took it to an extreme in Banjo-Tooie, which straddles the line between between being good and absolutely ridiculous, then they singlehandedly buried the entire genre with bloat in DK64, which is a disastrous mess of a game. Naughty Dog made some decent attempts with Jak, but they too destroyed what they made with awful sequels. There's room for more and also room for improvement.
