Default Re: Do You Look Down on Genres?

Pure platformers. I played Mirror's Edge and wanted to end myself after about 10 minutes.

However, platforming combined in another genre like action/adventure or even TF2, and you have yourself a hell of a time.

To me, genres are dying. Everything is cross-pollinating and I think thats the real reason why when we play a genre title, it feels so dated and one dimensional.
