Well, it doesn't have to be the first of its kind, GTA, Halo, WoW, Guitar Hero, all have their roots in other genres. Its what they did for the industry as a whole, either bringing the genre to a whole new audience, introducing new gameplay elements that continue to be copied or moving some form of the game forward.
