Tribes wasnt original either. and IMO, battlefield does much more on its own then tribes did. battlefield did indeed take things from tribes, but tribes took things from other games, and newer tribes games borrow even more.

aside from original game elemets, idea's for this and that. All FPS games are a rip off of the first FPS game. They all take the same idea and add thier own twists. nothing can be done about that.

As for UT series, 2k3 wasnt much a sequal and was dissapointing, but 2k4 is very much better then the original. and had some very good creative idea's put into it. the whole Onslaught idea in 2k4 will have many games taking that idea for years to come. (only certain attack points open at a certain time.)

But ya, its very easy to go around each FPS game and point out what they took from another, and another. but most add thier own ways to make the taken idea's thier own in a way.
