A crappy genre of games popularized by American gamerz. These games existed in the form of classic 3D psuedo shooters like Castle Wolfenstien 3D and Doom. The genre turned into a pile of shit after it got bombared by World War II shooters and of course the ever popular Call of Duty.

Halo recieves honorable mentions

Shooters are the only reason the Xbox 360 sells well in the U.S.
