I don't think i need to tell any of you about the rash of sub par third person cover based shooters flooding the gaming market right now. It seems like every month there is a new gears of war clone announced for release and with so many titles trying to capitalize on this trend, it's becoming less and less of a surprise when these games end up being terrible.
