There was a time when the humble first-person shooter was so uncommon that gamers called them “Doom clones”. It’s hard to imagine such a world today; the first-person shooter isn’t quite the default mode for a game, but it’s still one of the most popular genres you’ll encounter in the gaming world. If you’ve got a PS4 – or if you’re lucky enough to have a PS5 and can take advantage of backwards compatibility – then you’re in for a treat, because Sony’s ecosystem is the best place to play the greatest FPS games around.

As far as sports games are concerned, designers found it very difficult to reimagine the high-octane world…

The console wars have notoriously been brutal throughout history. Ever since “Genesis does what Nintendon’t”, competing console companies have worked hard to ensure that they’re staying on top of their rivals.

Even though Sony and Microsoft have been competing for many years (despite Microsoft’s recent moves away from direct competition), that same sense of eternal battle doesn’t necessarily apply…
