I prob can't be bothered flaming anyone, but I'll say some genre stuff.
Although Wikipedia is an extremely good free encyclopedia, I think things such as genres etc are always shifting and the definitions are arbitrary. So Wikipedia is smart and says sneak-em-ups are not a genre, but maybe in 10 years sneaking games will be more common than shooting games somehow and another encyclopedia will list different genres. There's no Central Bureau of Genre naming who has a government granted right to define them or anything, although certain definitions might make more sense than others.
Incidentally, where should encyclopedias get game genre names from if not magazines? They're not supposed to just make stuff up.
