I hate the term "Boomer Shooter"

There's been a big revival of that genre over the last 10 years or so and I think Boomer Shooter was adopted as a way to differentiate it from your standard FPS. Turbo Overkill is very different from Borderlands which is very different from COD. You'll need a way to communicate that difference if you want fans to buy your game.
That's cool. Always neat to see things come back but with the modern understanding of game theory.
