Well this may be too big of a suggestion, but if you want more publicity and the such, you should be a little bit more "open". You should allow games such as Soldier Front, GunZ: The Duel, and WarRock because the those are some of the biggest names in the MMO-ish FPS genres.
Being secluded to only MMOFPS's, in my opinion, is too obscure for anything useful
This is something I bounce back and forth with. I have the games listed on the gamelist, and we actually get some traffic due to those listings. Problem is, we are the only pure MMOFPS site on the web. Even though the genre is tiny, and the site grows unilaterally with a slow moving genre... we are still dependable to viewers in having the information they need and are still the place folks will go when they hear about "MMOFPS" or "Massive FPS" games. Due to our site content and frequent updates we can maintain this image and also the #1 search result for this genre.
I personally think that the MMOFPS genre will be big enough one day that we would be covering more than just a handful of games. What's great about it right now is that I can build this site and manage the genre with only a few team members. As the genre grows so will the site, as will the team members.
Our site increases it's visitors by 30% every month, according to Alexa, we have increased site views 70% , passed over 400,000 sites in traffic rank, and increased our reach by 131% in the last 3 months.
It's tough weighing out what to do with what we support. If I succumb to the web to get more hits by supporting more FPS games that are non-MMO related, we lose that image as being a "Solid MMOFPS" site. If we do succumb, than we get more hits now, but lose some of our MMOFPS image when the genre starts to get large.
It's a complex situation, much similar to stock trading or other investments.
