That's debatable. Do mere skill and equipment upgrades make a game an RPG?

The game is in first person view, and you shoot things.

But those games have more RPG elements in them AND they actually have more heritage on that field. If you check the games' Wiki pages you can see that Fallout is described as an "action RPG" while FarCry is marked as an "FPS". If a game that allowed leveling up was an RPG by default that would then make almost all modern games RPGs.
