Whats your favorite genre? My happens to be first person shooters. I just love the idea of playing on teams to kill each other. Seems so much fun! It's like being in the military without any risks. My old favorite genre was just any action games. :ph34r:

Rpgs definatly..I love setting out on a quest thjat takes a long time to finish. The Idea of travelling to a different universe like in FF7 is awesome. I also like Tactics Rpg. My second fav genre is fighting games cuz they require skill, and then action games. I only hate sprots games. They are extremely lame. You say you like shooters whats your fav? And fav company who makes them?

I like battle realms, ceasar, zeus and red alert! I don't know what specific genre they belong in but I like building infrastructures and training an army then later attacking my opponent.

I would have to say that now my favorite genre is First Person Shooters. When I first started playing computer gamies I played a lot of Real Time Strategy, but eventually I started playing a little Unreal Tournement. Now I play Wolfenstien ET. Believe it or not I've never even played Counter Strike. I guess I really should.

I really can't seem to get interested in MMORPG. I just don't have to time to justify paying monthly for a game. I don't have the time to devote to a MMORPG to make it worth while.

The genre is RTS(real time strategy) I like those also. Its sometimes hard to classify games into genres but Ive played enough that im now l337 and I understand most.Oh I forgot a genre..lol...I like survival horror as a tie with fighting games..hehe...Infact I love Silent Hill, Clock Tower, Resident Evil, and Fatal Frame.

I like RPG first. (MMORPG, RTS, turn based, doesn't matter) Next is action/platforming games. Ratchet and Clank, Sonic Adventure 2 : Battle. And I hate sport games, they just aren't fun.

My favorite genres is mmorpg's. I've made tons of friends playing these games and it's alot of fun to work together and help eachother out. Another reason I like MMORPG's is that I like the concept of being able to build up a character, unlike other games you have something to show for all the time spent playing.

Seeing as how I play video game way too much, it's kinda hard to pick just one favorite genres. I guess the majority of games I play would fall into the FPS area. Definatly love the Halo and Halo 2, as well as the Rainbow 6 and Splinter Cell series. RPGs are also a good time.....just got done with Indigo Prophecy.....what a mindtrip that was! Would definatly recomend that game to any RPG fan!!

I totally agree with thse people who hate sports games. I think they are lame...I dont find fun in play videogames to play sports, I can just go out in the street and do that. BUt I like RPGs and shooters and all other games cuz its sumthing you could never do in freal life. I like playing games on distant planets and do things I could never do. How many times can you say you've summoned a GF or shot someone with a gunblade? OK now how many times have you played football. See its not much fun comparitaively.

When I was 13-15 my favorite genre was Action... DooM , Heretic , Quake... Oh such games! But then I started to play RPG games such as Diablo , Baldurs Gate & etc... on 16 My friends buy me a present Final Fantasy 7,8,9 and after these games I can not play in anything else...
But now I love MMORPG games such as Ragnarok , World of Warcraft , Lineage.
I also cann't say that I hate sports games... For example Basketball(NBA 2005) is a very good game, very good graphics and I really enjoy it.
The same I can say about horror games such as Resident Evil & Silent Hill(I think that these games are the kings of horror genre).

My favorite genre is RTS. I also like FPS games (mainly stuff like Battlefield 2).

I'm quite good at making maps for WarCraft III (as the World Editor is quite a powerful too if one uses it correctly). WCIII eats up most of my computer time b/c of my maps and stuff, but I barely play the normal game. I probably must say that Act of War: Direct Action has the best multiplayer (non-modded). It's probably one of, if not the, most underrated game ever created. It's quite sad that a game like C&C Generals gets far more attention than AoW, b/c AoW is infinitely better. Dawn of War comes in with a close second. Even with the Imperial Guard, I must say that the Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines remain my favorite two races.

Have you guys heard about Company of Heroes yet? That game will single-handedly revolutionize RTS games (possibly even games from other genres). The AI is going to be extremely advanced, not to mention the graphics look sweet. If you have no idea what it is, go to ign and look it up, it's worth your time to.

hm...
for me the best genre out there is RTS. nothing beats warcraft 3, starcraft or dune 2 :b
but i cant say that i am playing one genre all the time. there is time for rpq, action, rts or just simple race games.

I like RPG, adventure games and fighting games =DDD
mostly RPG such as harvest moon. I like puzzle games too, and games like mario party because you don't have to fight scary monsters 0_o or go through hard stages and keep on dying. Then give up. In harvest moon, that rarely happens XD
as long as the game has a cool plot then I'm satisfied XD and as long as i have the perfect guide...then i'll be cool xD
