Game Genres

[oosacker]

Your favorite game genre is? (I assume most people will say racing though...)

Racing and shooting games. Mostly auto racing games though.

I really don't understand why I buy any other kind of game, or any other kind of racing game for that matter, as I usually play them for a day or two and then never touch them again.

I have about 30 or so games for the PS2 and I only play 2 of them. GT3 and Socom.

Why I waste so much I may never know? Even when I know full well that nothing compares to Gran Turismo, I still buy racing games.

Never rally racing though.

You forgot Simulation.

As you can tell by now, my favorite genre is Simulation. Ever since I first loaded up Flight Simulator 95 on a 486, simulation has increased to be my favorite genre. Something about flying anywhere in the world with any plane at any time intrigues me.

Of course, GT falls into the simulation category as well.

just cars for me, everyone at school always says "have you got any REAL games yet?". idiots!

What would the Sims be considered?

 

[Jugend]

Racing and platform.

I want it simple. (or easy to learn - hard to master)

RPG's....final fantasy mostly, wehn it comes to RPG's PC's and xbox blow. PS2 comes in second but the ultimate RPG's are on Playstation. Mainly final fantasy 7. I also like FPS's with halo on PC and XBOX being my number 1 pick. For racing it's GT3 and for puzzles you can't beat tetris on gameboy! I don't like fighting games because all someone has to do is cram on the controller and kick your butt.....I hate sports games but I don like tony hawk games and rarley a snowboarding game. Sometimes I'll hit a little tomb raider for some action/puzzle but overall RPG's are my fav.

Hahaha my brother hates em because he never reads the story....what a moron

Mostly racing, but also some platform for me.
Also playing SSX and SSX3, but that's for the racing too.

 

[cardude2004]

I like the tycoon games and the sims, as well as flight simulator. I guess I like action and simulation games.

 

[demon of speed]

I like a broad amount of games. I mean what genre can you place Blast Corps on the N 64?
And that was an excelent game that appealed to many gamers.

Racing and Sports games are my favs.

I've been on a third-person shooting frenzy as of late. I've recently rented both Max Payne games, Freedom Fighters, and I'm probably renting Dead to Rights tomorrow. Are there any other third-person shooters other than the Hitman series that I should check out? I heard True Crimes was absolute ****, so I'll probably stay away from that for a while.

That said, I like shooting-, racing-, sports-, action/adventure-, and puzzle-games. I love hyphens.

Roll playing games are the Natural Ice of video games.
