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.

As for recommendations I would have to say that the following are some of the best in there feilds.

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.

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
