Mine would be Other, but only because I play far too many games to care which genre they are. |

![]() Well I chose Action, I'm the first, only because of the games that were listed there. The only action games I care for are FPS and since Doom and Half-Life were listed there I assumed it involved FPS and since I'd rather play an FPS game over an adventure I chose it.

![]() Adventure without a doubt.
Almost all of the most memorable characters, stories and humour, come from adventure games. Aah - to only feel again what I felt after completing the likes of Broken Sword, Grim Fandango, Zork Grand Inquisitor, The Longest Journey and Gabriel Knight. When I completed these games, it felt like someone had just died for me - I was empty inside. No other games touch me like adventures. I wanted to cry after completing The Longest Journey - I couldn't believe it was the end. Adventures are my escape from life's misery. Oh where are the adventures now .... |

![]() Hmmm. My favorite genre is by far the eastern-style RPG. I can't stand western-style PC RPGs, but I really love my japanese-style console RPGs (Seiken Densetsu games, Final Fantasy games, Xenogears, etc). That probably comes from my being primarily a console gamer for all my life. The only PC games that I play are adventures, which I also love.
There's only one other genre that could be considered one of my favorites, and only because it contains one of my favorite games. That genre would be the questionably named "action/adventure". They do seem somewhat like adventure games, in the exploration and depth of story, but they have a very different feel to them. Such games would be those like Beyond Good and Evil, Primal, and Ico. |
