gaming What's your favorite gaming genre?

[Omega Centauri 317]

I enjoy pretty much every genre of videogame, but if I had to pick a favorite, I guess it'd be RPGs

[Thunderlane 550]

Football or FPS

Whatever I feel like playing

[Azure Envy 1,092]

If I had more time, I would be playing more RPGs, mainly JRPG with some Western-styled titles like Skyrim, Fallout and Mass Effect (more actiony, but yeah)

 

Nowadays, it's mainly FPS or platformers (currently Freedom Planet, my avatar!)

 

If they made them anymore, I love love love side scrolling beat em ups like Final Fight, Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Metal Slug, etc.

I like RPGs of all kinds.  I'm not sure what genre Assassin's Creed falls into though.

[ShadowPirateX 600]

Mostly action and action-adventure games. Hack 'n' Slash and shooters, for example.

[rarity1 461]

RPG games like Skyrim and any other games with lots of gratuitous blood and gore.

[Radiance64 7,053]

RPGs are the best, most of my favorite series are RPGs of all kinds of types.

Action/adventure and fighting games rock too.

[Ianpiersonjdavis 512]

Survival-Horror games that are actually scary.

 

But, it seems like kind of a niche genre...

[Panne 1,342]

I'll play almost anything. But I'm best at open world like Minecraft, adventure games like Zelda, rpg's like Skyrim and games like F-Zero (it technically is racing, but it feels different than a normal racing game)

[A goat 323]

Tough question. I'd say rpgs, open-world games, fps, action games, little bit of stealth games, and adventure games.

[Shadowking58 1,137]

Hey, Niko, it's Roman.

[_Kurtis 636]

FPS, platformer, and adventure are the ones I can quickly think of off the top of my head.

[Live Forever 316]

I always enjoy visual novels and puzzle games.

[Jennabun 1,579]

I tend to fall in love most deeply with JRPGs. But I'm pretty much down with any good RPG.

[(MARVEL) Blue Blood 991]

I adore my platformers. Especially Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man. <3

[Jackleberry 1,921]

As bad as I usually am at these sorts of things, real-time and turn-based strategy games are pretty cool in my book.

 

Though I've only just started getting into them, I've also been really enjoying visual novels as of late

Do you have a PSP or Vita? I would recommend Wild Arms XF for SRPGs.

 

It's relatively easy, doesn't do any of the permanent death stuff that Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics does so it'll ease you into the genre while still having lots of mechanics that will teach you how to play the genre well.

[PokeBolter 208]

The games where it's a cross between Action and RPG however racing games can also be fun like Mario Kart. Best video games are Pokemon games.

[Redeye 399]

By "types of games" I mean stuff like FPS, RPG, etc. Choose your favorite, but you can only choose one.
 

My favorite is RPG. I love story, character, etc. RPGs have probably the most interesting stories known the mankind, especially if you look towards Japan for a while. Japan's knack for making RPGs is huge and when they do make one, they're most likely awesome. Such examples would be the Tales of Series, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Eternal Sonata, Phantasy Star, Dragon Quest, etc.

 

What's your favorite game type?

[Sugar Pea 2,682]

Platformers and Beat em ups!

Those two are really fun, and I especially love beat em ups when they are free style melee. I am very good at melee combat. :3

[Sir Xarthas VI 470]

Sorry but I can't pick just one.
These are the ones I like the most:
MMORPG (WoW)
MOBA (Smite)
FPS (L4D2, CoD, BF)
Sandbox (Minecraft)
Simulator (Flight Simulators)

Can't get enough of games

[TheJLeeTeam 914]

Though Pokémon is my favorite game series, I'm not entirely open in the RPG genre. Although I do play a few other RPG's such as Earthbound and Dragon Quest.

 

I'd say the only genre I'm wide-eyed about is the Business Simulation genre. Games such as Rollercoaster Tycoon, Zoo Tycoon, and Sim City. I just want to play as many games in that genre as I can unlike other genres where I only care to play a few games from them. I don't know why it's the only genre I'm really open about but Business Simulation games really stick out to me.

[Sir Xarthas VI 470]

 

 

Earthbound

OMG, do you still have Earthbound? I just loved that game when I last played it. I sold it for like $360 like a few months ago... I should've kept it though :/

I have the Virtual Console version on the Wii U. I don't have the actual Snes game.

Awww. I would've bought it off you... I really want that game back... And I don't really wanna get a Wii U...
