Platformers, run 'n guns, air-dash fighters and shoot 'em ups with the occasional lite RPG or strategy in the rare instance I get tired of the usual stuff.

I'm really hoping with the next Gen, there is another genre that gets a popularity push.

It just seems that a lot of games nowadays are FPS. I'm so burned out on FPS.

[RyaNtheSlayA]

You know, I have a hard time picking. I think about it a good amount actually. It really just depends on the time of year and what I ate that morning. Over the last year or so, I have been gravitating much more towards RPGs than I ever used to. However, FPS still remains the genre I sink the most time into, and is probably my favorite.

So, FPS, Third Person Action/Adventure, and RPGs would probably be my choice if you asked me today.

[Exhuminator]

I enjoy games with a narrative that are plot driven, it gives meaningful impetus to the interactions on screen I'm inducing. In other words, I like to feel like there's a "point" to what I'm doing in a video game.

Therefore my top 3 favorite genres are:

RPG
Adventure
Action Adventure

[Gunstar Green]

I'm more of a gameplay guy when it comes to games with a few exceptions, especially with the last choice on this list, but I certainly appreciate a good story too.

2D platformers
Run 'n guns
Beat 'em ups
Space and mech sims
2D tournament fighters
Traditional shmups
On-rails shooters (Star Fox, Omega Boost, Panzer Dragoon, etc.)
Action adventure (especially of the Metroidvania sort)
Text based/point and click adventure

I think that covers it.

Well if you can guess guess by my username, I'm a Harvest Moon fanatic. I love those happy cows. I'm also a huge fan of survival horror.

Are you from California?

(People from outside California probably have no clue what that is referring to)

[Erik_Twice]

I must admit I'm a sucker for both economical and political games. Mix in some hidden information and I'm all yours.

[BoringSupreez]

FPS and 3D platformers are my absolute favorites, though I'm also a big fan of action/adventure games. I'll play just about anything as long as it's good (except sports), I don't restrict myself to only my favored genres.
