So, as the title says, what are your favorite and least favorite video game genres?

As for me, my favorite genre has to be RPG's and sports games, particularly basketball. I have always been a fan of RPG's ever since I started playing them, and I like sports games because I love playing these sports in real life.

My least favorite genre would go to shooter games. I never really liked them, although there are quite a few of them which are really popular. I guess I just dislike guns in general.

I like RPGs, fighting games, and shooters a great deal. I like many other genres as well, but these are my favorites for a couple reasons. RPGs are very fun if you have the right brain for them. Some people just don't get them. It's true, RPGs tend to be more involved than other games. This is why I like them. They are a sort of story that unfolds as the game goes on. Not many other genres can pull that off.

I like fighting games and shooters to deal with stress, honestly. It's fun to just kick back and let loose. It's also fun to compete against others in these types of games.

My least favorite genre is puzzle games. I do not have a lot of patience, and I hate to be rushed for anything. Most puzzle games trip both of those triggers on me. Tetris is about the only one I like.

RPGs will have to be right at the very top of the hill with fighting games very much holding things alone at the bottom.

This is a Suikoden site, everyone will like RPGs that is a given.

I like games from all the genres to be honest, maybe apart from driving, I got bored of those games quite quickly. Games like Tropico made me appreciate strategy, while other games like Metal Gear Solid helped me develop a liking for action and shooters.

  • Real Time Strategy - Warcraft, Starcraft, Dawn of War
  • Turn Based Strategy - Civilization, Alpha Centauri
  • First Person Shooter - Unreal Tournament, Call of Duty
  • Role Playing Games - Neverwinter Nights, KotOR, Suikoden
  • Action/Adventure - Metal Gear, Zelda
  • Platformers - Totally Rad, Master Blaster, Kirby
  • Puzzle - Tetris, Trog
  • Racing - Need For Speed
  • Sports - not worth mentioning
  • Other


Firstly RPG's are lucky to even beta out action/adventure in my opinion as they are far too steadfast in their game playing making them 1 or 2 playthroughs before you know everything and get tired of it. Strategy & FPS beat it out quite convincingly as all of them contain story elements to weave a plotline and reason for doing what you are doing, they also allow for far more freedom and volatility then RPG's do, as you cant very well rush through sections through knowledge and skills in RPG's, you can only rush through via tedious leveling. RPG's were saved by PC titles with their customisation of characters.

For this it would have to be a tie between RPG and Wrestling games as my favourite Genre. For my least favourite it would have to be puzzle, or any other game related to this in some way. I don't really know why i dislike puzzle games. Maybe its just because i never really got into them.

Favorite: RPG's.
Least Favorite: RPG's.

Because lately, the entire genre is totally hit or miss and I'd rather be stuck playing hours upon hours of Romance of the Three Kingdoms X (LOL GAME IS SO FAST PACED SRSLY(No, seriously. I love it. The Sangokushi is forever awesome)) than have to slug through a ton of subpar RPG's nowadays.

a few years ago, rpg's were my favorite, but lately, i don't have much time, and a time consuming rpg is the last thing i really need. but they are good during the summer months.

My favorite genres would have to be First Person and Third Person(Socom) shooters.

My least favorite happens to be rpgs. I know, you wouldn't think someone who doen't like rpgs would be here at this board. I came here as a referal from friends.

My favorite genre are RPGs and Strategy games. A close second to that would be Civilization building.

My least favorite are sports games, since i don't play any sports... Unless fencing has a VG, i don't think this would change since i take up that sport... :|
