Rhythm

Why? Because there is a limitless replay value and you can be extremely original with its controls (ie: DDR, Guitar hero, Gitaroo Man). And in my opinion the genre includes some of the hardest games ever made, I've been working on level 2 of Gitaroo Man for 3 years now! :GM6:

The question is what you favourite game genre is. You can't have two favourites.

That's why you can only choose one. If you chose more than one, then you're just naming the genres you like, not your favourite.

I chose Other, because I simply can't decide :rolleyes:

Oh btw, Horror wasn't included, I know your not allowed to post this, but Horror is a common genre and should be included.

What would Star Fox 64 count as? It doesn't seem like a FPS...

Having just deposited vote 666, I feel a little wierd...

Some games fit into more than one category. Most of my favorite games are both TBS and RPG-like (Fire Emblem, FFT, etc) for example. But I voted RPG because there are more good RPGs out there than TBS. Once you play through Fire Emblem and FFT(A) and maybe Advance Wars there's really not much left.

I don't see whypeople love FPSs so much. I find the controls to be often clunky and non-intuitive and the gameplay to barely differ between most games in the genre. I've only played a few shooters that break in any way from the "run, shoot, run, shoot" formula.

Definately platform, because some of my favourite games are platforms. Also first person shooter, because of Doom.

My passion is Space Simulation games; all the Wing Commander games were at the top!

WC Privateer was the one game that changed my life forever! (It is now my goal in life to try and recreate the action and open endness of that game! )
