Adventure, for this poll.

But of course, card games were omitted. Bridge beats them all.

Mine is RTS/FPS games such as Giants and Sacrifice, an RPG/RTS/FPS game would be AWESOME!

Hm, tough one. My favorite genres are shooters, adventures and RTSes, but after opening the drawer and looking at my 200+ games it's obvious - shooters. So I checked the FPS box.

Shooters. I have a real soft spot for space sims but I didn't choose that because I hate any other type of sim .

Where does the NHL-game series fall into? Sports obviously, but would one call it action in this thread? Ofcourse, you could always see it as a shooter, too..

Anyways, genre-wise I'd have to go with sports as in NHL, NBA, FIFA and Virtual Pool. These guys kick some serious *** (FIFA literally kick, as other more or less slap or hit or bounce and stuff).

-- Was it not okay to say ***? I forget. If it isn't okay, I apologize a second time --

-- BTW, if it isn't okay, how can you make a difference if someone's referring to an ass, as in equi? You could always talk about those smaller, not-so-princely-pony-like-creature-thingys but that would hardly be reasonable for most of the time... Hmmm... --

-- Last note: I really am sorry to have to write the a-word three times already. If it really isn't okay I really am sorry for posting it thrice. It isn't supposed to be a juvenile joke in any respect. --

Action/FPS.

You will always find me waving a big sword (RPG), if not toting rocket launcher (FPS) with boodthirsty grin on my face.

Not often playing games from other genre, except if it's really "hot" games like WC3 (RTS), or genre bending title like Deus Ex, etc.
