I'm a shooter fan, I prefer TPS games, but there aren't too many out there...So I play FPS alot.

After FPS comes Action RPGs.

Love some FPS :D

FPS, gotta love the thrill of hunting people down and KILLING THEM

Right now I'm on a third person action/stealth kick. However, across the years RPGs/tactics games have been my favorite. But I think the TPA/S is taking over.

RPGs usually keep my interest the longest so I'll go with them.

First Person Shooters

War

I'm a huge fan of fps'... or mmo's.

Fps!!

RPG!!!

RPG

adventure gammeeesss

On a PC definitely RTS's

My favorite genre is the RPG.

MADDEN - its in its own genre...

I'd have to say stealth action like Splinter Cell, Batman Arkham Asylum, and Chronicles of Riddick: Butcher Bay and Dark Athena.

I would have to say FPS and RPG coming in a close second

Holy hell, that's a lot of games! Great contest, Joystiq! As for my favorite gaming genre... I've played games my whole life and I've never gotten bored of action/adventure games. Started as 2D platformers with lame stories, but thanks to progressing technology, we get wonders like Uncharted 2. Huzzah for technology!

Nothing quite like a solid rpg

Always down for a good platformer

I love all games, 'cept....

Head games, thats all I get from you
Head games, and I cant take it anymore
Head games, dont wanna play the...
Head games

my favorite genre is definitely JRPGs, though there are only a few genres I actively avoid.

By your avatar, Its OBVIOUS you'd prefer JPRGS, weaboo. : )

Favorite genre for me is probably rpg.

RTS. Fast paced (aka DoW II) or massive in scale (aka Sins)

I love all genres but there is one game that has a special place in my heart so I would have to go with action-adventur.

Platforming,because I'm old school

Platformers, I grew up with them and they will always be my favorite.

Western RPGs

Adventure games

puzzle games!

Adventure. What I grew up with.

Western RPGs for me, with adventure a close second.

RPG's of course =)

Action adventure w/ puzzles mixed in to add some variety.

On the PC, I'd have to say my biggest time-sink is the RTS. (Used to play a lot of FPSes in the day, but the hardware requirements have long since outstripped my ability to upgrade my PC to keep up.)
