I think you mean genres there - but that's OK, I got what you were talking about.

2-D arcade classic-style stuff will always be my favorite, bar none. The simpler, the better. Anyone can pick it up, learn it on the spot, and play it. To me, that's how it should be. The Bushnell Axiom - "easy to learn, hard to master" - seems to have vanished in the past 10-14 years.

2. Arcade
3. Adventure
4. Adult Gambling Games made by Chinese pirates @_@

I hate:
