    Favorite - Platformers, shooters, FPS, fighters, action RPG's and brawlers to name a few.
    Least Favorite/Dislike - RTS, RPG and Sports

    I just never could get into RTS' and RPG's. Outside of Lunar 1&2, Earthbound and Parasite Eve I've never been able to sit and finish an RPG. As for RTS', I just suck horribly at them.

    Favourite: Adventure, Survival Horror, Turn Based RPGs (While I don't hate Action-RPGs, I just don't like them anywhere near as much) and Platformers.

    Least Favorite: I don't really hate any specific Genre bu I suck at sims and RTS'.

    Exactly. Games like Fighters Megamix for instance have managed to sway my generally aversive attitude to fighters.

    Most favorite: platformers, action RPG, action adventure
    Least favorite: digital novel, dating sims, life sims, rhythm/instrument

    For the latter, I'm thinking more like Guitar Hero and less like Bit.Trip Runner, which I do enjoy.

    Favorite: arcade games, RPGs, football, survival horror, light gun games, 1p FPSs, turn-based strategy.
    Least Favorite: platformers, multiplayer FPSs, non-football sports games, arcade games you can't do well at without a million quarters, RTSs.

    These days I like games I can have a fun and complete experience with in 5 to 10 minutes. I just don't have a lot of time for gaming, so most of my time is spent w/ 8-bit games.

    If you can't do it with 8 bits, you don't need to do it!

    I also like third-person 3D action games (Maximo, God of War, the new Splatterhouse, etc.).
