And now the moment you've all been waiting for!

It's been a long time getting to this point, but it's been worth it. We've without a doubt picked the finest of the finest. I'm sure we've lost a few good genres along the way...Survival/Horror lost by the skin of its teeth and fighter went down with.....um...a fight.

But we've all known this moment was coming and there can only be six. And then one.

So which will it be?

Let's put this in a bit more concrete terms: If you had to play one game for the rest of your life...which would it be? If you can answer that question, this poll is a no-brainer.

Happy Voting!

I voted RPG of course, I hope it wins. Or if it doesn't, I hope Action-Adventure wins, or at the very least that neither Shooter nor Platform win

RPG would probably win because of the internet but in real life it's probably fps currently judging by the games devs keep churning out.

"Dr. Tenma, according to you, lives are equal. That's why I live today. But you must have realised it by now...the only thing people are equal in is death"---Johann Liebert (MONSTER)

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler

I find the poll flawed, 'shooter' is not accurate enough, FPS, TPS, and On rails should all be seperated, they are completely different.

Action/Adventure is hardly specific, but I picked it anyway.
