What makes each of these genres listed great? What do you like in them? What's important?
If you can please, list things you like and don't like about each genre you care about, what's essential, what certain things bother you about them, and anything else you think is relevant for that genre.
- Shooters -- This includes first person, third person, tactical, and anything else you might consider any kind of a shooter.
- Action/Adventure -- Should be self explanatory here. It's alright if genres bleed into each other
- WRPG -- Western RPG's like Mass Effect, Fallout 3, ect.
- JRPG -- You're Final Fantasies and whatnot
- Racing -- Includes everything from Burnout to Mario Kart
- Sports -- Everything from Madden to Punch-Out!!
- Platformers -- Your Marios and Tomb Raiders
- Casual -- This includes your mini games compilations like Boom Blox and typical party games like Rayman Raving Rabbids. This can also include many Live and PSN games. Just really quick games that you can play for 5 minutes or with a large group of people.
- Fighting -- Super Smash Bros to Street Fighter
- RTS -- might as well include this
I'm sure there are other genres and if you can think of them, list them and list what you like about them please! Just be warned, I have no intentions of splitting some genres further down like RPGs and Shooters.
If you have a game you even really like, tell me what of the above genres it fits into and what makes you like it so much.
Thanks for the help!
