My brain memory modules are pretty rusty...let me try to recall some titles...

Beat'em'up: Karateka (ZX Spectrum)

Fighting: The Way of the Exploding Fist (ZX Spectrum)

Platform: Donkey Kong (Arcade)

FPS: Wolfenstein 3D (PC) (well, Battlezone (Arcade) actually, or Tau Ceti (ZX Spectrum), but I think those are more arcade sims than FPS)

TPS: Cabal (C64)

Sport: some soccer game on ZX Spectrum (can't remember which one)

Stealth: not sure what I played first, Beyond Castle Wolfenstein (C64), Infitrator (ZX Spectrum) or Saboteur (ZX Spectrum)

Survival: Project Firestart (C64)

Action-Adventure (back then known as arcade-adventure): Knight Lore (ZX Spectrum)

Role-playing: Dungeon Master (Amiga)

Sandbox: Elite (ZX Spectrum) (or Miami Vice (C64), really hard (and kinda bad) game which I always saw as one of precursors to GTA)

Strategy: Blitzkrieg (C64)

Racing: Pole Position (Arcade)

Adventure: The Hobbit (C64)

Shoot'em'up: Scramble (Arcade)
