You sound like me in that I only used to use Playstation consoles for Fighting games. The only PS2 game I had which was not a fighting game was Maximo.

 

Nowadays the most popular games are shooters (first or third person), and open world games.

Creating games has become so expensive that less games are created per year, and the developers have to take less risks with creativity to make sure the game will be successful. And also, because of the great power of the consoles the temptation of making like a movie exists.

What kinds of games do you like? I pretty much only play platformers, fighting games, turn based strategy and turn based rpgs.


I will play anything as long as it's not a sports game, or FPS.  I like fighting games most of all, though.  I don't only use playstation consoles for figting games, I only use playstation consoles period.  I remember playing BlazBlue Calamity Trigger years ago on 360....  So much unintentional jumping and failure to do moves, combos, etc.  Same thing with MK9 and Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown.  Fighting games just aren't playable on 360, unless you have an arcade stick, which I don't use anyway.

I have enough trouble doing hypers in Marvel Vs. Capcom on PS3, that game has never been forgiving with controls.  At least it's easier in MvC2.  I cannot imagine how difficult it would be to pull of certain combos on 360, on that pad with my thumb sliding all over the place and sometimes off the disc entirely.

My thing with RPG games is that they just take too much time to play.  I've never actually finished any of them that I've ever played in my life.  I either get stuck, or just give up.  Oh, wait, no... I take that back, I beat Xenosaga I, on PS2.  That's the only one, though.  I really don't care if it's turn based, or something closer to Kingdom hearts, or anything in between.  An RPG is an RPG to me.
