Forums - Gaming Discussion - What is your least favourite gaming genre?

It's a tie between shooter and racing games (excluding kart racers). I'm not much into sports games either - I like to play FIFA from time to time, but I only buy a new one every few years.

So this gen with the rise of FPS on console and the decline of JRPGs has been rather depressing for me. I feel what the platformer fans had to go through not too long ago - their genre came back, so I hope JRPGs will too.

Facebook/iPhone/Android games followed by sports games.



Ehm, don't crucify me, but I dislike Jump&Runs. Sport-games and Racers I dislike often too, but there are always exceptions. But I never found an exciting Jump&Run.

On the other hand I like Adventures (all of them, action-adventures, point&click and even text-adventures), that genre probably died because most people dislike it. Even Cing died *sniff*. And I like RPGs with turn-based battles, a grid map and grinding. I get the feeling most people hate that. So I think I don't count, I seem to be an alien from outer space.

I don't wanna role play as a baseball/soccer/basketball player. I got two working legs, I could go do that shit outside if I really wanted to.


Could you really do this?


Of course! I'm hispanic, it's in my blood.


Then make a youtube video, damn it!


Nah, I don't wanna make ya'll feel inadequate about your futbol skills. Besides, I'm too busy not playing sports games.

WHERE IS MY KORORINPA 3

Sports games. Though Sports games with motion controls are amazing. I had tons of fun playing Sports Champions and Wii Sports.

I also don't like racing games, as I'm absolutely terrible at them. Same with fps, which make me motion-sick (but I do have some fun in local co-op mode with over the top kind of friends)



mario games... it has to be a genre by now... and i don't like them much!



Proudest Platinums - BF: Bad Company, Killzone 2 , Battlefield 3 and GTA4

If Wii Sports doesn't count as an actual sports game, then easily sports games xD. Other than that.. I'd have to say FPS games.

Racing sims, I just find them incredibly boring. I also don't care for real racing either, a bunch of cars going round in circle is not my idea of fun.


This. I'll also add that I generally hate games that are time based.
