Racing simulations!  And the closer they are to real life, the better!  Computer, disengage safety protocols, authorization Chapman-27-Delet-4.

You didn't forget, it's right there under Other.

RTS & FPS. Especially FPS, where you can shoot people in the face and kill massive drones with contempt.

RPG here too. Shame that so few good ones are made.

Ah well I can always replay Fallout/Fallout2 and hope a sequel will be done (rather than Fallout: 3rd spinoff)

It won't be sorry Fallout 3 was way to much fun and New Vegas was really good too

It wasnt a fallout RPG however, that was the problem.

Yeah, can we have a category for fun?  I like some of each.  I like all kinds of games. I like FPS, but I don't play alot, Especially all the new M rated ones with rediculuous amounts of cursing in them.   I like most RTS but not all.  I like Action/adventure games but not fighter games unless it is in the super smash series. i lik sims and i generally don't like turn based games, but KotOR was very good.

So yeah, I like fun games.

KOTOR wasnt turn based :p


Shooters are fun, but they stopped innovating ages ago, bout the only innovative shooter Ive seen in over a decade was operation flashpoint and its spinoffs.

the fighting was :p

I thought Republic commando was a innovative shooter because of the squad based combat.  The paterns movements and manuvers the squad had was so fine tuned, I think that if it were done with modern day graphics and maybe a longer campaign, it would be easily be on the top 10 list of best shooters, right up there with Bf:BC2 and CoD.  It is by far one of my favorite shooters of all time.

I LOVE THAT GAME. It is my all time favorite, although I honestly haven't played may FPSs, but it actually ranks above the Halo series for me. The graphics were actually quite good. High detail, high res. Maybe there are some things that could do with updating, but I'd say the graphics are on par with most current games. I do wish the campaign was longer. Yeah the missions themselves were pretty long, but there were only three main segments. Regardless the game mechanics are worth drooling over. I have yet to see a game with better mechanics (but again I've only actually played 6 FPSs); the game flows and you have a high degree of control. They managed to achieve a level of realism and immersion that is unbelievable, and they don't rely on graphics to do it. I also liked the fact that it was still playable on the highest difficulty. With some games setting to the highest difficulty means spending six hours trying to get past one spot. In this game, yes it gets harder, but it's not unplayable.

I have mixed feelings about KotOR. I haven't actually finished it, mostly time constraints, but I found that it kind of got teadious after a while.

KOTOR is my favorite RPG! ......probably because it's the only RPG i've ever played.   
And republic commando is my favorite FPS, out of 3.

The graphics were actually quite good. High detail, high res. Maybe there are some things that could do with updating, but I'd say the graphics are on par with most current games.

I agree completely....just wish for in game 1080p resolution setting . It looks even better if you go to Nvidia's control panel and force 16xq anti-aliasing. 

I LOVE the squad commands and AI there very good


P.S. as you can tell i play mostly RTS.
