I have played a lot of games on pc, playstation etc. Infact that was one of the reason I first started sitting on computers. Adventure games (Monkey Island, Alone in the dark etc) were my favorites from the beginning and they still are. Never liked strategy and war games for some reason (Red Alert, Sims etc). Sports (Need for Speed, Fifa, Cricket) was another favorite category. Recently due to games like Max Payne and Grand Theft Auto, Action games have picked up a lot and are one of the in-demand genres.
Too bad i dont find enough time to waste on those games anymore. But I sure miss playing those games during high school and university days.
What about you people? Which one was your favorite category, If any?
Xbox.. I get very little time/opportunity to play video games, and whatever time I get, I only play games based on actual sports. I tried these GTA kinda games, but didn't like them.
So, FIFA tops the list. Unfortunately there is no Cricket I can find on X-Box. I have a couple of car racing games. In addition wrestling, Ice Hockey and skating. Also plan to get NFL, Baseball and Basketball at some point.
Ever heard of Tekken, Faisal?? It was one of those fight games but it really created quite a sensation and it different versions were voted game of the year for two consecutive years on many gaming sites. I think but i m not sure that it first came out on Play station. Man, we cousins used to have its session for hours with winner to stay thing :D
sabyyy: i miss playing supermario.. back in 1995 when we first got Sega(i guess thats what its calls) it used to be one of my fav game... too bad i couldnt finished...i still wish if i can get hold on to this one here in usa...
my most favourite game that i used to play alot in computer was Price of Persia... uffff that was the awesome game.... do u knwo if this game still exists... or anthin similar to that?
my fav genres hav to be fps (First Person Shooter), RTS (Real Time Strategy) , no turn based crap, sports, and probablly platform games like ratchet and clank and Mario. Right now, im playing two games all the time. AA (America's Army) which is a free fps made by americas army adn way better than Counter Strike and Midnight Club 2 which is like NFSU without all the licensed cars but MC2 is really addictive and has online support too.
championship manaher (a soccer manager game)
Generals
Age of Mythology
Hitman
[/QUOTE]
i played all these games besides championship manager last year and were all awesome. C&C is by far my fav franchise. Btw, which hitman r u talking about here??
Hitman trilogy
Hitman 1 : Codename 47
Hitman 2 : Assasins
Hitman 3 : Contracts
These are the best games I ever played. They are so comprehensive and detailed that really stimulate a hardcore gamer's instincts.
Others include Commandos(1,2,3,4), Age of Empires, NFS Underground, Max Payne, MOHAA.
My Favorite are Mechassault, Splinter cell series, Ninja Gaiden, MotoGP 1,2 and soon 3, NFL 2k4, High Heat baseball, NBA 2k4, Project Gotham racing, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Genma Onimusha and so many more ...

I'm a huge fan of Japanese RPG's, like Final Fantasy and other such games.

- Manhunt
- Bully
- Grand Theft Auto 3
- WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2006
- Donald Duck Quack Attack (also known as Donald Duck Goin' Quackers)
- Spider-man 3
- Superman Returns
- Kingdom of Hearts II
