I like RPGs because they sometimes have an open world feature like Skyrim. I also like side-scroller because they are mostly platformers and I love platformers. So my two favorites are side-scrollers and RPGs.

My favourite type of game is open-world. I love exploration and all the things i can find.

My favourite kind of games would be Driver-esque open world games, in which you could simply drive around, discovering new places.

I can play games from all genres honestly so it's really hard to say. I really like open world games, from pokemon to gta. I like games with good stories, the kind of games that even after finishing them you still think about them. I still remember the emotion storm that went inside me when I finished bioshock infinite, it's a game that I'll never forget. I also like hard and challenging games, but the fair kind, not the ones that expect me to have super human reflexes or in other words - unfair games. (like "I wanna be the guy", it's just unfair)

I love MMOFPS games, they have very good graphics, realism, and great gameplay.

Off topic: But every game in the world, no matter what gametype it has, will be hated by players because of hackers, yeah... will happen sometime in every game and we know that.

I always been a huge rpg fan. Any type of RPG really from Pokemon to Kingdom Hearts to Skyrim. Especially since they usually got a great story to go along with them too.

I would have to say side scrollers.RPGs,action,and shooters are also great,but my favorite has always been the good old side scroller.

My favorite type of video games would be the open-world, free roaming games (like WATCH_DOGS, GTA, Jak & Daxter, FARCRY, etc.). My second favorite type of VGs are also driving/racing games (Trials, GRAN TURISMO, DRIVER, Cruis'n, etc.). My last favorite type of video games are fighting (mostly hand-to-hand combat & versus fighting) games (TEKKEN, Virtua Fighter, MORTAL KOMBAT, FIGHTING FORCE, Sonic The Fighters, WWE (THQ or 2K Sports) games, etc).

PS: I appropriately said StF b/c I recently purchased the Sonic layout a few weeks ago. 

My favorite games definitely fall under the rpg category more often than not I prefer a leveling system a good story and something I can go brain dead with for hours and be kept on the edge of my seat it seems to be the best choice practically based on how great some of the rpgs out there are and were. Although some rpgs are not great and some of which I actually enjoyed while others didn't which is sad but necessary.
If not rpgs I would go for cinematic games like Metal gear practically due to the ridiculousness of the game itself.  

My favorite type of game would have to be rpg's. I also like racing and puzzles. I play tekken but that doesn't mean I like fighters. I dislike street fighter ( for now ) and sometimes play king of fighters. Might come to like fighting games as well.

I honestly have always loved the RPG genre games because jsut the idea of living the life of someone else has always intrigued me, it's probably the reason that I started playing videogames, I was always a fan of Zelda and Metroid, and well Pokemon is a must that I have played over and over and would love to see a console or PC game for. Ever since I got into PC gaming I have witnessed MMORPG games and well SAO just made my love for those to explode so I am saving up for a better graphics card in order to be able to have a neat experience when palying MMORPGs. I especially like the Final Fantasy series everything seems so original and the graphics keep getting more and more gorgeous as each new game comes out I am seriously looking foward for the next final fantasy. Well as you just saw I love RPGs 
Chindogu : That aatrox layout was pretty sick :OO i liked the picture. 

Lets see...yet again, I can't pick just one.

I love playing Assassin's Creed. What would you call that? Action, adventure, RPG...all of the above? Those could be favorites of mine...

I also liked playing Gran Turismo on Playstation and Forza on Xbox. So, racing games are also one of my favorite...

And if you know me well enough, you'd know that I like sports. Can't leave sports games out of this conversation. I prefer playing the NCAA Football games. I've been playing them since 2002. I never get tired of playing them.

I guess I'll pick Assassin's Creed. Whatever category you want to put that in, that would be my favorite.

If you asked me this 5 years ago, I could have said Racing, easily. But, lately I have been playing Skyrim ( an RPG ) and the Gears of War series ( A TPS, or a shooter ). I guess I really do not know what it would be now. if I was forced to pick something, though, it would probably be shooters, as that is what I have been playing a lot of lately. 

I like multiplayer games, such as team fortress 2, and Garry's Mod. Puzzle games are cool, too.

Eroge. 

I enjoy all types but I'm picky about what consoles I choose to play
them.  For instance, I'd rather play THPS 2 for the N64 than to play the
latest Tony Hawk game on the shelf.  I'd rather play Resident Evil on
PlayStation 1, than the newer ones.  The games I really love to play are
each a part of the following genres:  Platform, Survival Horror, First
Person Shooter, and Racing games.

Racing games and open world rpgs Barathemos:

Barathemos : I always love great action, so RPG is not exactly my style. I love action/adventure games. However, from little on, I was raised on arcade games. That sort of is in me. My favorite games are action/arcade platformers, but if you can toss a score in there for all the levels--that is my ultimate favorite style--The Action/Adventure Arcade!
