I like things from many different genres. Halo is a shooter, KOTOR an RPG, the JK stuff an RTS...I think? Or is that like Starcraft, big battlefield stuff? Then what'd you call ....third person shooters? Eh? Just action? Probably? And LegoSW counts as humor.

I would have to agree with you, as I play about everything. But What's that "Lol!" thing?

I would have to agree with you, as I play about everything. But What's that "Lol!" thing? If I were to take a guess, he's parodying the ESPS Randomness Test. As for this poll, you missed quite a few genres, The Two. Not that it matters too much, as you put "other" as an option. I play everything. RPGs, RTS, Platformers, Fighting, Racing (abit rarely), those games you can never beat (Animal Crossing, The Sims), First Person and Third Person shooters, but most of all, Action/Adventure games. The only genres I can think of that I don't have are puzzle games. Oh! And sports! I HATE sports games with a passion! (So much that I didn't think of it as a genre untill I checked the poll options just now.) If I had to pick one fave, it'd be Action/Adventure. Shooters come in second, followed by RPGs. I dispise platformers, and hate most racing games (but Need for Speed: Most Wanted has me hooked right now). So I'll go with A/A. |

Lol is a joke Dnb just a joke and you fell for it.
Mfb it's a small poll I could have made it have about 50 answers if I wanted to.
And Racing if a sports game by the way. And cy star craft is a RTS and the JK games are Fps
they are in this one rather than Third person shooters because your can switch between them.

I interrupt this congradulating to say that I am admin! And you must not double post pointlessly like such! I mean there were plenty of other places to put that.
I understand about RTS now. Been wanting to know that for a while actually...thanks.

You should talk I've seen you triple plus post Cy.
You welcome.
And MFB A/A right now is a minority in the gaming world so I didn't put it on there also there is only one game in that genre that is great and I think you know what that is but the others might not so here it is: The Zelda games.

And MFB A/A right now is a minority in the gaming world so I didn't put it on there also there is only one game in that genre that is great and I think you know what that is but the others might not so here it is: The Zelda games. Er...you don't check major game sites, do you? I suggest you take a look at this: www.theesa.com/facts/sales_genre_data.phpYou say that A/A is a minority. That's actually the opposite. A/A is the majority. In 2004, A/A amounted to 30.1% of the total Console game sales. Compare that to the 17.8% for sports and 9.6% for shooters. Also, Zelda is not the only great A/A game. That would be an opinion, not a fact. What about Shadows of the Colossus? Or God of War? Those games score REALLY high this last year, and God of War won Game of the Year! And you know Grand Theift Auto, the biggest selling video game ever? It's an Action/Adventure game too. So are Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil 4. Just because a character has a gun doesn't make it a shooter necessarilly. It's become hard to tell the difference between some genres. (Note that I havn't played any of these titles.) You are probably basing your opinion on the game choices of younger gamers, who mostly favor Shooters. (I assume you are somewhere in your teens) I'm not trying to argue with you, but you should try to gain a strong knowledge of the game industry before declaring things as fact. If you had said this on a major game site, like an IGN forum, you would be flamed to death. Racing IS a genre in itself. Don't confuse it with sports games. Would you call Mario Kart or F-Zero a sports game? What about Burnout or Need For Speed? There's little "sport" qualities about those games. You should probably check out these sites: www.ign.comwww.gamestats.comDon't take this on the offensive. I'm just trying to enlighten you. I mean, it's fine by me if you don't believe me, or don't want to, but be carefull if you go to more populated forums and find them...less than friendly. Oh, and the Jedi Knight series is listed as a A/A title. But it probably is more like a A/A/Shooter title (somewhat along the lines of the Metroid Prime series). |

You should talk I've seen you triple plus post Cy. Heh, where? I'm definatly fond of the 'new' RPG-type games where you can go light or dark. Tis intriguing, and good design. KOTOR is awesomen...that's like that. And Fable, but I have not yet played Fable. Have one of you? |

First Person Shooter! WoOt!
Double posting...I do it all the time. Sometimes there's just no other choice when you only look at one or two posts a day and no one has posted in like a bajillion years.
I'm sure somewhere, sometime you have double posted, Cy. Come on now, you can't deny it ;-)

mfb I'm not talking about (a)web site that say that a/a are in but companys that make games
make more fps and rpg than a/a (b) GTA is a shooter so is RE4 not a/a (c) we are talking about more than one system here and (d)God of War won which game of the year award because there are about 50 different ones.also Doom knows what FPSs I am talking about
and that is why I said those titles and just because they are rated M doesn't mean that minors like us don't play them.GTA is 1 game that we shouldn't talk about because it is a poor game I don't care how well it sells but in it you kill cops and there is content that makes the ones I said i.e. Doom Half-life and Halo look very clean so if you don't like M games to be talk about on this thread than don't say Adult only games.
Cy you tripled posted on a couple threads but I haven't been on ESPS in awile so I don't know which thread it was sorry. iliveforthis please don't put the phrase wtf on this site even if you put it backwards(see post above this one)
mfb racing is a sport take mario kart you race for points and you try to beat other racers like in other sports did u see the olympics(sp) speed skating is a sport and its racing and then theres nascar which if you look in a news paper is in the sports part.
younger gamers who are you to call us younger gamers mfb?
also I said games like half-life and doom because people know what those games are.
mfb I don't go on other forums because I don't have the time.
Enlighten me? why not just down right insult me?
mfb you must be at least 20 and remember a time when all games but turn-based strategy and sports games were considered a/a this was late 80s early 90s lets put it this way I hardly remember them due to young age.
I think that I am not being treated fairly on this site and I was told it was a good one where everyone was cool and accepted everyone but p erverts. I am not one but all of you have attack every thing I've said and I wonder why? what have I done that makes you all dislike me so much. I am sorry to argue with you mfb but you have been attacking my every word and it is rather annoying.Snub me once fine snub me twice fine snub me every time not fine.
