SideScroller Platformer Action/Adventure Fighting - (Street Fighter, SSBros) Survival Horror Adventure/Puzzle First Person 'Adventure'
Hate
Shooters Sand Box Simulators - (Sports, Racing ect) RPG 'Turn Based' 'Combo Based' Fighting - (Like Dead or Alive, Tekken, Virtua Fighter, Dragon Ball and Soul Calibur)
And really, i'd love to see a First Person 'Survival Horror' in the same vain as Resident Evil, with lots of interactive puzzles for the Wii, using IR and Motionplus controls. Limmited Bullets, back tracking, items, scary environments ect. imagine the possibilities. It would breath life into the first person genre. because i'm sick of the countless mindless shooters(like alot of people are). Metroid Prime 3: Corruption on the other hand was such an amazing experience for me...After experiencing the IR/Motion controls alone, i cant go back to dual analog or mouse and keyboard, both control schemes are boring, archiac, dated and un-imerssive in comparison. If Metroid Prime 3 didn't have IR/Motion controls it definitly wouldn't of had the same impact on me.
Another example is playing RE4:Wii Edition(which also had fantastic IR Controls which totaly 1-uped the experience to the tee') and then having to go and play RE5 with Dual Analog controls...total dissapointment control-wise.
Yea, I'm that tolerant when it comes to genres like RPGs and platformers and shmups/cute'em ups. ActRaiser has simulation scenes on it, and they're fun (even though I haven't found every item in that game).
Favorite: Platformers (any dimension), shmups, RPGs, puzzle, FPS (they're starting to grow on me)
Least favorite: Fighting (cuz mashing random buttons until a stereotypical karate guy/buxom ninja girl shoots a fireball out of their hands is not my idea of fun), Simulation (a lot of them are fun at first, but get boring quickly), sports
Meh: First-person shooters (exceptions like Team Fortress 2, Halo), Sports (exceptions include crazy sports games like NBA Jam, Mutant League games, Super Dodgeball <3), Racing (exceptions like competitive karting games)

lol what the frig' man? You've got it all wrong with your opinion on fighting games....Since when was Street Fighter a Button Masher? There's a thing called skill...You can't just mash buttons. The same goes for SSB Melee and SSB Brawl. If you want to talk button mashers, then 'Soul Calibur' and 'Dead Or Alive' ring a bell...Yes those games involve skill, but you can still button mash your way to victory. I also can't stand Virtua Fighter or Tekken...
Super Street Fighter II HD Remix and SSBros Melee/Brawl are the finest fighters ever produced if you ask me. Both games require tons of skill. I can't stand fighters that are all about combo's....LIKE Tekken, Virtual Fighter, Dead or Alive, Soul Calibur or the Dragon Ball Fighters. Street Fighter and Brawl are totaly different on the other hand...Not to mention Guilty Gear XX and Blaze Blue.
Favorite- RPGs (action, turn-based, anything but tactical (and sometimes those too) Sidescrollers TPS
Least Favorite Sports games Puzzle games (most of them) Donatello's stupid capital O mid-word thing, and subsequent skirting of the issue to unsuccessfully smack-talk Digiki
@Wrongcardo91 - yup gonna have to disagree with the fighting games opinion. Party-fighting games maybe, but real fighting games are some of the deepest experiences one can have in 2-player space. Soul Cal and DoA were horrible examples of button-mash-to-victory...either that or you're playing with equally inexperienced people. If you button mash against me in either of the above examples (VF and Tekken included), you will lose. Every fight. And I'm really not that great.

Just let it happen.

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.
Yeah, fighting games are some of the most tactical games around. The epitome really is Street Fighter III: Third Strike. You'll notice that button mashing will get you nowhere in it. It's less about moves and more about maneuvering and timing. Other good ones are Guilty Gear XX Λ Core Plus, Melty Blood: Act Cadenza ver.B and King of Fighters 2002: Unlimited Match.
And Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is fantastic, though button mashing does quite well in it.
