What game type do you prefer playing? - bit-tech.net Forums

Bindibadgi · 3rd Aug 2007, 17:52

Given any game, what genre would you most prefer to play? Personally I'm an FPS nut but I will stray outside to play stuff like Civilization 4 and the odd racing game now and then.

I like playing RTS games (especially CnC3 ATM), but I keep coming back to CS:S. Therefore, I had to vote for FPS.

charlesbeams · 3rd Aug 2007, 18:11

FPS for me please!

lcdguy · 3rd Aug 2007, 18:12

i prefer FPS or Space Combat Sim but it has to have a good story line

wafflesomd · 3rd Aug 2007, 18:24

It's doesn't matter what I like to play, I'm only good at fps'.

oddball walking · 3rd Aug 2007, 18:26

Fps for me, but i do play some others such as Max Payne, and age of empires also some platform games for my psp and stuff.

I'll say FPS but couldn't live on it all the time. Needs my RTS and RPG fix occassionally.

E.E.L. Ambiense · 3rd Aug 2007, 19:36

FPS, mostly. I love a little variety though.

dragontail · 3rd Aug 2007, 20:15

RTS. Can't get enough of them. Though a good RPG every now and again also does the trick nicely.

specofdust · 3rd Aug 2007, 20:25

I put RPG because my favourite games of all time have all been RPG (morrowind, oblivion, deus ex). But I don't like most RPG's that are out, and the games I play most are FPS and RTS.

Ghys · 3rd Aug 2007, 21:29

FPS -> UT for the win !

Racing games in 2nd place , along with old school games (I play MegaMan a lot

)

Tim S · 4th Aug 2007, 10:32

I was an FPS nut, but I have to say I've turned into a reformed RTS nut (it was the first type of game I played across the internet back in 1996!) in the last twelve months.

FPS

ElThomsono · 4th Aug 2007, 11:43

RPGs entertain me more (Morrowind, Gothic, etc.) but I can spend hours on end in de_dust2. It's hard to choose really

Who wants to play Red Alert 2? I'll own on everyone of ya!

Glider · 4th Aug 2007, 12:12

I choose RPG, but I actually MUD a lot

Yemerich · 4th Aug 2007, 12:21

Thats a cruel question.. It is like when someone asks: "Do u prefer redheads, brunnetes or blondes?" And i always answer "I prefer the one that is nearest"!

But i voted RPG...

antiHero · 4th Aug 2007, 12:27

RTS for me. I played everything since Dune2
