Sport games... Or at least, realistic ones. I like Mario Power Tennis and Pangya Fantasy Golf, but don't ask me to play a round of Madden or NHL...

most sports games (i do like racing though....even got a taste for sims thanks to forza). minigame compilations. i do like a good minigame in a bigger game (eg chocobo racing in ff7 or the brief arcade shooter in crystal bearers) but i wouldnt spend money just to play minigames. games like farenheight or heavy rain...is there a name for those yet? anywho i can respect what the dev is trying to acomplish.....but its not for me...it really isnt. MMORPGs in the everquest mould. i cant emphasise this enough....i hate everquest...despise it. its an anti game imho. i very rarely flat out hate a game and i always try to find something reedeming. hell i can find reedeming qualities in red steel. but EQ is just horrid imho....i can not think of one single good point.

First person shooters. It kind of baffles me to see people buying essentially the same game over and over and over and over....

I dislike most modern FPS. They have become too realistic, and lost most of their charm in my opinion. It's a shame really, as I used to be a huge fan of them back in the days of Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, and Exhumed. I was never really a fan of sports games either, but this is because I was never really a fan of sports in real life.

Not a huge racing fan for sure (Only racing game I've enjoyed since the original Gran Turismo is Burnout: Paradise), but puzzle games bore me, as do Sports titles.

I agree, and with all the people who have made similar points.

In a world where people don't go out and experience nature much anyway, I think it's quite sad that things like Wii fit are proclaimed like the second coming - it kind of sickens me. If you want to work up a sweat, go out side, get some fresh air, meet some other humans, and experience the feel of soft grass or uneven rock beneath your feet. I think thats far more healthy.

These are similar to my reasons for being greatly apprehensive of increased motion controls or immersive type games.

I don't hate any genre at all, but my least favorite is the social/sim kind of game. Take for instance, The Sims or Viva Pinata. That isn't to say that I didn't enjoy the few hours I put into those games. They were unique that's for sure, but I didn't feel like playing them again after a day or two and I just moved on to other games. I'd say strategy games are up there too. I just hate the drawn out conflicts and more or less watching it play out while you give a few commands. I enjoy being an active participant which makes shooter and action gameplay more up my alley. Normally I would also include Sports or Racing, but those can be a lot of fun with other people so I have to say that it's probably a toss up between Strategy and Sim games.

Mainly fighting games. I only have a good time with those when I play with my friends - but since most of my friends don't really play much anymore, I don't see any enjoyment for me to play these games. And then there is also the racing games, not really a big fan of those.

I notice a lot of people saying sports. That's interesting to me because I actually enjoy a good sports game even though I don't actually keep up with or even watch any sports.

My favorites are probably soccer, hockey, and golf. Man, now I kind of really want to play some FIFA. Dammit. :P

I prefer PC games to netgames cause netgames cost me more energy, time and money. for PC games , you could stop anywhere and anytime. It is more flexible for me and avoid me from indulging and lost myself in the net.

I'm also not a big fan of fantasy-type games, e.g. Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age.

My least favorite has to be racing. I just don't have any fun with racing games, and avoid them like the plague. How about you guys?

Some people who enjoy sports games actually do play sports as well. My brother and his group of friends love sports. Playing basketball, football, baseball, bowling, golf...if it's a sport either my brother or one of his friends plays AND they play only sports games. Trust me, I don't get it myself. Madden 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012....NB2K to infinity. Each sports game comes out each year and they're out at midnight purchasing it. There are weekly tournaments and lots ot trash talking, so I get the community aspect of it, but what's the difference between one year and the next? I often tease my brother, making him detail those differences and often it has to do with the improved realism of the grass or some other such thing.

He's tried other genres and he beats the game, then sells them. So I guess he just likes sports genre above all others (besides Rock Band/Guitar Hero/DJ Hero

I'm pretty limited in my genres but I absolutely can't stand fantasy. Too bad most RPG's are fantasy based.

What about music games? ;)

I don't understand how people can not like a type of game because it can be done in real life. Computer gaming and real life are so far removed from each other it's not even worth comparing. People p[lay computer games to enjoy an experience, not as a replacement for a real life activity. I can swing a golf club or baseball bat with much greater skill on a console than in real life :) That said I still thoroughly enjoy both. Maybe someone loves cricket but they don't have enough friends who want to play frequently enough so they extend their hobby to computer games. That way they get to enjoy an aspect of the sport they love. They get to see the atmosphere of a sporting event they love, play as their team, etc.

By your argument people shouldn't read aboutsport in a newspaper or book. Or watch it on TV, or attend an event as they could just go out and do it.

I know that's taking your argument to the extreme and that's not what you're saying but comments comparing going out and playing sport in real life vs playing it on a console drive me nuts. They are two completely different things. Not everyone who likes playing sport likes sport computer games and not everyone who likes sport computer games likes going out and playing sport.

I told my brother about the comments in this thread about playing real sports versus sports gaming and he came back with this reply: "Another reason I play sports games is to make it to the championships with the Lions which is never going to happen in real life." :)

That statement is just plain dumb. Firstly, playing a sports game on a console is nothing like playing a real sport. Most real sports are alot less accessible than console sports games. I dont know about you, but I find it pretty difficult to go outside and find someone to box with without getting my face smashed in. I suck at boxing in real life(I'm assuming, I've never actually tried to box before) but I can play Fight Night and have loads of fun with it. I completely suck at Tennis and hate playing it, but I love Virtua Tennis. Using a controller to play a virtual sport is nothing like playing the actual sport so saying someone should play an actual sport instead of a console sport game is just stupid.
