Multiplayer FPS: Team Fortress 2

--Runnerup: Quake 3

FPS: Crysis
runner-up: Half-Life 2

(only "real" RPG I've played is Eye of the Beholder and I had trouble staying awake through that, so the best I can give you are action RPG's)
RPG: Oblivion
runner-up: Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction

Strategy: Dawn of War: Dark Crusade
runner-up: Tie between Yuri's Revenge and Battle for Middle-Earth, I think (or maybe I'm just too lazy to think of which one I like more right now).

FPS: Deus Ex (System Shock 2 isn't too far behind, though.) RPG: Fallout (I'm not so sure if I should give TESIII: Morrowind the runner-up spot. In any case, I need to get cracking on Fallout 2, both Baldur's Gates, and Planescape: Torment before I can decide on an actual favorite RPG.) Fictional Sport: Rocket Jockey (I don't really have a runner-up in mind, though. Maybe I ought to fire up WinUAE, load Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe, play it a lot, and plop it as my runner-up, nevermind the fact that I'm talking about the Amiga version and not the PC port or remake.) Space Adventure and Exploration: Star Control II (Starflight easily nabs the runner-up spot.)

The only game for me is the Football Manager series on the PC (formally Championship Manager). I have been playing their games since Championship Manager 2 years back. There have been games like Red Alert, Starcraft and Total Club Manager that have come and gone. The simple fact is that it has been a game that I have always come back to. I own both the original Xbox and 360 but Football manager has always had my attention. I am sure I will still be playing it in my middle age and beyond. Oh and the game never ends.
