Primary bias. What genre do you consider yourself a hardcore fan of? You tend to play most games in this genre, but perhaps disagree a small amount with mainstream opinion.

....

Secondary bias. What genre do you have an obscure taste in? You like games in this genre that the majority tend not to like, or the games that the majority tend to like you can sometimes give or take.

....

Everything else is just following the mainstream.

Primary: Survival horror, and any and all forms of RPG and JRPG.

Secondary: I have a odd taste for Turn based, and to a extent RTS.

I have a bias against a genre

I really don't care for jrpgs. Other than that I'd say I like rpgs a bit more, but I play pretty much everything except jrpgs.

I am a gamer. I can sit down and enjoy any kind of game. Except maybe sports games. I'm not a sports fan. Honestly though, if I was at someone's house and they were having a Madden party, I'd probably grab a controller, just because playing a game>not playing a game.

My personal favorite genre of games would probably be RPGs. That, or Hack'n'slash action games. Or shooters. Hmmm. I take it back, I'm going with what I said first, Anything but sports games.

I actually enjoy platformers a lot more than most people. They require perfection at times.

Competitive skill based games.

I have no bias. I like everything equally.

.

Lol. It sounds funny every time I say it.

Umm, Adventure games, RPGs (JRPGs in particular), puzzle games, rhythm games, shooters...

Really, I just don't liks sports or racing games. (like, racers that try to be realistic)

I'll play anything from any genre, but usually I have a much lower threshold for liking RPG,RTS and Strategy games in general.

Im mainly a FPS/RPG/ACTION junkie, i absolutely hate sports games, and by sports games i mean, Football, American Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Golf, Rugby. Those genres are just not for me.

However i do like some BMX, Skatboarding and Motoracing games.

First Person Shooters .... Unfortunatly I'm apperently "Cursed" because Ive played Halo 3 SP/MP and thought it was mediocre and more of the same old "Half-FPS Half-Melee Trash" that I always thought it to be ... but pretty much every over FPS I love, followed by RPG/MMORPG.

Action adventure.

It seems only a few games in this genre have become worthy to me though. That would be:

Otogi

NG

DMC

Shinobi

Casual trash like GoW and probably HS will not do at all.
