Silent Hill isn't a First Person Shooter. It's a Third Person Action Game.

Sry, forgot that!!

 

2D BEU

RTS

FPS/3rdPS (mainly Horror, Silent Hill, Painkiller, hate tactical shooters, dislike world war II types except for Battlefield and Day of Defeat mod)

RPGs (Sacred sux IMO, NWN forever!!!)

 

Also, as FPS+3rdPS Half-life mod I play Earth's Special Forces (the best dbz mod out there, I strongly recommend it)

Fighting games are something else IMO, they are a breed apart from the rest of the games!! They sorta change the player, while a RTS/FPS/RPG could never do that!!

Fighting games helped me build self-confidence(but not by much)!

First Person Shooters - Doom, Quake, Painkiller, yay!

Role Playing Games - Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment

Fighting games - all and any!

Scrolling beat em ups - Final Fight, Cadillacs & Dinosaurs

SHUMPS (I think that's the accronym) - R Type, Pulstar, Super Aleste

Futuristic Racers: XG2 and DethKarz are my favs here

Old skool platformers - too many to mention, but not your common Sonic/Mario games...I like the more obscure platformers, like the many found on the Amiga computer - Switchblade, Carvup, Super Frog and my fav game of all time, Gods

Futuristic Sports - Hyperblade and another very fav game, Speedball 2

Third Person games - used to hate them, but BloodRayne and GTA3 has changed that

Survival Horror games too!

I should've added those to mine. But what exactly is SHUMPS an acronym for?

Real Time strategy

FPS

Fighting (more 2D than 3D)

MMORPG

Real Time Role Playing

 

 

In no particular order :lol:

 

 

However for me the genre is a mere category. I hated fighting games until I played Samurai Shodown 2 after 7 years had passed since its original release.

 

It's the game that matters....

I like anything FUN, I don't have any real bias towards any genre as long as I can find a game in it that entertains me. The only genre I'm impartial to is fighting games, I feel that genre has started going downhill in the past 3 or 4 years and I don't play newer ones.

The genres I lean towards more......

 

FPS

Action/Adventure

Platformers

RTS

Quick google search shows that some people say "shumps" but the more correct term is "shmups." A very good site about all shmups is here

 

I couldn't find what the acronym means, but in old days the genre was called "Shoot 'Em Ups," so I think the accronym is roughly derived from there.

 

I recently downloaded R-Type Leo for Mame - how awesome is that game! Ah, R-Type...

 

Another thing...I used to love flight sims, but now I have surprisingly dropped out of them. Too many FPS, I guess.
