I'll play pretty much anything, though I definitely lean more towards RPGs than anything else. Oblivion was my first open-world RPG and after that, I was hooked on the genre, never have been able to shake it off. You can see a list of some of my favoured games on my profile page here, if you're that curious. The list is more expansive than that, but my entire gaming library would be a little ridiculous.
Even still I'll play anything that comes my way that seems worth my time. I don't quite understand the sports genre of gaming when I could just go outside to kick a ball around, but hey, I don't get sport at the best of times. XD
Sports games are really the only kind that I'll actively avoid if they aren't the extreme sports variant, although I'm not a huge fan of first person shooters, with a few notable exceptions of course. =P
As far as my tastes go, I'm quite flexible, though the same could be said about most aspects of my life. :3
I was 100% with you on the sports games till I actually tried it and its fun simple and relaxing. Something I did not expect from it.
It depends on the type of sport for me really. When I was younger and the series hadn't fallen to pieces, I loved the Tony Hawks games since I couldn't skateboard at all despite my interest in it, and it gave me a chance to appease that interest. It was more as a way to live out something I couldn't easily do in real life than anything else though.Quote:

As I mentioned, I like all game types for the most part. Like many I'm not big on sports/racing unless it has an interesting theme and gameplay to set it apart from the mass produced titles that the genre is plagued by.
That said, I do have a special place in my heart for RPGs. Started with games like Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy and been playing 'em since. I was a RPG nerd before it was popular, by the time Final Fantasy VII came around I was already a vet in the genre. So while I love all games, I'll always be down for a good RPG.
I'm buying Ni No Kuni at the start of the month, it's PS3 exclusive (I think) and looks like a throw back to classic RPGs with a lighthearted (E rated) theme. Been playing so many gritty bloody games lately I need something a little more childlike and fun for a change of pace, hope Ni No Kuni offers that and it looks like it.
