That one genre you will always love.

[Exius Xavarus]

RPG. Every kind of RPG. Well, every kind except strategy.

Turn Based Strategy. I like to take my time and think about what I'm doing.

Third person survival horror games like resident evil , silent hill, dead space, the last of us. I love games that focus on resource management and crafting/ making do with what you have

 

[Rooster893]

Fighting games. Ever since I played Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 as a child, I still love the hype that fighting games can bring.

Turn based strategy. RTS is madness, because why playing strategy and have no time designing your own cruisers, or plotting the downfall of the Holy Roman Empire fifty years from now on?

 

[Chester Rabbit]

Stealth. I will never ever get tired of simply eluding my enemies in the shadows and keeping things as quiet as possible and everyone utterly clueless when they discover a certain important object is missing or a certain somebody isn?t asleep in their chair.
Or you know....just stabbing/shooting everyone while their back is turned.

And of course 2-D platformers.
They are always the most interesting both mechanically and aesthetically and they just keep getting more and more interesting as time carries on.

Turn based strategy, but there are so few of them. :-(

Indeed, world domination is not something that can be rushed. It must be carefully pondered.


I also like economic games. Good ones like Railroad Tycoon, Tropico and Capitalism.

2D and 3D platformers, my favorites are
Abe's oddysee-exodus
Crash Bandicoot series
Super Mario series
Sonic adventure 1-2
Klonoa
Banjo Kazooie
Croc
Jack and Daxter
and many many others

Not only did you take my answer, but you managed to list almost every game I was going to list.
Bravo good sir, bravo.

Only thing to add to the list above from me are all Sonic games and the Ape Escape games.

Edit: Oh, and the Ratchet and Clank and old Spyro games, can't forget those gems (All 4 One, Full Frontal Assualt, Spyros after Year of the Dragon notwithstanding)

Damn it you took the half answer I had and made it almost my full answer!

Add in some MegaMan, classic linear Castlevania and Metroidvania. Along with a touch Medevil and Sly 1-3 and you've pretty much got my deal.

Also a bit of Gunstar Heroes and Goldenaxe.

That kind of retro-console game is always gonna be just pure fun, especially on the couch with a buddy. Friggin Golden Axe 3 is amazing.

2d scrollers like super mario bros and sonic. I'm old school.

Yes platformers for sure, too good, and simple fun and challenge.
