Horror Survival the most, I don't want to be scared shitless when I play my games, I can take zombies like dead rising, or even head crabs. But TBH i don't want to be scared so shitless I cant play the god damn game.

Sports Games make no sense

and RPGs annoy me.

Never been able to get into football sim games, despite everyone I know spending half their life on PES. It's probably because i'm just rubbish at them! Shame really as I love the sport. Football management games (ie champ man and football man) are a different kettle of fish, wasted many a weekend trying to get my beloved Bradford City into Europe.

I've never came across a genre I absolutely hate, there's always at least one good apple in a shitty bunch. The only one I can think of that doesn't have any really standout titles for me would be 'track and field' style games like the new Olympics games. Minigame collections as a whole turn me off but there's still stuff like Wario Ware and the super duper awesome 'Point Blank'

I used to play Runescape but now I try to stay away from MMORPGS (I have tried a few trials)

Sport games (including racing games because they are sport games too) The team sport games are tho most pointless games ever! i don't have to do anything and the game will play itself! Why make something like that? I have almost no control over the players. I usually just smashed the buttons.

JRPGS I don't like those ridiculous haircuts. Who has hair like that? White people in japan?
Also why are the characters in all of those games and anime movies white pre-teens? Are asians that inferior? What are they ashamed of?


That Cloud guy is not a male. What is that sword made out of anyway? Foam? If it was anything that resembles metal/ceramics he'd be dragging that thing because it would probably weigh more than him, if his puny 10 year old arms can even hold on to it.
If you like that... pedophile...

I generally don't like 3rd person shooters, but I did like the Max Payne series and Hitman series.

Puzzle/board games on the computer and anything to do with playing a virtual instrument.
Altho I did like to play around with those bells found in caves and ruins in morrowind.

And too arcadey FPS games.

I hate sport games racing games and war games ALL WAR GAMES, but not things like Gears of war and stuff, no no, those type of war games are actually interesting and arn't too realistic. Games that try to be too realistic just piss me off, you stand behind a wall for 20 minutes taking guys out 1 by 1 you think its clear and run out only to find there was a guy standing patiently waiting for you and shoots you in your toe twice and your dead. Also terrorist games fall into this catogory. I don't care if the fake US president has been kidnapped by terrorists, thats not a good fucking story to go on.

It seems that 90% of the complaints of JRPGs are "Male characters kinda look like girls! Har har!" Please, explain to me why that is justification for not liking an entire genre.

Turn based is a big cock blocker for me in those games.

And ridiculous storys that don't make sense.(MGS4 did make sense if you got the full story.)

It's a toss up between sports games, and MMORPGs for me. I don't care for sports games because I'm not into sports. I don't watch the NFL so the names in Madden mean nothing to me. Being able to create my own team of custom players in NBA2KX on the Dreamcast was pretty fun, but that's the last time I played a sports title.

I hate MMORPGs because they take a genre I love (RPGs), and focus on the least interesting aspect of it; leveling up. They remove story, character development, and the thrill of exploring new places from the genre, and replace it with a few thousand people who are doing the same exact quests as you, making your character less important than the guy who just stands around with an exclamation mark over his head all day.

I hate sport games and racing games. I just don't like them, and I stay away from them.
