You never know what the forums demographic is until you ask...

Should be interesting.

SonGohan · Oct 21, 2003

It was a little hard to choose between fighters and RPGs, but opted for fighters as it's the most rewarding when played with another person. That, and the hours seem to whiz by faster via fighters.

added gun shooting, because um, that's what I wanted to vote for.

BTW - if you want an option added, you can request it. polls are modifiable now.

It´s fighting for me!

It will be interesting to see how many members will vote on other genres.

What's the difference between shooter ans shooters?

X · Oct 21, 2003

Maybe you should rename "Gun Shooting" to Light Gun.

metallizer · Oct 21, 2003

no FMV opition?

I´m sure there is someone who likes it

Bishamon · Oct 21, 2003

I really enjoy 2D fighting games and shmups (2D vertical, primarily), but 3D driving games are my #1 favorite.

I too love 2d fighting games, and shooters and puzzle games... but my favorite game of all time is a racing game... Shit... well, I'm going with racing!

Fighters
Sports

...all the rest...

Puzzle
Shooter
FPS

...are tied for fifth, no matter how I look at it.

VOTED.

Had to go with Action/Adventure/Platformer only because there wasn't an option for RGS (Run & Gun Shooters = Contra, Shock Troopers, Gunstar Heroes etc.) This would be my first pick, with the Adventure part being more along the 3-D lines of games like Max Payne or Freedom Fighters, that isn't neccessarily a "Platformer" in the sense of Mario-esque style. Thus the true #2 genre would have to be SHOOTER/SHUMP, followed by Vs. Fighting Games.

In the early days, it was H/V scroll schmups all the way. But I voted for FPS. I have more fun playing the FPS on my PC, on a dark night, just me and the environment than anything else.

Runner up: schmups

2nd runner up: 2D fighting games

Lagduf · Oct 21, 2003

I had to place my vote for Action/Adventure/Platformer because well thats my favorite.

RyoGeo · Oct 21, 2003

I was torn between fighters and action/adventure. I play both about equal. Interesting to see the spread though.

Run N' Gun is basically Action. So you voted correctly.

I agree, could be interesting, I hope many ng.commers will vote.

1st: fighters

2nd: shmups of all flavours including Slug/Contra-style games, gun shooters, rail shooters, etc.etc.etc.

3rd: turn-based military strategy

4th: 2D jump-n-runs.

The rest is just a waste of time IMO.

My Favorite Genre on the Neo Geo is Fighters 1rst..

Otherwise for new systems like the Xbox etc it's First Person Shooters

Cool Poll......

rarehero · Oct 21, 2003

fighters.
it caters to my short attention span.

The_Chosen_One · Oct 21, 2003

I love my fighters and rpgs, but I picked strategy as Tactics Ogre and Final Fantasy Tactics get so much play time. You just keep going back to those kinda games.
