Fads?

This thread should just be renamed "What kind of video games do you like".

It's not GreGN's fault, it's the fault of those who have shared their choices.
I wish EA would make a new NFL Street or if I could find a new arcade hockey game I'd be set for a while. I think EA made a new Mutant League Football, but not sure how that is.

Exaggerated, ‘arcade’ style racers, as opposed to sim/lifelike controls.

Fuck a wheel, I want to push button shift w/ my NiGHTS pad.

Wish SHOX for PS2 would’ve got a sequel.

Shout out to all EA•BIG games, for that matter. SSX, NBA Street2...man, them was fire!

Yeah, wheels are cool to play with, but I'm much more comfortable and play better with a pad.

Nice games mentioned there.

Thanks, man. Speaking of nice: your YouTube neo vids are nice. I’d totally would invite you to a meetup if you’re in my neck of the woods.

Mutant League Football? I gotta check it out, but I'm more a fan of Mutant League Hockey.

Extreme sports games were fun for a few years. The first Tony Hawk game still holds up really well

I like virtual reality games on the psvr and am enjoying br games on it like Rec Room Royale. I haven’t touched br games like Fortnite at all though.

I was big into Guitar Hero for quite a while, now the guitars collect dust.

That said, I have to give it another go these days, I used to be quite good at it.

I absolutely love the 3D effect of the (New) 3DS, I even refuse to buy 3DS games that don't support 3D unless they're 3DS exclusive.

A bit too early to know if it's a fad or not, but I enjoy playing some battle royale games (mainly PUBG and Apex Legends).

Since gaming, as the one I got into, became retro-gaming, I'm still into that fad apparently.

I love my 3DS - totally into it. The Sega 3D Classics series really drove it home. Steel Empire is great, too.

You know, I usually turned it off after a little while. It didn't strain my eyes or anything, but it just seemed unnecessary to me.
I LOVED the augmented reality of the Bravely Default intro, though.

I *did* use the 3D camera to take some pictures of some titties, but I guess that's not the same appreciation of the 3D abilities.
