I liked IX as far as RPGs go. On the other hand, it is the last FF I ever played, because it showed the major problem I have with Final Fantasy.

I'm honestly more of a fan of fighting games myself, but this is what everyone else is talking about, so I've been going along with it. Anyway...

I think everybody here avoids sports games.

Tony Hawk 3 (while a few years old) is a good game which I think qualifies as a sports game... but I could be wrong on that.
There used to be an image here telling you to vote, but then Photobucket, the image site made to allow you to do third party hosting, no longer allows third party hosting without throwing a shitload of money at them... and I can barely afford to eat. So no you get some text of me bitching about it, yaaay! Also, go vote.

SPORTS GAMES ARE BAD! END OF DISCUSSION!

:P

yeah, the skateboarding/racing aren't so bad.

...does racing qualify as a sports game?

Edit: Smiley placement.

Erm, a racing game would be borderline between Sports and Sim, depending on how realistic it is...

One of the wrestling games for the Nintendo 64 was pretty good, too... I think it was Wrestlemania or something... nice customization and pretty fun in multiplayer.

How would Mario Kart fit? I've been playing those since the SNES days.

Tony Hawk's 3 wasn't too bad. Probably one of the PS2's better early titles.

I've grown out of RPGs, mostly. Like LeetPixelz said, "Save the world, no skill needed."

I needed Super Mario RPG to prove to myself that I could beat video games. I needed Final Fantasy to show me that games could have plot.

From there, I moved onto games where you actually did stuff.

Don't get me wrong. I've always been a fan of third-person action games, from the 2D sidescrollers of yore to the overhed 3/4 view 3D games. I just didn't have the confidence to go very far. It was too hard. I blamed it on my thumbs (which don't bend as well as most peoples'. This is mainly because I was born without a thumb muscle, and doctors transplanted an extra pinky muscle.) and I would watch. My brother and I were a team (at least until he figured out how to do my job): he would play the game, and I would solve the puzzles for him.

RPGs are good, but I've moved on. I can't stand examining things, and running through menus to figure out how to beat the monster that just appeared. RPGs don't give me the same feeling of triumph.

I haven't payed attention to a post after the one I responded too.

Master of Orion 2 was an excellent game. However, steer clear of MOO3. Horrible, horrible game...

For fans of the MOO series, might I suggest trying a demo of Starship Unlimited? It's currently at version 3.0, and is an excellent game in the 4X tradition.

RPGs, Turn-based strategy, third-person action/adventure, FPS, fighting games, platformers, racers, hell, I'll admit it, I've even played a few sports games...and ENJOYED it! *gasp* :P

Yeah, I'm not really that picky, to be honest. If I like it, I'll play it, regardless of category.

Ok ok. I like some racing games. Even bought and liked Kinetica.

Other than racing games Ice Hockey and Super Dodge Ball for the NES are the only sports games Ill play.

Starship Unlimited huh? I'll keep it in mind.

I like strategy games. The type dosn't matter. 4x, RTS, turn based, whatever the hell HOMM counts as...

I also like shoot 'em up games of all flavours.
