I probably forgot some but feel free to add more genres! :)
 
RTS: I kill RTS games in their sleep. If I play any RTS game (and I have, i.e. Star Wars: Empire at War, World in Conflict), you know it has to be the second best thing next to... well, whatever your first best thing is. In short, I hate RTS.

FPS: I loved the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight series for PC. Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight was my first real in-depth FPS experience, and Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast just BLEW MY MIND with the advances in gameplay. I'll also add Team Fortress Classic to my list.

RPG: I'll see your Fable and raise you Knights of the Old Republic (starting to see the Star Wars gaming trend?)

Racing: I have played more hours of Need for Speed: Most Wanted than any other racing game. I'm usually more a fan of oval racing, but I loved the open world of NfS:MW.

Fighting: Definitely Super Smash Brothers and Brawl. I also logged A LOT of hours into an old SNES rom of Dragonball Z: Hyper Dimension way back when.

Simulator: The TIE Fighter Series (X-Wing Vs. TIE Fighter, X-Wing Alliance).

MMO (no, I'm not counting this as RPG): I've spent quite a few hours in WoW, and I also have to give a lot of credit to The Matrix Online. I played the closed beta and then the open beta for the few weeks while it was out. I have to say that I had the most fun in an MMO during the open beta, because they had so many live events, live storylines, live quests, they even had a radio channel called Radio Free Zion which would break into the music (usually techno/electrical) and broadcast server events like it was a news station. Then... at the very end of the event... they melted the sky and HORRIFICALLY PERMAKILLED YOUR CHARACTER BY TWISTING IT LIKE A PRETZEL. Man, those were some good times... and what happened just as the game released? I'll tell you what happened.

Sony took over, fired the ENTIRE live development team and turned the game into a huge pile of your least favorite bodily product. Please, please never make the mistake of giving me the chance to rant about Sony Online Entertainment.
 
RTS: Atm WC3 (soon to be starcraft 2 =P)

RPG: N/A

Racing: Forza 2(360)

MP Shooter: TF2(PC) but the 360 version is okay. Main problem is the lack of coherent communities such as =(eGO)=

Flight: Ace Combat (Ps2)

Stealth: Hitman (Ps2)
 
Well to be honest I haven't played much other than fps, and even then it's a very close knit thing

FPS: Half life, HL: Blue Shift, HL: Opposing Force, CS 1.6(I'm a diehard nipper fan), hl2(including ep1+2), cs:s, tfc, and TF2!
 
RTS: StarCraft (PC) and Warhammer: Dawn of War Series (PC)

FPS: Deus Ex (PC) - what an amazingly well-put together story!

RPG: Wasteland (PC), Fallout (PC), Neverwinter Nights (PC) .. I'm sure there are more

Racing: Diddy Kong Racing (N64)

Fighting: Mortal Kombat (N64) - there's a story here. On the day my daughter was to be born (planned c-section), we were told by the hospital that they couldn't do it at the scheduled time. So, we went home, and to kill time, we played Mortal Kombat against each other for a couple of hours.

[/quote1206547594]

I recently found that game again on Steam, but I'm having trouble getting it to work correctly with newer technology. But yes, the game was an AWESOME experience... too bad the sequel hardly lived up to it successor. I would love to see a book version of the game come out. That entire story would take a few volumes to tell.
