Because i own a PC my favourate games tend to be First Person Shooters, Adventure and RPG's. I just want to know what other people prefer as i'm sure the majority will be FPS. This is to Multi Formats not just the PC.

Stratagy - Because I like games where I have to think to win.

FPS - Because they're fun, and quite involving at times.

RPGs - Not my favourite genre, but I do like playing these just to break once in a while from the stratagy and FPS titles I so often play.

There are other genre's of course, but those are the three I invest most time in.

Theres really only really two or three stratagy games that i like and they are the all time classic StarCraft (hope they make sequel) and WarCraft III and also BattleZone 2 but i don't know if that comes under the stratagy genre or FPS. probably both actually.

I love games like Everquest and Never Winter Nights but just don't have the time to play them :(
Will make time for Star Wars Galaxies when it comes out though !

The trouble I have with MMORPGs is the monthly subscription, it really does put me oof buying the game, although Galaxies does look very appealing.

I'm a fan of Star Wars games so i think i'll take a look at Galaxies, Has anyone seen the screen shots of Planetside? I think that'll do quite well being a multi-player game only.

Planetside does look good, though I think Breed could be better. Certainly looks better, graphics wise anyway.

I think Breed is released next May, and if what I here from a few other forums, Halo could be released as late as December next year! Don't know if that's true though.

To be honest though, I think Breed will be better online, seeing as that's the area the game is being developed for. No doubt I'll own both though, so it doesn't really bother me which will be better than the other.
