[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"]Back in the day: - Arcade, text adventures, first person shooters, football/hockey/baseball, RPG, a tiny bit of RTS. I'd buy adventure games but never finish them or get very far. That was brought to light with <a href="http://www.oldmanmurray.com/features/77.html">this link</a> in the 2000s, but that feeling had been there for a while. (Tdarcos, if you get a chance to read that article, I think you'll enjoy it.) Today... I don't play football or hockey any longer. I hate the Madden series and they got an exclusive license. I played hockey games several times a week from like 1992 until ... 2005 or so. I just got burned out. Probably for a lifetime. I play Diamond Mind Baseball, but that doesn't have moving graphics. I like cyberpunk games, regardless of what genre of computer game they are. I'll play a FPS with a story that interests me. I can't beat anyone with RTS games, so that feeling of being a failure all the time is grating. I haven't exactly seen an adventure game that made me care about the genre again. RPGs are still, in theory, fun. Day[9] played the opener to Skyrim. I could see getting into that. The guy above me said he likes licensed games, but I think that might have been a mde-up post.
