Ah yes the favorite gamegenres, I like quite a lot of games though, sometimes i like to spend time in it, but mostly i like a game wich you can pick up or leave alone easily.
I usually like a good FPS game without too many strings of realism attached, halflife2, doom3, FEAR, TRON 2.0, wolfenstein: enemy territory(online only) but generally they have to have good atmosphere for me to catch on
Arcade-ish style games can entertain me for hours, burnout3 for example, most people call it a racer but cmon it's mostly about seeing things go boom XD the learning curve is low and the gameplay is great! So i call it an arcade type.
Fighters for me should be 2D, the gameplay is just more fun than the 3D (button-bashing or button sequence mastering) kind of fighting games with the exception of DBZ: budokai 3, i used to watch DBZ when i was younger yeah but that doesn't baise my opinion about this game, it really is a good fighting game.
Also the survival horror genre takes my liking but only the silent hill series actually, it's just so twisted and there's hardly any ranged weapons to keep the nasty beasts away from you. I like the intensity of it.
As for party games i like those too, examples: supersmash brothers, GUITAR HERO, and even eye-toy but DDR is a bit too energetic in my opinion, I prefer dancing on a real technofest :P
I've also played a fair ammount of RTS and platformers, I like them yeah but just not as much as the ones mentioned above.
One exception to RTS genre though is dawn of war: the dark crusade wich i've played recently. That game really makes me go: "BWUHAHA, man look at 'm go!" Sometimes it's even so fun watching the battle field that I forget about sending in some reinforcements or give them more orders. Don't play it when you're in need of relaxing, as a commander you're constantly kept busy.

I like lots of genres, but lately I've been mostly into strategy, car racing sims and single player RPGs.   I like a good action FPS as well, F.E.A.R is the my favourite one of the most recent.

i love FPS. They can be engaging as a RPG but you get the satisfaction of head shots or unbelievable feats regularly which just make my day.

Loving the halo 3 beta atm ...

I find hack/slash and RTS's be the best game genres.

I have to say that i am a strange person so:

I LOVE

rhythm & dancing games such as DDR, and beatmaniaIIDX
racing games (the ones that are not too technical) love burnout!!
rpg's with good stories like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
fighting games also not too technical (big fan os Marvel vs. capcom 2... too     bad they never made out the 3..

I enjoy.. but not to fancy

fps.. half-life 2 rulez
graphic adventures.. fan of the longest journey, and dreamfall

I can't stand

strict simulators like some flight simulators
games without story... or not good enough to dispose of soty
