I'd like to hear of what are your favorite types of (electronic) games. Since I don't necessarily know what each particular game's genre is, try to give a summary. Some games are multiple classes, the Half-Life 2 series are both puzzle and shooter, so I created a new class for both
Simple Strategy: Tic-Tac-Toe, Chess
Simulated 3D shooter: Doom, Duke Nukem 3D (Simulated 3d doesn't allow real "level above level")
Actual 3D shooter: Quake 1, 2, 3, possibly Doom 3, Descent, Team Fortress, Counter-Strike
Puzzle-Based (2d or 3d): Portal, Portal the Flash Game, Super Mario 64, Tetris
Both Puzzle and 3D shooter: Half Life 2, Half-Life 2 Episode 1, HL2 Ep 2, Max Payne
Turn-Based: Starcraft 2
Construction or world building: (Additional or third-party capability in Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, user-made maps for Half-Life 2, Ep1, Ep 2);
Actual purpose of game: Sim City; Garry's Mod for Half-Life 2, Portal or Counter-Strike; The Sims 2 and 3 and add-on packs;
So, do you have any games that fall into these classes or are there other ones and what games do you like?
