Survey: Favourite game type?
What is your favourite game type or genre? Im thinking of adapting the a game engine I've managed to get my hands on and expanding it to a full on game, (In C++) ill post another topic on this if i actualy get round to doing something properly with it.
So what is your favourite game genre? Action? Horror? Care to give an example of said game?

I seriously mean any shooter. I forgot to say real time (but if it wasn't it would be strategy, right?)
