Is there a game you love that comes from a genre you normally hate?

Like for example, I for the most part don't care for racing games whatsoever like Gran Turismo, Need For Speed, etc. But for some reason the few times I'm at an arcade and see Star Wars Episode I Racer, I have to play at least once even though I've never finished a race (for me the arcade controls are hard, the console version I'm a little better at but not by much). I know this sounds very dumb but you all follow my logic? What about the rest of you?

I enjoy the Pokemon games which are technically JRPGs which is a genre I dislike, mostly because I don't like the anime/manga visual style.

I liked the Kingdom Hearts games, even though I hate JRPGs.

I also agree with this as well.

Yep- I fall under this category as well (to both quotes).

I also enjoyed Saints Row 2 and Red Dead Redemption, even though I've so far hated all the GTAs & that style sandbox gaming (Just Cause.. and kind of 2.)

Sure there are a few more out there, can't think right now.

Oh- World of Warcraft. I usually hate MMOs, but this is 1 I am enjoying. (And hopefully SW:TOR will be in this list as well)

Audiosurf, but I have yet to find another rhythm game I like.

Take a look at Beat Hazzard, it's a Rhythm cross Asteroids space shooter thingy o_O

I normally loath racers, though I do occasionally play Mario Kart o_O

Can I use my own songs? That's why I like Audiosurf so much.

Yepski.
The game actually runs off the songs themselves.
It's kinda hard to explain o_O

Edit: Found a steam store link with screen shots, images and such.
