I'll play any game of any genre, as long as it's good.

For example I just bought Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time and Tekken 6. I'm buying Dragon Age Origins, Assassins Creed 2 and maybe Modern Warfare 2 if I can still get the Sainsburys deal. Right now I'm playing Socom Confrontation, LittleBigPlanet, Dead Space, Company of Heroes, The Witcher and I'll probably play Morrowind again.

Mostly anything. I tend not to play RTS games, however, I have little patience.

wRPG's. I love (most of) them. There's just nothing that satisfying as getting to the end of the game and compare my character to the 1st lvl guy who got killed by rats in the first episode, while killing a dragon with bare hands.

third person shooters and action platformers.

Also first person shooters in some cases.

Never was big with the RPG's since I don't like that it's optional to do the side quests and skip the main quest.
I perfer games when you pack in everything in the main story, and the only things that are left are small challenges for trophies/acheivements.

FPS and TPS are my main genres, I'm naturally proficient at them for some odd reason.

Second place goes to Westren RPG's, mainly single-player, but I'm not afraid of MMORPG's either. I can't wáit for SW:TOR.

Honourable mentions go to RTS and RTT, I úsed to be really good at them (I rocked the frak out of Age of Empires 2, like, really) but now I mostly fire them up for nostalgia sake since I started sucking at them. I think I'll buy Dawn of War 2 when I've got some spare cash though, I really enjoyed the beta even though I (again) sucked balls.

But I can play and enjoy most genres (bar a few exceptions), these are just the one's I play the most.

Urgh...

I play in the majority of game genres, not just one specific one, and can't really pick one to favour. RPG's do, however, hold a special place in the void inside my ribcage, but I pend most of my time playing shooters, Third and First.

Mine is RTS, though MBA (Multiplayer Battle Arena) is evolving from it (Heroes of Newerth, League of Legends) and thats what I really play now.

What's yours? Anything is game.

Some examples:
RPG
RTS
FPS
TPS
Adventure
Fighting
Puzzle-solving

Whatever you can think of.
Mine is FPS and RPG's. Can't get enough of them.

I don't belong to one specific genre. If a game is good I will play it.

In theory, I'll play anything that appeals to me. In practice, the majority of my game collection is plastic guitars and RPGs. There's a smattering of other stuff but that's pretty much it. I'm a pretty crap gamer, to be honest.

For the record, the next game I intend to get is plastic guitar related too.

EDIT: And yet another of my posts becomes the first on a new page. I can't believe how often that happens.

Odd, many people say RTS, while the Escapist quite happily ignores the majority of RTS games in the official content.

Mine are RTS (I've been playing them as long as I can remember) and western RPGs, Morrowind and Neverwinter Nights leading the pack.
