How have your tastes in gaming changed over the years?
My first experience with video games was Super Mario Bros. when I was 2 or 3. As I've grown, I've noticed that my tastes slowly change a bit every few years or so. I was a huge Mario fan until I was around 6 or 7, when I started getting into Zelda and Dragon Quest/Warrior. Then came Pokémon, and then, Kingdom Hearts, which pretty much was my introduction to Final Fantasy. FF consumed my life all the way through high school, until Necronopticous introduced me to shmups, and I've been into that ever since. However, I still like a lot of the games I used to, and find that a lot of them have great nostalgic value, as well.
What about you guys?

I like shooters more. I guess because before a shooter game was pretty crappy. Now they are so much more refined that I have a lot more fun. Otherwise i was mainly RPG's. And with the introductions of MMO's i've been hooked with those since everquest :P

I don't think my tastes have changed much, but I have been more and more exposed to different genres, expanding the realm of types of games U like. I never liked FPS games, but recently I have enjoyed playing games like online co-op in Resistance 2, Borderlands and MAG. I was never into Mega Man back in the day, but in 2005 when I tried MMX for the first time I loved it and have become a huge Mega Man fan.
But I still love all the games I used to.

Nothing at all with me. If it's good I'll play it.

Not a lot has changed. I don't really like First Person Shooters as much as used to. I was never really into them in the first place.
I guess for a timeline of over all interests, it'd go something like Platformers>RPGs>Tactical>Metroidvania>Sandbox>Fighters

I... really don't think my tastes have changed at all. xD
Mario games, RPGs, simulators, RTS... Yeah I like the same stuff. I really do.

I'm a huge nostalgiafag, so I don't think my tastes have changed or even grown. Lol.
I pretty much like everything besides sports games.

I'll play most anything except RTS games.

Well back in the day everybody played a lot of things, it was harder to be genre specific back then maybe. A couple years ago I was mostly into RPG's with some FPS and RTS on the PC. Lately I've really been into FPS on the PS3, and I've also gotten into racing like Motorstorm and Gran Turismo. I've also really gotten back into action adventure games, I would absolutely say I'm more open to different genres now, RPG's are probably the least I've played.

I've always enjoyed pretty much any game from almost any genre (except for dating sims). It's been that way ever since I started. I started with Mario Kart 64 though I think and then progressed into Metal Gear Solid, then Final Fantasy, then from there every other major genre.
Although I've really been feeling ravenous to play some fighting games lately.

I used to play a lot more Action Adventure games than I do now. I'm also sort of transitioning to Western styled RPGs as opposed to the JRPGs I've been obsessing over for about 3/4 of my life span.
