    JPRGs are where I spend most of my time. We usually alternate between a JRPG and another game. So we'll play a JRPG where one person controls the main character and then say a shooter, then another RPG where the other person controls player 1, followed by a platformer or something.

    Gets us through the backlog.

    RPGs and Visual Novels, at the moment.

    RPG's overall, although in recent years (what with child, work, having the attention span of an ironing board) I've gravitated more towards sports games to get that quick fix rather than settling down for an epic gaming session on an RPG.

    I spend most of my gaming time on RPGs, just because each of them requires so many hours to get through, and even more to do all the additional content. Other than that, I play fighting games and strategy games. When I was younger, it was mostly real time strategy that was my thing, but in recent years, it's basically only been Civilization. Sometimes I really feel like driving really fast around the nurburgring, so there's the racing checkbox too. I guess mario kart is fun when I have real people to play against, but that's not too often.

    RPGs and Rhythm games mostly, though I enjoy puzzle and action games as well. Kind of bored with sandbox, I am starting to appreciate more defined experience cause I just don't have the time to explore and find the fun in these types of games anymore due to other things in my life.

    I play a lot of Guild Wars 2 so MMO, but I play mainly World vs World and PvP in GW2

    I play a lot of DayZ that's 1st/3rd person shooter/ Survival Horror/ PvP

    And then Civ V which is strategy.

    I'm surprised there are so many shooters considering this is a JRPG site. For me it's RPGs and Action/Adventure, but there's no action adventure genre choice oddly.

    The first six, mainly. So far this year it has been RPGs, puzzle, survivor horror, shooters, hack and slash, action, adventure, sports, and rhythm games.

    I play mostly RPGs, action titles like Assassin's Creed or God of War, and platformers. The latter two aren't even on the list!
