also- Some turn based games and real-time strategy games. Turn based games annoy me. Not all of them, because Paper Mario is one of my favorites of all time. But I can't play Final Fantasy because of this. I don't have a lot of patience to play them.

Any shooter FPS unless it's a cool goofy joke of a game or has a great legit story appeal like XII

That's about it, other things I can get into if they're actually good. I didn't say i hate racing games because some awesome ones from genisis days

-Mindless games By this I mean the standard fighting titles that come out every year or so (Street Fighter, Capcom vs. Marvel) as well as the kiddy-type games that take no skill, make no attempt to use the graphics capabilities of next-gen systems and are marketed as "great for parties". Get that crap away from me.

-Nintendo/Wii. First off, I hate the Wii. It sucks. I don't care about the motion controls (which are still far from perfected), the system blows. Nintendo intentionally took a step back from where games were from a technological stand point just to break off on some weird tangent that they knew everyone would follow them on. The graphics are terrible, the games suck, it's just a way overrated console.

As for Nintendo itself, I hate all the fanboys they have here in America that constantly rave about how ground-breaking and "fresh" Nintendo always seems to be. They seemingly always rate out the best at industry expos and everything they do is heralded as the "next big thing" in gaming. Please. They've done nothing for the past decade but introduce "casual gaming" title after title. Just because something is huge in Japan doesn't mean it needs to be lauded in the same manner here.

my favorites are:

old skool- rush n attack, mansion of the hidden souls, mortal combat
new skool- EA NHL,Tom Clancy Hawxs, Oblivion, Skate series, GOW, COD

I agree to a point about the wii. For gaming purposes the wii sucks ass. graphics blow ass, so as someone who likes to play video games it sucks. Now for groups of people...especially me being married, its pretty fun to play in large groups while being intoxicated.....that is the only time i boot the wii up.

That's exactly my point. I'm not saying that the Wii isn't or can't be fun, but that it isn't a gaming console. Not to sound too much like that PS3 ad-man at E3, but gaming has become it's own lifestyle genre, separate from the entertainment sub-group it used to be. Just like how not all rhyming put to a beat is considered rap/hip-hop, not all interactive video consoles are gaming consoles; not all titles for those consoles are gaming titles.

I too have had fun playing Wii Sports while getting/being inebriated, but never would I call that gaming or consider the Wii a gaming console, yet so many people try to treat it as such. As an entertainment system the Wii is great and wonderful and new, but as a gaming system it just blows.
