I realize a lot of the games today are cross genre, but IF you had to chose a "pure" one of the above which one would it be?

I chose adventure. The best in my opinion is adventure rpg like Fallout. But I guess that if Fallout had to be put in one genre it would be rpg. But what drew me into gaming was playing adventure game...

I'd probably choose adventure for me, one of my favourite genres I like playing, especially some of the oldies, although I'm a big action fan as well.

It just had to be "other".

I'm obviously not the only one, but I love to be surprised, to see genres mixed, to see something new, so... I like the stuff that doesn't fit in.

I saw you mentioned The Settlers of Katan. I got this game, but haven't played it yet (got it a while back, but hadn't the time for it). Is it any good? I'm considering an uploda, but I'd really like somebody else to review it...

Oh BTW - I chose Adventures

Adventure all the way. Sure I do adore plenty of FPSes and platformer titles of the old school but my heart will always belong to the point and click genre. <3
