So to me, first person games are more rpg then most rpg games. I also love FPS games do to the fact that it requires more skill from the actual player and not because of some computerized point system.

2: Real Time Strategy. Command & Conquer Tiberian series and the Homeworld series are my personal favorite RTS games. These require thinking and planning and will require you to plan out your strategy before you even play the game. Like how to best counter an enemy's maneuver with this type/mix of units...ect. You’re playing the game even when you’re not actively playing it.

3:RPGs. Now most RPGs play most along the lines of MMOs and level up gaming which is entertaining to play but tend to draw in jerks claiming that they are the best when in most cases its all based on how much time your willing to spend leveling your character on a computerized point system then the players actual skill which I find to be very annoying and frustrating. The only RPG MMOs I am willing to play are EVE, RFO (Rising Force Online) and Hell Gate London as there are fewer jerks... And also because I like space ships, Sci-fi with bio-mechanical machines, and demon based story line.
I agree. Although i might switch the order a bit. I would have it go RTS, FPS, then RPGs.
