Unlike most of the veteran adventure gamers on this forum, I grew up playing action platformers on the Master system and Megadrive before adventures.

Currently, I play action adventures such as Psychonauts, Tomb Raider Legends, Silent Hill and Shadow of the Colossus. I've just bought Okami and I'll play that as soon as I feel like it. I like these games as they tend to be the most involving games in gameplay and story, and generally not mindlessly violent. That being said I do play the odd FPS game when they have beautiful, bright locations (i.e. Farcry) and I love the Max Payne games.

I love most multiplayer Nintendo gamecube/ Wii games - Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Monkey Ball Banana Blitz.

I used to play RPGs before adventure games, but I'm a person who loves original storytelling, and most RPGs are too cliched so I switched to AGs. The last few RPGs I played were Stella Deus, Final Fantasy Tactics (PSX) and Disgaea: Hour of Darkness (and its crappy sequel).
