What type of Video Games do you like?

Who invented a video game? Well as far as I know, that, video games didn't came suddenly. Actually there were lots of revolutions for what we see todays video games on high resolution displays and high end processors of Computers, Handheld devices and Gaming Consoles like PlayStation, Xbox etc.

Games concepts started from the days when turing machine was invented. The time when not even monitors were invented.

But it is really amazing that today we are seeing lots of varieties of games. This shows that how people around the world are loving video games even more than movies they love. Thats fantastic.

Since, there are varieties of games, it is also equally important that what kind of games are mostly played around the world. Before that let us see what kind of games are there available in the market.

Today there are following major formats of games,

• Point and click games. The best example is Day of Tentacles introduced in 1992. Today, especially on mobile handset, there are lots of points and click games to play. It is really hard to pick one good game. But to specify, Machinarium and Botanicula by Amanita Design both are best games today not only by means of art but also for a good game play.
• Pocket games like Tetris, Snake, Packman, Bomber Man, etc from classic era and Fruit Ninja, Cut The Rope, 1024 from modern era.
• 2D scrolling games like Super Mario, Contra, Elevator Action, Jungle Book, etc from early 1990s game consoles. In Computer 2D scrolling games, mostly played game was The Claw game. In mobile games around 2002 or 03 Splinter Cell, Rayman, Spiderman, etc were popular. Unfortunately as of today 2014, I found only one game LIMBO with excellent combination of art and game play. Otherwise there are very few best 2D scrolling games available like listed above. If you know such game please mention in the comments.
• 2D Isometric games like Age of Empire, Commando - Behind Enemy Lines. Today there are lots and lots of games like Age of Empire. To list them the whole page will required and may be more pages because more and more games of this kind will keep coming until the universe is alive.
• 3D Games. Most popular and many a times more expensive games. But the game play is almost realtime especially on high end gaming consoles and computers. Best examples of 3D games are like Project IGI, Recoil, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Desert Storm, Splinter Cell, Far Cry. One name to put specially is Max Payne game based on Havok physics engine. It introduced a slow motion action in computer games and a realistic cloth effects. As of today, Dec 2014, there are countless 3D games in the market.

Further, all these game are categorised in Action, Puzzle, Casual, etc. It will required separate page to discuss.

So, What is your choice of games? I personally like 2D scrolling games. They are like a story which is controlled by us.

I am an indie game developer and this is my first game Chips Factory on PlayStore.
