Yep, I'm beating a dead horse and posting another one of these.

This time, instead of all-time favorites, what are your favorites of the following genres?

- MMORPGs
- RPGs (not online)
- Strategy
- Classic
- Shooters
- Simulation/Sports
- Fighting

Each should be a top five (or top whatever you want) list of its own. If you think I missed something, feel free to make another list for another genre, or split a genre I listed into two. If you'd like, feel free to say why you ranked certain games as you did, but it's not necessary if you don't want to.

**************************************************

I'll post my favorites to begin I guess. These aren't what I feel are necessarily the "best" games, but the games I personally like the most. Some of what I feel are the "best", in terms of a game, are actually lower in my lists because of this.

MMORPGs
1) Star Wars Galaxies (yeah, I know )
2) EverQuest II (very close to SWG)
3) EverQuest I (played too long to rank lower than three)
4) World of Warcraft (very good game, and '4' is still really high in my opinion)
5) Guild Wars (fun and competitive game)

RPGs (yeah, I know I'm doing more than five here)
1) Earthbound
2) Chrono Trigger
3) Zelda: Ocarina of Time (and yes, I consider this an RPG)

4) Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth
5) Age of Empires III

2) Sonic 2
3) Galaga
4) Tetris
5) Pacman

1) Medal of Honor: Allied Assault (and expansions)
2) Star Wars Battlefront II
3) Planetside (although it branches a little into the MMO genre)
4) Doom (all of them)
5) Unreal Tournament 2k4

Simulation/Sports
1) Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2
2) Gran Turismo 4
3) Madden games
4) Microsoft Flight Simulator
5) Combat Flight Simulator 3

Fighting (list is short since this isn't my big genre)

Goldeneye is never given enough credit. Without it, there would be no Halo.

EDIT: Also, without Doom there would be no Goldeneye, and without Wolfenstein there would be no Doom.

Wolfenstein is the spawn of all FPS.
