I've never truly grown attached to 3D games and fancy shoot-em-ups...
It's all about the multiplayer fun...

I'm still pretty big on the original (birds-eye-view) Grand Theft Auto game... Classic!

I still play my Sega Genesis and Super NES...
My girlfriend has regular NES, fully functioning!

Guess how I spend my saturday nights!

I'm old-school... Doom on PS1

C&C on PC
Metroid

I used to play the adventure games so I could map them. Can't ever seem to find the time anymore.

I agree. I'm hooked on Generals: Zero Hour right now. Renegade was terrible. Red Alert was pretty sweet too.

To answer the OPs question:

PC:
In addition to Command and Conquer, I'm big into SimCity and The Sims 2. I also enjoy Unreal Tournament, but I haven't played that in forever.

PS2:
WWE SmackDown vs. Raw, Gran Tourismo 4, and the Silent Hill series.
