Foreward: No one is right in this thread, and no one is wrong. All opinions are considered subjective when it comes to their own gaming preferences.

All right. This thread is going to be a little difficult to put into clear terms. So, I'm just going to play it fast and loose on this one.

The idea for this thread came to me when I said that I preferred Dark Souls to Skyrim and Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning to WoW.

And I also said that preferred Brink to CounterStrike Go during this conversation.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bonus Rounds:

I also prefer Prototype 2 to Infamous 2. I know Infamous is the better series in terms of overall quality, but my gaming preferences still lie among the more action-oriented. I say this because P2 is more about melee combat and I2 is more about ranged combat -- the melee moves were more or less put in there for style than anything else, imho.

As a final note, I prefer Persona 4 Arena to Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

To recap:

My gaming preferences:

Dark Souls > Skyrim

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning > WoW

Brink > Counterstrike Go

Prototype 2 > Infamous 2

Persona 4: Arena > Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3

3D Fighter: Tekken > Virtua Figher > Soul Calibur > rest

HnS: Devil May Cry > Ninja Gaiden > Bayonetta > DmC = rest

I don't know what to consider this genre: MegaMan Battle Network = MegaMan Starforce > Pokemon
