Video game genres that you just can't get into

We love games here, but it's hard to love every game genre out there. We all have our comfort zones.

First Person Shooters: I just can't get into this genre. Especially military shooters such as CoD and MoH. It's odd because a game where you're a soldier shooting enemies sounds pretty good on paper, but turns out it's actually boring and annoying. I also cant' deny that I have trouble with the controls in this kind of games. I miss my target a lot in shooting games and end up wasting lots of ammo. It's frustrating

I don't mind shooters like Borderlands 2 much, however. And I also liked Deus EX: Human Revolution, but that's more of an RPG + Shooter than a straight up shooter. besides, stealth is a big part of it and you're encouraged to avoid killing people. If it wasn't for the stupid boss fights, I wouldn't even pick up a gun in this game.

Most racing games: I LOVE racing games such as F-Zero and Mario Kart, but games like Burnout and Need for Speed? Forget it. They bore me and I'm not a car enthusiast, which seems to be blasphemous for a straight guy.

Sports simulators: Ok, the occasional FIFA or PES match against a friend is fine. But this type of games gets old fast and it's a waste of time to buy FIFA every year. It feels like the same game and you're basically paying full price for updated rosters.I guess with online being bigger than ever nowadays, it's not much of a waste of cash to buy the yearly instalment of FIFA, but even back in the early-2000s people were doing that.

These games just get old fast. And nowadays, no way in hell do I hate the patience to play a whole season all the way through. I much prefer a series like Football Manager where you're the coach. Now that one is addicting as hell.

And that's about it. What about you? What are the video game genres that you cant' get into?

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"
