What influences your gaming purchases the most? Select two.
__ Cool Factor (i.e. Max Payne’s Bullet Time)
__ Topic (includes era, licenses (Star Trek), franchises (Resident Evil)
__ Promotions (TV ads, game mag ads, promotional stunts, game prominently displayed in store)
__ Genre (real-time strategy, etc)
__ Publisher/developer
Do you believe the publisher (Infogrames, EA, etc.) or the developer (Blizzard, etc) has a greater impact on how good the game is?
If you buy a stinker from a publisher will you buy a subsequent game from the same publisher?
What is the favorite game you have played in the last 24 months? Why?
Will you buy a game on impulse if it is connected with a license, such as Star Trek and Star Wars, which you enjoy?
Does the game’s genre strongly influence your purchase?
What is your favorite genre?
If you read a glowing review, will you buy the game?

Status : Online | Greetings,
Done it... I really doubt adventure games will take the top places... now-a-days everyone rushes for RPG's or 1st person shooters Adventure/Point'n'Click were always may favourite, although I'm a big fan of Unreal Tournament... I even got in a clan . But oddly as it may seem that kind of games don't impress me at all... I haven't quite figured out how I like UT so much! One thing I know for shure... adventure games are the best
