sport, fantasy, simulation, action, and adventure games

Sport games are different. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games was realest because the Olympics was in Beijing in 2008 and the game is about you playing in the Olympic games as a characters from the Mario or Sonic games and race in 24 events based on the Olympic games. Another sport game is tiger woods PGA tour which unlike Mario and sonic at the Olympic games, its trying to be photo realistic. Another difference is tiger woods is a golf game where Mario and Sonic is races.

Simulation games try to be like real life the Sims which is were you have a home, job and a family but it doesn't cover stuff like a credit crunch or a robbery or a fire. Another simulation game would be call of duty because it simulates real war time situations like abusing your enemies or being ambushed.

fantasy games use stuff like myths, legends, wizards, dragon, kings, witches, gods etc. a fantasy game I'm playing at the moment is golden axe beast rider and what you do in this game is you go thought the story as a female character trying to get all the pieces of this golden axe that had been broken. Afro Samaria is also a Fantasy game, but not just any Fantasy game because it's Cel shaded and it's futuristic.

action and adventure games  are probable the most abundant. too human is an action adventure game as you go through the story as a god that protects the human race by defeating robots and zombies.  a brilliant action adventure game would be mass effect which is were you play as a person named shepherd and go through the Galaxy e to find Saren
