Though the purpose of the video ("What is...") was handled right at the beginning sitting thru it was worth it because of the ending!
Coming back to the subject at hand:
Truth is that my preferences are shifting all the time but in general I never had much love for economical simulations and strategy games. There were some exceptions like the SimCity series or NAM which I played more than any other game in these genres but everything else usually is only interesting in terms of game design.
Turn-based, tactical combat in RPGs is fine but herding masses of combat units without identities is boring in my book. I always had a knack for maps, though, so perhaps that's why SimCity and some stategy games held some interest for me?
I also never had much access to sports games as sports never was my forte. When a game is good enough, like the first Tony Hawk game for example, it may be able to grab me, though. Another example would be snow boarding games (1080 Snowboarding & Cool Boarders 3) or games that are mostly racers but also fall into the extreme sports category (Sled Storm & Wave Race Blue Storm).
