zombies
As recently as about a year ago, if anyone had asked me whether I liked zombie games or not, I would have replied with an emphatic "hell no" and left it at that. I've never been big on horror in any form of media, but especially in games, as I find the interactive nature of the experience a little too visceral. That and I never understood how anyone can find it entertaining to be scared and stressed when they could be doing literally anything else.
There are times when I think I might be a glutton for punishment, but maybe it's the same for everyone. You see, there are a number of game genres that I will always love to play, despite the fact that I am always terribly skilled. While racing and fighting games are the finest examples of this, my other favourite genre of difficulty games would have to be the twin-stick shooter.
There once was a time between when I got my first job, and when I actually had to start paying bills. This was a time of spending money on anything at all, without responsibilities or obligation to tie you down. It was the perfect time for feeding coins into arcade cabinets, long after the arcades had gone out of fashion and jacked up the prices.
