    When a game clearly fits into a single category it is best to place it in that category and no others. When a game is vague in what genre it belongs in, it is then fine to place it into two separate categories.

    Dead Space is a good example. While it has many action/adventure qualities about it such as puzzles and a little platforming, it is also obviously a shooter. Neither genre really defines the game much more than the other.

    So is FarCry in, also, Dead Space is more of An A/A. Trust me.

    I would personally place FarCry in the shooters category. However, this thread belongs to Randle, and if he chooses to accept it then so be it.

    And I looked around and most places say Dead Space is an Action/Adventure game and not a shooter.

    Most places consider games like FF7 to be RPGS, so what.
