Mostly the games are cross genre these days but it's still easy to figure out the main genre with almost all of them
but some like Persona 4 for example are clearly J-RPG,RPG type dungeon crawler and Dating Sim.
the dungeon crawler is not that important as it is a type of RPG but dating sim or in this case more of a interpersonal sim
is an entirely different thing.

or GTA: San Andreas it's somehow a thirdperson shooter XD (a kind of "dating" sim but not really relevant) an adventure and has parts of an rpg, it has got plenty of "Action" too
so now what would I call that ? OO

if it's hard to do or needs lots of changes then no problem if it's one genre only since we always can cope with game info but it would be nicer since then it's easier to search for the games through category

EDIT: or is it possible to use the category tags to identify the games for genres?

Ha!
Ok-ok! You've convinced me! I'll do it a little later tonight when I'm back home...
(And you can try to do it yourself for fun if you wish, but those wiki markups in templates... they do really look horrible and very confusing. It's here btw http://wiki.pcsx2.net/index.php?title=Te...ction=edit )

*click* *mouth opens* .... *mouth closes* ... I've just seen hell!!
I see genre etc but I still don't understand most of the text XD
those curly brackets for example why are there always two extra OO

and do mean by "force it" defining multiple instances of genre? (wiki entrys are entirely new for me ... so is html etc etc xD)

Genre recommendations:
Horror , Casual Games (that dogs and cats game, lol) , Sports.

Ok, quite agree on the first two but the last one is already there. Thanks!
(oh, it's soooo late already...)

Yeah, I couldn't find the list of genres

Hmm, check out this page. Especially it's edit mode rocks.

Yes, it's looking good. But is it suitable for games or is it just a common article page like PCSX2 or GSDX page? Look for my fusion of his page and have fun proposing anything yourself.

Heh
It is the REAL hell. Not only on the first look but when you know what you're doing, too. Somehow I believe this will evolve into some language because it's almost impossible to create any comlex things with this.

To anyone who's reading this: while you're watching what's new at http://wiki.pcsx2.net/wiki/PCSX2_Wiki please do some edits too. Find the game you've played lately and set it to playable (set to '2') by editing it. Every small edit will help Wiki. Please do not be afraid to edit you cannot break anything! Wikis are unbreakable but useless without your even small support. Thanks
