There are a couple of games that you could call similar. When I look back at my gaming life, you could say that I have gone through a few trends. In my early stages of gaming in elementary school I played mostly games like Legend of Zelda, super smash bros melee, and Soul caliber 2. These games had an art style that I would not define as real but more playful and fun. The game generals were all different but they all seemed to have a lot of action and adventure in them. Then I went to high school and quickly found myself into FPS games. Halo 3 became my gaming world for most of high school as I was captured by the insanely competitive multiplayer. This was the time when Halo 3 was big in MLG (major league gaming) and I found myself caught up in the competitive scene. When I came to university I found that I started to appreciate the strategic part of games. I also found that I liked the stealth aspects of games as it was a different experience from the fast pace shooting that I was use to.

I have discovered that as I grow and evolve as a gamer, I started to appreciate different aspects of games. If you were to look at my favorite game list and try to find some similarities you would find that a lot of the games have a lot of action in them, I have to say that a game can keep my attention if it has good story and a lot of action to keep me going. I also like games that are highly competitive as I am a highly competitive person. Halo 3 and Shadowrun are very competitive mulitplayer games. I would practice Soul caliber so I could beat my friends and hold bragging right. The same could be said for Trials HD as I would play levels until I had the best run out of my friends.
