GoGCast 155: The 16 Types of Video Games and Community Q&A

We all know the genres of video games which are typically attributed based on gameplay mechanics, level design and whatnot, but what about the types of games which match our moods, our lifestyle, our type of play? From the Guilty Pleasure to the Mainstay, we roll through Kotaku’s 16 types of video games and share our picks for each. Plus, we close the show by answering a few community questions asked either on Twitter or on Discord.

We would love to know which of your favourite games you feel best suit these categories. Tell us in the comments below, on Facebook or on Twitter.

This week in news: Pokémon Go Fest attendees get $1.6 million settlement after disastrous event, we have release dates for Spyro remastered, Insomniac’s Spider-Man and WoW’s Battle for Azeroth and LOTR Shadow of War completely removes loot boxes.
