More stuff like puzzle detective mysteries and instant action games, right? Maybe the occasional empire building strategy game in order to get your power play on.

Primarily real-time strategy games, fighting games, old platform games and RPGs. Zelda is about as close as I get to the concept of puzzle games.

Puzzles can be bloody frustrating, I tend to stay away from such games.
