I would consider "walk along beat'em up" as a game description, while "side
scroller" which is what Super Liam is, as the game genre which is a common,
standardized, and very recognizable group of games.
Also, my name is Charles, with no e on the end. Thanks.

Hi charlese.
However that doesn't answer my points about a, average genre
classifications as you put it being not applicable to audio games, and
also the problem of where games like puppy1 vs 3D velocity fit in.
Also, I am a little confused where you and tom get this "average game
classifications from" as though there is a big list, or at least if there
is I've never found it.
While I have heard of some commonly understood general catagories, even
those are pretty fluid, for example the metroid series came about by
mixing the adventure game style of zelda, with a platform game. This gets
still more complicated if applied to audio games, ---- for example is
superliam a 2D platformer, or a walk along beat em up? a beat em up which
uses a laser gun?
Beware the grue!
Dark.
