Strategy games which encourage users to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate.
Extraterrestrials appear in many video games in a variety of styles. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're very similar to humans.
This concept occurs in many RPGs and Sci-Fi games. The Ancient Advanced Civilization Technology is often a giant weapon (Halo Rings, Giant of Babil, etc.) that becomes a major plot focus in the stories of these games.
A capital city is the center of trade, commerce, and government for a nation. Capital cities can be found in many strategy games.
The concept of building a single city and its respective houses/institutions (e.g. Sim City) or building cities as part of an extending empire (e.g. Civilization).
Crafting allows players to create their own items with the correct ingredients. It is used mainly in MMOs and RPGs.
A style of fast-paced melee combat in third person action-adventure games that is based off combos, chains and counters. Often involves using the environment to help subdue enemies.
Some first-person games that wish to immerse the player in the experience more will go as far as to include full body awareness, or the ability to see the player character's body when looking down.
Games which contain either animals crossed with other animals or animal/human creatures.
Non-linear level design where the player is able to freely traverse the game world and choose where and when to visit certain areas in the game.
A title only given to the most evil and corrupted of rulers.
A persistent world is a game environment that is permanent and dynamic. This is seen in many MMO's.
Video game combat in which combat actions are performed in real-time, rather than through a turn-based structure.
Space is usually empty, but sometimes it's filled with virtual death machines.
Even in the 3D era, games that featured worlds on 2D plains, or in rectangular prisms were rife, but in the last few years this has changed considerably. More and more games' environments are being mapped spherically.
The act of buying a particular good for a low price at one location, and selling it at another location for a higher price, resulting in a profit.
Games with vehicles that can be controlled. This applies to games that AREN'T focused on just driving, but just happen to have a vehicle segment or the ability to pilot one.
World Building games focus on the ability of the player to created his own little world just as he wants it. Good examples, are The Sims, Black and White, and Spore.
