I wouldn't put those two in the same category, really. FFT is a Tactical RPG, whereas Civ was more of a government simulation game. A good example of a Turn Based Strategy game would be Chess, or for computer games, M.A.X or X-Com.

FPS - Half-Life 2
Strategy - X-Com: UFO Defense
RPG - Disgaea
Horror - Silent Hill 2
Platforming - Crash Bandicoot 3
3D Fighting - Soul Calibur 2
2D Fighting - Guilty Gear XX #Reloaded
Vertical Shooting - Touhou 8: Imperishable Night
Puzzle - Super Puzzle Fighter
Third Person Shooter - Ghost in the Shell or Max Payne
On-the-Rails Shooter - Rez
