Generic video game thread

[Goblin Dan]

I am trying to find a good video game, does any one have any suggestions? Please reply, and try to explain why you like it.

I personally like the Elder Scrolls games. (Morrowind and Oblivion.) They are really fun and unlike most games, Morrowind lets you change anything in the game, whenever you please! You can change your stats to be really high and stuff! I think it is the best game out.:smile: :smile: click on the smiley!!! I know you want to! (http://space-frog.myminicity.com/)

A good hint, my friend, lies here. (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=26)
Though good choice on Morrowind.

Which consoles do you have? I really like Residant Evil: Umbrella Chronicles for the Wii because I enjoy shooting zombies. The graphics are really good, but unless you really like improving your performance, you may find it lacks replay value.

Baldur's gate 1-2 are great

Got a 360? like giant robots?

get Armored Core 4. It is the only current-gen game with giant robots that is at all worth considering.

I have every game system, but my parents are really strict about stuff so I only get to play games about 3 hours every week before I get my privileges taken away.

If you have an Xbox 360, and you're an RPG fan, then Mass Effect is a solid choice. If you've got a good PC, then I'd reccomend The Witcher. Not as open-ended as Morrowind or Oblivion, but at least it's more morally grey than most other RPGs

It all depends on what you like to be honest, some thre best strategy games every invented is the company of heroes series (only one game and the expansion but heres hoping for more!). An amazingly beautiful shooter in the form of Crysis is a must but the system requirements generally kill the pc. If your looing for rpg then grab a copy of neverwinter nights 2 (make sure you patch up first so you dont run into the many nasty bugs). World in Conflict is another excellent strategy game with the coolest nukes....ever. If you dont mind older games, grab either the mechwarrior or mechcomander games, supurbe simulator and strategy respectively.

I'm going to have to recommend the game Gothic to you. It has nothing to do with goths. It's a fairly cool game, but unfortunately because of how amazingly sophisticated RPGs have become this game from 2001 is sometimes overlooked. However, it has an excellent story, has good gameplay, and a TON of replay value. So if you don't compare it to the huge sophisticated games like Oblivion, then you'll have lots of fun.

I have no doubt you've played it but try Knights of the Old Republic. What systems do you have? If you've got a PS2 there's Shadow of the Collosuss, God of War and the various Splinter Cell and Final Fantasy franchises just to name a few.

Planescape: Torment. 'nuff said*. TVTropes description (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlanescapeTorment).

Or, if you can't find it (which is understandable) Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters. Which has the added bonus of being freeware**. TVTropes description (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StarControl)

* Well, no. I could go on and talk about how much awesome it is, and how it's easily the best RPG game for the computer ever, but I'm not good at describing things and I won't do it any justice.

** Pimp Star Control 2 today; Juffo Wup compels you!
