by umibonko on August 20th, 2007
OBLIVION! i don't know about the rest of the elder scrolls though...
world of warcraft was ok, but to expencive so i quit...

I always enjoyed the Hero System. You could play ANYTHING in it, much more easily than GURPS.

Best rocket propelled grenade? Well, I've always had good results with the stinger....

There is only one, possibly two best rpg's of all time. The single role playing game would be chrono trigger, if you cannot agree with that now. Agree with it in comparison to how advanced it was for its time. Think about it! Time travel, active fighting, extensive items lists, side quests like mad. One deep plot, love triangle, and combo attacks. It has all the basic means to be a great, and the best.
Never mind the genuinely lovable characters.
In my mind there is only one game that can come close too Chrono trigger in rating of best game of all time and that would suikoden 2. Active fighting. Deep plot, Large character group. Army battles. Most extensive fighting system. The game makes the player feel actually attached to the character.
So I suggest if anyone is too play a game that they havent play suikoden 2, suikoden 5, Chrono trigger. Legend of the Dragoon, or any game in the final fantasy series.

Phantasy Star Online for Dreamcast...was amazing =)

Well....I'd have to say that The Dungeons and Dragons system has been the most successful, but GURPS is rapidly gaining popularity.

Final Fantasy.. obviously. World of Warcraft is a close second I suppose.
by Avril on December 30th, 2008
The best rpg has to be the Final Fantasy series. I have all the games and I am a big fan and supporter of the game.
by Wolfgaar on November 18th, 2008
Dungeons & Dragons, without question, without argument, is the best RPG going ever and always will be.
I play D&D and World of Warcraft. The RPing in WoW sucks, but it's a fun game.

I personally liked Fable for the old xbox. although the storyline was really linear, it was fun to be able to do what ever you want. you could kick chickens! YAY.
by Red Archer on May 6th, 2008
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a great solo game. Another is an older Amiga game called Legend of Fargheil. Spent two years playing that game and still never beat it.
by Symbeline on April 6th, 2008
Shadow Hearts.
by robpanda on April 1st, 2008
It's a close between Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger in my opinion.
FF6 wins only because of Kefka.
Insane clown overthrows his leader, destroys the world, conquers it, and becomes GOD. How much more bad ass can you get?
And the heroes end up saving a ruined world.

by duuhhh on March 11th, 2008
The whole paper mario series. They are the ONLY rpgs I played.
by JordanQat on March 11th, 2008
Oblivion is the most polished, and its predecessors, especially Morrowind, are great. Gothic (3 is best, but 2 and 1 are also worthy) is the most adult seeming, in terms of actions and consequences. Two Worlds isn't bad at all for a clone. I LOVE Titan Quest and its expansion pack Immortal Throne -- best ever re-diablo-ed game of all time. Clearly, I'm unable to pick just one. It's the gemini in me...

Final Fantasy 7, brother is huge fan of RPGs, loves that game, claims it is the best of the series so far.
by good ol boy on March 8th, 2008
sorry but do you mean 'rocket propelled grenade', if so m17, if not whoops:)))
by barsoom on March 8th, 2008
As a primarily SF fan, I would rate Traveller as the best dice RPG. Although I enjoyed D&D, I really could not stop playing Traveller.
As for Computer RPGs, for me it's a toss up between the older Ultima Underworld (I and II) and the newer Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (I've always been a sucker for a dungeon crawl on computer).
by japhyryder on March 4th, 2008

ChronoTrigger is the longest running, most acclaimed, most reproduced and highest grossing RPG in existance.
(Higest grossing excluding MMORPG's)

Gothic is one of my personal favourites (1st place for gothic I and the other 2 rule too), vampire - bloodlines : the masquerade, The Witcher(pwns but my pc can't run it.. system reqs), that's all i can think of right now.
Regarding mmorpg's : Lineage2, Aion (coming soon - AWESOME), Cabal, and why not ... World of Warcraft.

It is definitely one of the best. What will Elder Scrolls 5 be called? Anyone?
by maesterthief on February 4th, 2008
are they even going to make one? I din't know!
by Anonymous on February 4th, 2008
Yeah, there has to be at least some talk of it, as oblivion blew the competition into well, oblivion! Check out the other questions about elder scrolls 4, and see what I mean. I saw one a few minutes ago.

Fantastic game. Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind for the regular x box is just as good. The graphics of coarse are not as good but the openness and freedom makes up for it. If you haven't played it then you should try to get a hold of it.
by ender1886 on April 10th, 2008
By the way, to all you talking about a number 5, Bethesda is making Fall Out next. It should be just as amazing. If you haven't heard about it then you should deff check it out.
by ender1886 on April 10th, 2008
I heard that Elder of the Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a really good game but, I haven't played it myself so I can't say Definitively. Although I have played Elder of the Scrolls III: Morrowind and it is one of my all-time-favorites!
by So-Cal Corn Husker on July 13th, 2008
When I was playing Elder of the Scrolls III: Morrowind, somebody in the game(AI) said something about 7 different provinces including Oblivion, so I figured there would be at least 7 Elder of the Scrolls games.
by So-Cal Corn Husker on July 13th, 2008
If you like Morrowind your gonna LOVE Oblivion :)
by Trajko on September 21st, 2008

I never had Xbox 360 im playing Oblivion on the pc
by Trajko on November 1st, 2008
Here, here! There is no RPG I would give up for that game... none.

I agree - except at present I can't get my copy to work. Grrr
by pawzisme on March 1st, 2009
the elder scrolls is the best ever, but it's gettin old and i need a new game. anyone?
by goodbyebag on March 1st, 2009
If you're looking for a new game, I heard Mass Effect, and Mass Effect 2 are good
by So-Cal Corn Husker on May 26th, 2009
Played Mass Effect, unfortunately it wont play anymore, I'm going to try and get Mass Effect 2 when I get a chance.
