Keep it updated?!

For me, every game that I run on my system (Celeron 400, Monster 3d <About the first 3d accelerator out there, and 4 gig hard drive run fine.

RPG's suck for consoles, the controls simply aren't made for that type of gameplay.

Take a look at Deus Ex, Half-Life, Quake/Quake2, Max Paine, No One Lives Forever...What the hell are you on if you think that comps are only good for online games.

RPG's suck for consoles?!?!

Well, first of all, i never said that comps are only good for online games. what i said was, thats the only thing they have over consoles at the moment.

Now, what are you thinking when you say, "RPG's suck for consoles, the controls simply aren't made for that type of gameplay". Zelda series, Chrono Trigger and Cross, and Final Fantasy series, are some of the best RPGs ever! But since you think console RPGs suck so much, why dont you name some really good RPGs for computer, that aren't ports of console games.

Those games magman5446 named are pretty good (or so i've heard, and played a little bit of) but take a look at games like Metal Gear Solid, Golden Eye (and Perfect Dark), and Resident Evil and then tell me consoles aren't as good.

oops, forgot about Zelda....

Personally I can't stand the Final Fantasy series, but here are some RPGS for the comp:

Diablo
Diablo II
Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate 2
Icewind Dale
Neverwinter Nights
Phantasmagoria (Old one)
Nomad
Asheron's Call
Everquest
Ultima Online


This is just a tiny portion of the RPG's for computer. There are hundreds of RPG's. I have played Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil, and they weren't bad. I like the computer version of R.E. better though.

There are so many games for computer that I can name off the top of my head that are great games, I could name hundreds.

Yeah, the games you named are probably some of the best RPGs that computer has to offer, but they aren't even that great (never heard of Neverwinter Nights, Phantasmagoria, Nomad). Sure diablo and everquest are pretty good, but the only thing that makes those games what they are is "online play".

Sure you can name hundreds of RPGs, but most of them wont compare to the awesome RPGs of console IMO.

I can also name many many more great console games.

Yes, there maybe some really awesome computer games like Half-Life and Diablo that you can't play on consoles, but I would rather play Tony Hawk 2 on a 34 inch TV hooked to a playstation than a 17 inch screen hooked to a computer.

Hey, I'm still enjoying my Atari 2600!

I'm a huge console junky. I have had just about every one out there. Right now I have my Nintendo 64, Dreamcast and PS2 hooked up. My Nes, SNes and Genesis are in the closet. Gave my PS to my nephew. My virtual boy (yep I have one) is hooked up on my other desk for when I need a break from work.

I plan on buying an X-box and Gamecube on the day they come out pretty much.

My most played system right now is definitely the dreamcast. Sonic Adventure 2 rocks.

hehahaha i didnt expect that from you. lol.
