Rpg

Hi i have never played a RPG in my life, but a friend of mine told me that they are just as fun as FPS so im looking into them, what exactly do u do in a "Roll Playing Game" what do they mean by Role?

could u guys tell me your favorite RPG and tell me what you do in them?

:D thanks in advanced :D

It has nothin' to do with FPS.The best RPG games were released for the SNES (Super Nintendo Entertaiment System) console.I suggest you get an SNES emulator and some roms like: Terranigma, Zelda, Chrono Trigger ... etc.

Visit ROMnation (http://www.romnation.net) for more information and downloads.

If you are more interested in PC RPGs than do a search on this board and you will find some threads with RPG games suggestions

-----
To answer your main quesion:

A RPG (Role Playing Game) is a game where you usualy controll a character (the hero in most cases) and can talk to people, collect items, fight monsters, etc.
Most RPGs are in a third person view.
There are a few types of RPGs like:
RPG, Action/RPG, Strategy/RPG, MMORPG (Masive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game), etc.

I like Action/RPG most, couse there you can fight and there's some more action in the game as in normal RPG

Strategy/RPG is for example Warcraft III, ...

MMORPG is Everquest, World Of Warcraft, ...

I hope that helped. If not you can visit this site (http://www.rpghost.com/) for more information and RPG reviews.

I suggest you Try these 2 awsome snes rpgs to getcha started:
Chrono Trigger (time traveler, nice story)
Earthbound (modern day, but the earth is becoming taken over by another life and it gets pretty good)

I've beat them both and would say they are my favorite snes rpgs.

[Dark Ride]

Chrono Trigger is classic, but Earthbound starts to be very stupid after 5 minutes or so.I would suggest:

Terranigma
Chrono Trigger
Illusion Of Gaia (Illusion Of Time)
Soulblazer
Zelda
Final Fantasy
Star Ocean
Behamud lagoon
Tales Of Phantasia
...

[Monkeee]

get any of the final fantasy collection... they own all RPG"s :D

[gildan2020]

try neverwinter nights...its quite good

but the best is old...like diablo2, baldur's gate 2...these are real classics, u've gotta try them




ps: they're not roms, they're pc games

[silent VI]

chrono trigger then crono cross those are some of the best oldshool rpgs ever

[FuNkY CaPrIcOrN]

:D What about ACT Raiser?That was a good one also on the SNES.One of my Favorites. :D

you forgot "Secret of Evermore"
also "Harvest moon" was pretty addictive in a way back then

Zelda, Chrono Trigger.
Best damn games ever made on the SNES! Download and play them, you'll see what I'm talking about :beerchug: Oh wait, you can't forget Earthbound, it's a classic too.

[CadeLaguana]

Sorry to go off subject here but; Funky, I don't think I have ever seen you post in game world before :lol: . I know this doesn't seem necessary to mension this but...it's odd. I imagine you have posted in gameworld before but...usually when I see that sig and avatar, it's usually in the lounge or in music world. I really thought it was neccessary to pause for a second and comprehend this by posting about it. I apologize, and please, continue your conversation guys.





Man this is wierd...



I'm like wow... :blink: :o


Ahh I won't be totally off so: Yea I like rpg's...they are nice... I like them. The end.


Peace B)


EDIT: Also I thought I might add(since I'm already off the subject), I am probably the only member who posts here regulary that has been here since march of last year who still doesn't have 5 stars under my name. I wouldn't spam to get it. It would give a nice touch to the toilet paper...hmm

There should be some policy...if you are here for about a year, give em 5 stars


Ahh I need a life. Bye. B)

:D I Love Video Games.I am not into them as much as I use to.The past Year or so it has been collecting Music.

But man I grew up on the stuff.Have always been into Video Games.Just I never have the Latest or the Greatest.

I have been back to Playing Delta Force Task Force Dagger.Mainly CO OP Games on there.

Its old and not the best.But its fun.Like all the Delta Force Games. :D

[Benno]

You should have a look at Morrowind and Gothic 2, in my opinion the best RPGs :)

OML Classics (http://www.omlclassics.com/snes/)
