Larian Studios Forums General Chat RPG Chat Current/near future games to buy/look forward to

I'm mostly interested in RPG's and mmorpg's but you can post any genre you want, tell us about the great games you played and look forward to play.

Personally i really enjoyed:
- WoW great experience for the time it lasted, had alot of fun with it, i think nothing else matched this one for me yet.
- Vampire the masquerade bloodlines, very enjoyable single player rpg, if you haven't played it yet and see it for a low price and you like rpg's i seriously recommend it. http://pc.ign.com/articles/567/567009p1.html
- Divine Divinity offcourse, do i need to say more?

( Oh and if you know a site with alot of usefull information on your posted games please add it in your list <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )

Well thats about it for me, i'm looking forward to your list people!

- Grotesque. I'm really interested in how it will be.

Command & Conquer: Tiberium Wars

Tomb Raider: Anniversary

Actually i'm a bit sceptic about Tiberium wars, it's the concept of tiberium sun right, is it again from westwood EA games?

I was really disapointed with C&C Generals..

You ought to mention Dragon Age. If it turns out half as good as it has potential to be it will be the best cRPG out since Vampire:TM:Bloodlines, if not Planescape:Torment...

Übereil

Actually, I'm also interested in Dragon Age. I wonder whether this is merely a bag full of air or whether it is really as good as advertised.

I agree: Generals was rubbish. Arguably the worst C&C game after Tiberian Sun.

***

I left Dragon Age off my list because I'm not sure it's 'near future'. It is my most anticipated game, though.

I'm looking forward to Supreme Commander, I played Total Annihilation a lot, found it an amazing game . And also Tiberium Wars, in some trailers I saw that the real movies are back, so hurray for that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
I started playing Deus Ex again, still a very good game . Lot's of things in Deus Ex are more standard now, but back then, pfew, multiple ways to finish levels etc, more sneaky ways, hiding in the dark, hacking computer systems, or just trying to shoot a way to your target.

Yeah i still remember myself playing Total Annihilation a long time ago, i did enjoy it alot to, only single player though, din't have internet yet <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
The RTS i enjoyed most is still Red alert 2 & Yuri's Revenge though, damn i really did play way to much on that one, let us leave it with that.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />

I understand that. They're great games. I still play 'em a bit now, honestly <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Total War are my all time favourite RTS games in terms of actual combat, but for plot, interesting characters and a great storyline, there's no beating RA2.

Dawn Of War comes close, mind - but it's still too short.

Anyone bought or played the beta of Vanguard Saga Of Heroes? I'm quite interested

I agree with Dawn of War the storyline doesn't interest me enough and the gameplay ain't that great either..

Oh and maybe some of you will find this list interesting if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=24525221
(Alot of PC games to look forward to this year)

Hey I forgot Spore! That game looks like it will really be something <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. Of course, it's EA, so it might still turn out rubbish...

Übereil

Yes, Red Alert series are very good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />. I enjoyed em a lot, nice campaign etc.
Total Annihilation, Red Alert 1 & 2, and the first 2 Age Of Empires games best RTS games ever <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />, the hours I played those games, great times.

I'm waiting for games such as spore (from Will Wright, the guy who invented the sims), the concept seem very good. Now seeing how it really turns out.
Also waiting for Heavy Rain, the new game from Quantic Dreams who also made Fahrenheit (or for our American fellows Indigo Prophecy, which I found a pleasant game, good story, really nice music)
Got to think about other games <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I'll definatly buy Spore, this game just makes me drewl! I'll have dinosaurs with opposable thumbs so fierce even "Alien" will wet his pants <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I am looking forward to Jade Empire:Special Edition, Titan Quest:The Immortal Throne(expansion), Oblivion:Shimmering Isles(expansion), Hellgate:London, and Bioshock. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

An expansion of Oblivion, really?
Surprises me a little.. was kind of disapointed with TES: Oblivion.
