Solid_Snake-4640d ago

the old republic,skyrim,mass effect 3.

with the old republic being pay monthly im gonna have to cut down on a game a month...... :(

firemassacre4640d ago

skyrim and dark souls. (*)(*)

KingDustero4640d ago

I don't get the hate on Dark Souls. It seems like every time it is mentioned with Skyrim people instantly hate on it.

I don't see why some Skyrim fans would hate on Dark Souls. The game is NOTHING like Skyrim. It is an RPG, but that is the ONLY similarity it has with Skyrim.

Anyways I loved Demon's Souls and am getting Dark Souls on day one. I have never played an ES game before, however Skyrim looks amazing and am for sure picking it up this year.

Overall I'm not a huge RPG fan, but there are a few RPGs that I really enjoy.

NoUseMerc4640d ago

Definitely. Dark Souls online sounds great. I'd love to see an RPG maker return for PSN or a similar title like Dark Cloud 3 to be made too.

villevalorox4640d ago

agree man, that what I'm most looking forward to.

ATi_Elite4640d ago

Asterphoenix12d ago

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled12d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?

I'm Replaying Skyrim (again), and So Should You

Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.

anast23d ago

I tried, but it's a poorly made game that insults its customers.

lucian22923d ago

nah, only mods make it decent, and even then it's bad, and this is after i modded for at least 3 years

Nittdarko23d ago

Funnily enough, I'm about to play it for the first time in VR with 1000 mods to make the game playable, as is the Bethesda way

The 7 Best Western RPGs: Immersive Adventures

RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.

SimpleSlave23d ago

"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!

How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

DustMan23d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
