I like action games but Rpg and strategy games are hard to go past for their replayablity and often multiplayer

I just finished Syberia. It has one of the most beautiful locations I've ever seen in a 3:rd person adventure and definately the most refreshing story line I've experienced in a game.

k:

I just started playing the sequel

It's a litte easy though...

Syberia has one of the best endings EVER in a pc game.

You'll love the sequeal. It gets harder, and there's a really sad bit in it.

I liked Syberia, and the sequel, but I didn't think they were the best adventures I've ever played, The Longest Journey was a bit better.
But they're worth your time, especially since now they go for 10-20 bucks.

Seems as though Puzzles suck.

Next in line is RPG. If there was no Adventure, I'd choose RPG.

I prefer the old Command and Conquer which had more emphasis on resource gathering. In C&C it wasn't that easy to just build a new base since a new construction yard was REALLY expensive. Not to mention buildning the defense for the new base. Gathering Tiberium became more of a escort mission. In the *Craft games I've found that resource gathering hasn't been that hard. Then again I doubt I've seen all the scenarios.

That's exactly why C&C wasn't that awesome and mind bending.
Oh, Starcraft doesn't really have rushing anymore due to patches, but with C&C it was always Tank Rush.

First person to tank Rush wins!

I always fancy myself a good RPG over anything.

That's what I liked about C&C. It was possible to turn the tide of battle by doing sabotage missions. One had to make sure the base was inpenetrable and that no one got to one's harvesters. That was exciting and fun. Strategy. [/b][/quote]
Long time ago, and you quoted me twice, :bleh: .
But that's exactly what my point was, there was no real strategy, just tank rush!

I believe there is no game that will allow you that kind of liberty like RPG's give you..everything else is just a game....in RPG's you can really indentify yourself with your character..

That only applies to free-form RPGs like Morrowind and the like. Linear RPGs, such as Diablo, focus a lot more on pushing the story forward and, implicitly, pushing the hero towards the next goal.
Not too much freedom there.

Only "real" RPG's I know of are: Daggerfall, Morrowind, Fallout 1 & 2 and Torment. Divine Divinity to some extent...
