That was sort of my point. When I mentioned technology, I sort of meant the lack of it :P

I don\'t remember what it was called, but the first RPG I ever played was a hosted graphical game on the original Prodigy.... remember Prodigy?  IBM\'s attempt at creating the internet?  Anway, was kindof this screen-shot advance games set in a big maze with all kinds of puzzles and traps, etc.  I think I even remember bumping into a BabbaYagga hut at one point.  Was a really sweet game and really got me hooked on fantasy and RPGs.... Wow that game had a lot of impact on my life.....

Oh, yeah, and I was playing that on an IBM PS1 with a 286 processor!! LOL! How far we\'ve come.....

I had all those cool games like \"Day of the tentacle\", \"Sam & Max hit the road\" and stuff. Either one of those or the classic \"Full Throttle\" :D

Fallout 1 and Planescape Torment must be the best RPG\'s ever :)

hmm, wasn\'t this thread about computer games, not console games???
anyway, Redmonk, I still have full throttle and day of the tentacle...
I also have the disks for sam&max, 3\"floppies, but they don\'t work, so I can\'t play it :(

hummmm... first for me was probably umm  final fantasy 5 or Secret of mana, maybe Zelda on NEs if that counts I think but yeah, AendarCallenlasse is right: Final Fantasy Seven is the best ever. (and ff7 came out on PC so if you dont have a psx thers still no excuses :P)

Anyone who gets to play it as their first game is a lucky girl/guy, no doubt its just the best, I still play through it once every year.. humm typing+drinkee not working well..   :):):P:) twah :)

Guess my first rpg like game i played was heroquest (quest for glory 1). First time i tried i hated the game, since you could die. Yes i was a real sissy then....

But then i became older and used to being slaughtered, so somehow i tried the game a second time (probably cause my brother liked to play it) and found out it was a great game.

Now i am/was playing baldurs gate 2 and before that diablo2. But with the latter im at difficulty hell at the quest where you have to fight 3 statues. Like i wasn\'t killed enough by them in nightmare. So i stopped playing, but i want to continou someday and let them feel my wrath...

Oh and Dink Smallwood is a great game anyone who thinks otherwise just can\'t appreciate the fun in chopping the heads of ducks and watching them run around bleeding all over the place. :D

If your opponent is willing to die for his cause, he and you have the same goal set in mind.

lol, I just sat down and began playing BG2 again, this time with The Darkest Day installed, and thought I\'d play it through with a shapeshifter druid, I was never really fond of druids, but they are actually quite different from my usual necromancer :P

oh yea, that was fun... especially killing that annoying duck in starting village :P

of course you could \"reproduce\" with a duck in some other part -_-

c\'mon, I know final fantasy is great, but there are MUCH better games on the pc than anything in the FF series. any of the dnd games were better, stonekeep, the ultimas, the original stronghold by SSI. why does FF have to come up in EVERY conversation about games?

final fantasy is not a pc game, whether it came out in a conversion or not. it is every bit a console game.
