Been thinking about playing a RPG game. Used to play Phantasy Star back in the day and Sword of Vermillion.
I tried Dragon Age 2 but it didn't really do it for me, camera angles were pants and it was like Dynasty Warriors with a little RPG thrown in.
I've seen a few others, Final Fantasy 13 and Eternal Sonata, that may be of interest. Anyone got any suggestions? _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

If you are a fan of the Final Fantasy games, then I would highly recommend FF XIII. There is also a FF XIII(2) coming out soon. There are also a few more Square Enix games that look like they are winners. Those are... Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnant, and Star Ocean: Last Hope _________________________________________________________

A few of my mates said that the latest Final Fantasy was great but I haven't had time to look into it yet coz I got so many other games.

I heared Star Ocean was a kick ass RPG, but i never got the time to play it.. It spans over 2 discs from memory so it must be a huge game.. I don't play RPG's much since i don't have the time i used to. _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:

Star Ocean is actually 3 DVD's. It looks really nice and i like when you encounter an enemy, you go into a little fight scene rather than like with Dragon Age where you fight them there and then.
Final Fantasy looks good also. Would i be right thinking that when you fight, it's turn based?
Thinking i might go for either Star Ocean or Last Remnant. Probably Last Remnant as Star Ocean might be too long a game. _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Star Ocean is 3 Discs and Last Remnant is 2 Discs. You are right in thinking FF XIII is turn based and it goes to a separate fight scene like you mentioned instead of fighting right where you meet the enemy. I've got Last Remnant, Star Ocean, and Infinite Undiscovery all on my wishlist, so hopefully I'll have them soon. I love RPG's also. If you end up getting one of these, let me know what you think. _________________________________________________________

Hobbs, i was looking at the pre-made ones yesterday as it happens. Was gonna check it out tonight as i wasn't sure if you could make your own or could only use the pre set list. A custom one would be great, what do you need? _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Well, i am currently testing, but soon you will be able to pick a default custom card. The default one will be shown on HQ all the time in your profile and forums but you willstill be able to embed different ones at the same time if you use the other codes..

What game do you have in mind?? if you just link me to some decent quality pictures i will see what i can come up with..
TIP: Pick one with not too much action but just enough! like one character in the front with cool background. etc etc. _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:
