Here you go Hive you lazy shit [img]tongue.gif[/img] I'll give you QFG1 out of the kindness of my... ahem... cold and icy heart.

QFG1 Download

The rest you should be able to get off a google search, but if you DO find QFG5, LET ME KNOW! It is eluding me something severe.

Neverwinter Nights 2 is under development.

The sequel to Morrowind, Oblivion, is another game to keep an eye on. It probably wont be out until earliest around Christmas.

it's a shame they finished on the BG2 storyline... but it was a good run.. it was also a shame that they didn't include more sub-quests and stuff for BG2.
Currently I am downloading every modification there is and playing it again and again, with new NPC's challenges and experiences. It's great, really is.

I wouldn't mind another game building on the world of Forgotten Realms.. there's enough text to go on, so if they'd only get started...

I thought vampire : bloodlines was an excellent game, and it's a pity they didn't finish work on the engine.

I have only three words: Seal of Evil.

ps. And be thankful if you are not a space sim fan - and very thankful if you are not a fan of space sims with newtonian flight model (I want my Independence War 3! )

Yah LadyZ I know what you mean. I am playing Baldur's Gate again and the graphics are 4 years old and suit me just fine.

This is not just with RPG's, I still think System Shock 2 is one of the greatest Shooter-type games of all time. So was Thief for that matter.

I can only hope in the future that game companies step up once again and make some quality titles where gameplay is taken seriously and it's not just an interactive graphics demo...I play Halo 2 as well as Ghost Recon online for Xbox and I enjoy them but computer games can be so much more sophisticated and I hope companies stop dumbing-down their releases for PC games so that they can be ported to console. Console games are one type of experience and IMO computer games like RPG's strategy, etc. should be another...just my 2 cents.
Agree totally. Big difference in gaming. To me there is nothing like an RPG, with a good 6 characters, that you can pick and choose from as you go along, and equip them however you wish, and go into battle and be able to pause and direct each character what you want them to do. You hit him, you hit him, you freeze him, you do Magic Missile! hee!, you toss some Fire Arrows, you move the frik out of the way cause you are waaay to close... then unpause and watch and see what happens [img]smile.gif[/img] And of course you can always pause again and redirect the characters accordingly. And it's easily done with a keyboard and mouse. Good times. [img]smile.gif[/img]
