Default recommend me a computer game

here is the kind of thing i am into

final fantasy 7
zelda
shadow of the colossus
the neverhood
toonstruck
dreamfall
mario
half-life 2

so basically non-generic rpg and adventure games. a strategy game like advance wars or warcraft 3 is acceptable but it has to be something really exceptional otherwise it won't hold my attention for more than about 3 minutes

recently played lostwinds on wiiware, enjoyed it muchly

things i don't like generally are boring-ass FPS', real-time strategy and MMO's. i want a primarily single player game

you should download skulltag

-just google it-

it's an online version of doom/doom2/hexen etc etc and lots of new WADs for it - it's really fun to play even though most players are around 13 years old..

or I have a Japanese RPG I can perhaps upload (?) - it's really fucking scary but a bit weak in the storyline department.

after I realized the small amount of interaction with other players I became less excited about this game. I'll probably still buy it though... it really comes out on tuesday? I thought it was fall 2008.

Mass Effect


A hell of a third person shooter / RPG. I was expecting it to be more of a shooter, but it's a very immersive RPG at its core.

It's good, but pretty old. That's like suggesting somebody give Secret of Mana a play.

I got it used a couple years ago on amazon for like $5.00. Quite possibly the greatest enjoyment/cost ratio I've ever experienced in my life.

F all the previous suggestions. Download Worms Armageddon even if you've tried it before, it's full of strategy and also has a lot of skills you can develop in each of the schemes, especially roping. The 1 player is pretty fun and challenging for a beginner, but the online play is a ton of fun and teaches you so much more, you gotta try that.

I think if you just look for worms armageddon iso you can find it anywhere, then I guess you just need the patch at wa.team17.com.

metroid prime is a pretty kickass adventure game

it's on the gamecube so you can play it on your wii, and it'll be dirt cheap
