As long as they don't go anything like Fallout 3 (such a *****ing terrible game), this is fine by me.

I just spent several days helping a pair of friends troubleshoot System Shock 2. I kept telling them 'Don't worry, it'll be worth it! Trust me!'



It did not disappoint.



Looking Glass... I know you're 2k Games now, and I know you're working on Bioshock 2 and 3... But could you throw us die-hards a bone and re-vamp System Shock 1 and 2 with an updated engine? Maybe even throw in that 3rd game that EA tried to screw up?



I was also pleased to hear that interest in Deus Ex 3 has been somewhat revived thanks to Squeenix's takeover of Eidos. DO IT. Make a cooperative multiplayer. Recreate the experience of the original as best you can and add co-op, and the gaming world will beat a path to your door.

he just figured that out? wow cliff ur a genius. i guess maybe borderlands is gonna change a lot of things

i mean, they aren't true rpg's, but they are part of the broad spectrum or whatever. at it's core, an rpg is a game where characters level up and there is a lot of customization.

it's just difficult these days i think to make an rpg with our technology. it is just very time consuming or else it'd be crap in today's standards

you do know that rpgs started as some dudes with dice and an their imaginations?



so, technically, any video game with rpg elements is butchering rpgs; even final fantasy 1

I would have to agree. Theres games that are RPG like... but they dont quite feel like an RPG. Out of all the games ive been playing lately, the only one that felt like a real RPG was Neverwinter Nights 2. Btw, Fallout 3 was an amazing game IMO, I spent way too many countless hours and going to sleep at 5am on that game. If a game can make you stay up until 5am every night, I think it counts as an amazing game (personal opinion)

IMO, rpg is a wide category. heck, even racing games that provide arcade-ish upgrades is considered an rpg, u play a role of a tuner-class, or muscle-class etc etc.



On a side note, FO3 is cool, although not as large as oblivion (largest single-player rpg ever, lol) and the fps version of it is kinda nice addition (although invites hate from some purists)



there is also so many different interpretation of rpgs, like wizard of the coast rules, and jrpgs each have their own rule (or gameplay), although imo the ones mostly following the 'origin of rpg' right now is ad+d-ish games like nwn2.

@joebo19x



Yes, I know it is my opinion.



Also in my opinion, The Elder Scrolls series is great.

truk everything your trying to say makes no cents.



1. i never said The old bored games are NOT RPG but that does not mean a Video Game is not a RPG as it follows the same Rules for being a RPG



2. if you can't simply understand that then I don't know what to tell you.



3. NO picking the so called right Weapon in Bioshock is not called STRATEGY or TATICAL SOLUTION, Hell you can beat that game with the *****ing handgun if your skilled. Unlike with RPG games where you MUST pick the right stuff on the right guys.



I can only guess that your maybe 16 or around that age thus why you don't fully understand real meaning of RPG, But yea i was never attacking you or what you think about games I was only stating my Opinion of the matter.

"1. i never said The old bored games are NOT RPG but that does not mean a Video Game is not a RPG as it follows the same Rules for being a RPG"



ummm yeah, again, how is your "rpg" more of an rpg??? if you say it's because of strategy, tactics, finding the right combonation of items to beat the bad guy, i'm going to say this again, BIIIIIIIOOOOOOO OOSSSSHHHHHHOOO OOOCCCCKKKKK! and i dont care if it is possible to just beat the game with the handgun, which would probably be about the hardest thing cause, have you ever played bioshock? try beating a big daddy with just a handgun; i'm sure you'll find that you run out of bullets really quick. and you know what, that means *****, cause i could say that you could beat any of the final fantasies with the original weapons. hell, i beat final fantasy 7 using the joke weapons without auto-phoenix and knights of the round. so youre argument is fail.



"I can only guess that your maybe 16 or around that age thus why you don't fully understand real meaning of RPG, But yea i was never attacking you or what you think about games I was only stating my Opinion of the matter."



yeah cause we all know age determines your knowledge of videogames or of anything for that matter... ugh...and if that isnt the biggest tool comment i've ever seen...keep eating what they feed you



btw, rpg+role playing game. role playing games are games where one takes a role of a character and controls them based on specific characteristics of the character and laws of the governing world where focus is made on character development.
