Any RPG Fans out there?

[Sweet_Cigars]

Call me a nerd or what not but I started playing RPG's back when I was about 14. The good ones with pencil, paper and imagination. I love to read fantasy books as well as play a good MMORPG. But what I really miss is the old school RPG'n on paper or even in chat rooms. Anyone that shares a common love for the medieval times that may want to RP or hook up on a MMORPG just drop a line.

So... you are NOT talking about Rocket Propelled Grenades.

Just to be clear...

Maybe a black powdered gun or two.

Nerd reporting...How do I know? I first thought Role PLaying Games, not Rocket Propelled Grenades...

D&D and all the others back in the early 80s. Love them on the PC and consoles as well.

Guess I should have spelled that out for the non-RPGer's.
Role Playing Games.

I like the ones on the computer like Diablo & Baulders Gate. Any suggestions on ones that I might like that are similar?

The first one that ever got me hooked on the computer was a Mac game called Realmz.

Dungeon Siege and Neverwinter Nights...both good but have Vista compatibility problems..

Here is a list of RPG games that I played.
1.World of Warcraft
2.Diablo 1 & Diablo 2
3.Baulders Gate
4.Baulders Gate 2
5.The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
6.The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
7.Fable(Xbox Version)
There is a few others but I can't remember the names.

I am awaiting the release of Diablo 3 which will probably get me starting playing the second one again. As far as suggestions there is a ton of RPG games. I would suggest reviewing some at Gamespot. Thats the website I use anyways. Heres a link for anyone who is interested. Check out Diablo 3's website too if you haven't already.

I'm more of a First Person Shooter...

The Elder Scrolls games have been the only RPGs I've ever enjoyed. I read tons of fantasy and it seems to be the only series of games rich enough for me.

I love RPG's. I was into Everquest for a long time, I did a online MUD where I played and coded. Then I got into WoW. I wish I still had time to play WoW. Now I just stick with Console games.

[OSIRIS]

Elder Scrolls for PC and the first 3 Final Fantasy games on NES, and on my Sega I had Phantasy Star. I can't wait for the MMO Knights of the Old Republic.

Pencil and paper gamer here. I like RPGs on the PC like Icewind Dale and Balders Gate but prefer over-the-board. Still game almost every weekend - right now my group is playing EarthDawn.
