Does Fallout 3 not count as an RPG? 'Cause that's what I'd vote for.73XI still says it's a shooter. I mean, you don't call Elder Scrolls IV a shooter because it's obviously more RPG-oriented than simply first-person, and you wouldn't call Fallout an RPG when it's a shooter with RPG elements.
Either Fallout 3 or Fable 2...seriously how could you even think of leaving out Fallout 3? O.o
Edit: A shooter...right. I believe it's had way more RPG elements than a shooter.
wtf is Fallout 3!? i never played 1 and 2. i've played Mass Effect thoughTiger_Raid
And your point is...? Neither have I but it doesn't prevent it from being amazing.
what about Fallout 3?jptribe_67
Even though I don't think I'll enjoy it as much as Fable 2 (not a huge RPG fan), I think Fallout 3 will be the best RPG this year. I can't believe the TC didn't put it on the list! Fallout 3 has really peaked my interest though.

It's really more of an RPG than the original Fable (probably more so than the second one as well, this is coming from a massive fan of Fable btw). It really isn't a shooter. It has more interesting role playing choices and the character leveling is more extensive.

i'm asking you what is Fallout 3, not if you played it or notHe was asking why you pointed out you have played Mass Effect (why did you?). Fallout are post-apocolyptic RPGs. The third one, being made by a different company to the first one is coming out very soon. Search for it on Gamespot if you want to know more.

i think they're very much alike. rpg's that are really shooters lol. mass effect was good. oh don't get me wrong. i love bioware. the only problem with their games are that they're too short. i think my poll was meant for real rpg's, like swords and magic[QUOTE="fkholmes"][QUOTE="Tiger_Raid"][QUOTE="Bloodymassacre"][QUOTE="Tiger_Raid"]wtf is Fallout 3!? i never played 1 and 2. i've played Mass Effect thoughTiger_Raid

RPG = Role Playing Game. Nothing to do with fantasy. Also BioWare's RPGs too short? :P you have obviously not play Baldur's Gate. An RPG is a game where you get to play a different role, not where you get swords and magic. Or did you know all of this and are just being a strange form of elitist?

Wow. They only displayed the shooting elements in videos but if you see one video they show that you can decide to save or blow a city up. You don't call that an RPG? Heck, if you murder someone in the game people will start hating you. There is also a leveling system where you can get perks. You don't call that an RPG? Fallout 3 All the Way!
Obviously Too Human.
On a serious note, Fallout 3.

Yay, another vote for Fallout 3. But on a serious note as well, I know I said Fallout 3 but like someone said before, I would have to play it first. But I PREDICT that it will be RPG of the Year.
Chalk up another write in for Fallout 3. I don't see how it's any less of an RPG than any of those listed. You create a character from scratch, explore a huge open world, complete quests for XP and rewards, can be good or evil, etc. That makes it an RPG in my book.
I personally think The Last Remnant will be the best. I don't like Fable 2 too much. I'm a JRPG fan. Now if Square Enix can make another MMORPG... :roll:Tiger_Raidu left out fallout 3
Technically... is Fable 2 even an RPG? or is it an adventure game?
I don't think it should be in the list....
it's more like a zelda game. which any true gamer knows aren't RPG's.
Lost Oddysey should get it. as it's the truest expression of an RPG. and in my opinion. the best i've played since FFX.
Now, I did just say THE BEST I'VE PLAYED. so it's still just my opinion based on what i've actually played at the moment. Though I am looking forward to playing the last remnant, Fable 2 and Fallout 3. so happy days.

You bite your tongue, young man!... In all seriousness though- the genre is dead... sad, really...
