PGD Recommendation Thread - Post "What game do I buy?" questions here!

i have found that fall out new vegas on xbox is best game i ever played . it has a mix of evrything, not just a shooter, but you have a story which depending how you play can change game . My question is , is there any other games like this ?chrisgreen2008

Im guessing youre kinda new to this (: .Try Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2 or any other RPG.

hey, so i'm looking for some awesome rpg or action games. I really like Oblivion (put over 200hrs into it incl. shiver isles...lame i know but its a great game) Dragon Age, Grand Theft Auto (Vice,San Andreas,gta4) Fable 1 and 2 (havent played the 3rd yet) I have a ps3 so it needs to either be a ps3 exclusive or for all platforms. I really like longer games with customization and good story lines, upgrades, leveling, etc. let me know what you think.minusblindfold5

Have you tried any of the Fallout games? They're made by Bethesda ( which made Oblivion ). They're all awesome, you should give them a try.

If you have a DS, I highly reccomend giving Pokemon B/W or Dragon Quest IX a try. Both are great RPGs you could potentially pour hundreds of hours into.

I just finished Fable 3. I have to say I loved the game- but it seemed it was over before I knew it. I got near the end where you had a year to raise enough money. I didnt realize that each time you finished a quest it skipped through the days and I went ahead and did all the quests without raising barely any money so I feel like I was cheated gameplay!! I love this game so much but am so disappointed It ended so abruptly for me. I loved how the fighting was simple- and how detailed everything was. I loved the exploration and the decision making. I also loved the fact you got to choose a spouse and even contract stds!! lol. Now I want to know what game could top it? Now what game am I going to play if I loved Fable so much?? AHHH! Someone please help me!!!kmblack53

Infamous 2 or Duke Nukem Forever?

[QUOTE="Weenski"]Hi, I have a PS3. I loved 'Uncharted 2' big time, also a big fan of RE4. what AA game do you rekon I'd like? (I dont really like AC2) I'm also after a driving or sports game (I don't do football games), is GT5 worth getting? I haven't played a lot of games so it can be old ones. Thanks.Weenski

As the Game Cube fades into the sunset. Which games were your favorites. I am sure the games will be gone after the WII 2 is brought out. I was just looking for some games worth picking up before they are gone.

Resident Evil 4, Zelda the wind Waker, Super Smash Brothers Melle, Kirby Air Ride (yeah, I loved that game), Super Mario Sunshine, the Prince of Persia games (Sands of Time, Warrior Within, Two Thrones), Zelda Collector's Edition (good luck finding it, though), Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2, Resident Evil (the REmake), Resident Evil 0 (I thought it was good at least), Zelda Twilight Princess, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, Metal Gear Solid the Twin Snakes... all i can think of off the top of my head. I highly reccomend every game on that list.

Even though it got poor reviews, I loved Shadow the Hedgehog as well. I took the time to get every ending including the special one.

How is Ghost Recon as far as shooters go?

Alsp, what are some good strategy games that deal with civilian life (law enforcement, etc.)? And don't say Civilization or Sins of a Solar Empire; I own and enjoy both immensely.

I'm looking for an game that allows you to choose your own path and to make your own character like in kotor. While also having a choose who you end up with story line, kind of like in harvest moon. Good graphics and game play preferred.eparnam

From what i here, Mass Effect may be the game you're looking for. I haven't personally played it, however, but I know that it's made by the same people who made KOTOR and you can make your own character and things like that.

Lokig for some fun and excitement..I would suggest to play Bulletstorm...Most exciting Fps ever played...I love this game and hope other people also:) I palyed this game twice

So- thanks for the people who responded to my previous post- Anyways I ended up getting The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. I have to say Im a little dissappointed in the gamplay. I can't control my character very well- I guess I really enjoyed the fact that in Fable it automatically helped me manuever or at least horizontally. I also feel the graphics are like being on a PC from a few years ago and the dialogue font/setup looks extremely old. I expected it to blow me out of the water. The environment is pretty but the characters are hideous. It took me an hour to get my "elfs" face to look somewhat attractive. I only just started but Im worried im not going to like it...any other suggestions or advice about this game?kmblack53

I'm considering buying Ar Tonelico 2 and the Shadow Hearts games. But before I do I'm curious about some things.

On average, how much do you have to grind in the Shadow Hearts games and in Ar Tonelico 2? I'm just talking about for beating the main story.

Secondly, I've heard that the third Shadow Hearts game has a much lighter tone than the first two which were almost horror-RPG's. But does the third game keep any of the feel from the other two or is it completely light-hearted?

That's all for now. Thank you.

Here is a list what i have played so far Onimusha (all games - in my opinion this is the best game ever) Devil May Cry God of War Prince of Persia Mass effect ...(can't think of them all right now Can you give some suggestions about which game/s i should also play in this genre. Things i like in my games: Blood, EPIC storyline, lots of good combat (Like Devil May Cry - awesome combat there), little magic, all in all the first games that come to your mind and say: THIS GAME HAS BLOWN MY MIND Note: I don't like shooters :plordmata

You could try out the Prince of Persia; Sands of Time trilogy from Last gen. Also, in the storyline department, I reccomedn the knights of the Old republic games. Great RPGs and good stories. Bloody games, I'd reccomend Dead Space (1 and 2.) They should satisfy your bloodlust. Hope this helps.

should get darkspore or mythos i dont know which game is better ive play both betas but im leaning toward mythos

[QUOTE="YoBrandino"]Sounds like you'd like Dante's Inferno. I just finished it and really enjoyed it. You may also want to check out the Ninja Gaiden games and possibly the Fable games.lordmata

I, like many kids, used to love Pokemon back in the day.

I was just on IGN there and saw their 100 greatest Pokemon characters. Needless to say, I was overcome with nostalgia.

I decided I want to get a Pokemon game but being out of the game for so long I'm completely unsure of which one to get. This isn't helped by the fact that there are about 100 different iterations.

I've already played the hell out of Red/Blue and Yellow so what would be the next best thing?

I'm looking for one on Gameboy, not DS.(I'm buying the cheapest possible Gameboy solely for a Pokemon game)

I'd prefer one that includes most of the original(and best) Pokemon such as Charizard, Blastoise etc.

Any ideas?

For a while now, I've been thinking about whether or not to play the Silent Hill games. Specifically, Silent Hill 1, 2, 3, and 4.

I don't really like survival horror though... but I hear this series is not a shooter, unlike Resident Evil. Is this true? I wouldn't mind playing the series if there was no focus on shooting enemies, as opposed to bashing enemies with a plank wood or something. I wouldn't mind a good scare then.

Lastly, there is the matter of obtaining said games. The first one is a PlayStation 1 game, the rest are ps2 games. Is the first one on PSN? If so, I might think about purchasing the first game and then dealing with the rest later, maybe even buying used from Amazon.

I was surfing Gamefaqs one time and came across a game called Theresia: dear Emilefor DS. I am a HUGE horror fan, and I was wondering if it's worth a purchase. I read about it, and i'm definitley interested, but I would ilke to hear it from someone who has played the game.

Looking for a good multiplayer game that isnt BF, COD or Crysis 2. Ive tried TF2 but that game's way too hard on me.Kocelot

Are there any good RTS games for the PS2, GCN, or wii? I have a sudden craving to play an RTS game, if it's PC or MAC, don't mention it, I don't have a MAC and windows vista is a piece of crap.

Can anyone recommend a good freeroam game on the PS2 that I can play casually, not day in, day out, if you know what I mean, I want something that has cheats, now I already have Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and I would like a game similar to that? If it has cheats for me to play around with, and has planes, I lurve planes in freeroams, but I can't find any, any help is appreciated!

Hey guys, so I'm a really big fan of samurai hack-and-slash games. I've played through Way of the Samurai 3 and Afro Samurai and loved them both and I'm just wondering if there are any that I'm missing out on. (Oh yeah, I also already played Dishwasher Dead Samurai :))

I'm really just looking for them on the Xbox 360. Are there any I missed?
