Hmmm N64 is already old school? What does that mean for the SNES? :D

I play StarCraft: Brood War nearly every day (on real pro maps, none of that BGH/$$$$ junk)

Off and on I've been playing Grim Fandango and EarthBound for the SNES. My systems are overkill for the games I play... though not for everything else I do ;)

Super Mario RPG... best non-PC game ever made IMHO. Perhaps the best game ever developed on any platform. I keep my old SNES around pretty much solely for that game and still go back and play through it completely on occasion. Absolutely phenomenal game.

Just purchased the Morrowind expansion, Tribunal... but I havent installed it yet.
I'm also playing a bit more of Freedom Force.

Heh NicColt, I have that old pinball game. There were some pretty cool tables. I first downloaded the free table, and then I picked up the game in a bargain bin.

I've been playing Jedi Knight 2
Dungeon Siege
Resident Evil for GCN

Take a look at Shadowrun on the SNES, that was a good old RPG. The Genesis version was quite good also... their very different games. Still well worth playing if your into RPG's.

It seems that way doesn't it? I have a friend who is a MMORPG addict, real bad. Doesn't sleep much, doesn't work much just plays UO, Evercrack, and now Earth & Beyond for hours on end. I can't wait to get involved! The whole MMORPG world just fascinates me beyond belief. I've never really been into the D&D/Fantasy theme, so E&B seems interesting.

Personally I have absolytely n interest in the whole MMORPG genre... if I wanted a multiplayer RPG with a dynamic world I'd just go out and play REAL D&D 3e with a group of friends... indeed, I do weekly. Compared to that MMORPG's seem incredibly limited and offer absolutely nothing to be desired.

I don't understand their appeal at all, single player RPG's... yes that makes complete sense.
But multiplayer?
Why not go and join a D&D group, or if you don't care for D&D try White Wolf, Vampire: The Masquerade, Shadowrun or any of the numerous other RP's systems.

MMORPG = Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.

It's a game in huge worlds with several thousand people playing and interacting.

Examples: Everquest, Asheron's Call 1/2, Dark Age of Camelot, Utima Online, etc..
