Just completed Mass Effect which I throughly enjoyed so i'm looking for other titles of a similar vein. Very much into RPG and Action-RPG, something with a decent storyline to follow. Not interested in FPS and such so let me know your thoughts :)

I dont know if you like racing games (for the xbox) but I really did enjoy Project Gotham 4 and Dirt :)

(I also like 'BulletWitch tough, wich is rated as quite crap =x )

Have you ever played 'Kameo'? its a good game (well, not as much 'rpg', it does more feel like banjo kazooi or donkeykong for the N64 :eek: )

only driving game thats interested me is the burnout series, i have burnout paradise which is good for a bit of pick up and play from time to time. I do have Kameo here too, that came with the xbox which i've played for a bit, again its quite good for short periods of distraction.

However i really am one for getting immersed in a game and its storyline, to give you an example the games I have played to completion over the years are the likes of the final fantasy series, fable, neverwinter nights, oblivion, ultima series etc. So i'm really on the hunt for something RPG based. So far as i understand it Mass Effect is the pinnacle of that on the 360 currently so not sure if i will find anything to compare, until Fable 2 is released of course :)

Mass Effect is pretty much alone out there in M$ console land..

Lost Odyssey? Majority of the reviews are pretty high, citing story, immersion, traditional RPG elements as high points, length and JRGP roots being feasible low points. Released 2008.

Assasins Creed is really good from what i've heard, but its no rpg :(


I have Two Worlds for the pc (wich is also released for the xbox360) and I like it. (its a rpg)

I've been doing a bit of poking on gamespy, and these are games I found (wich looked rather prommising :eek: )

Sacred 2 - http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/sacred-ii/855091p1.html (Q2 2008 )
Fable 2 - http://xbox360.gamespy.com/xbox-360/fable-2/853266p1.html (Q3 2008 tough :( )

sadly, there dont seem to be a load of rpg's beeing released lately/anytime soon.

tough, a game i can only reccomend would be Tomb Raider: anniversary, tough, i suppose you gotta like that kind of game too

OOOOOO kameo was so lame. Bioshock is good if you like story line and mood. If you dont like shooters hmmmm but you like rpg's... im stumped :(. And i heard 2 worlds got a 60 in most reviews.

i'll probably wait for assasins creed on the pc to be honest, completed Bioshock on there already so no point in getting it for 360 too.

Lost odyssey has had some good reviews so will take a look at that one :)

Assasins creed is good, but in my opinion lacks the freedom that the game needs. your guide through most of it. for example you can only eavesdrop when it tells you to, and can only pickpocket when it tells you too.

Gta 4 is what you want for your next 360 game :)

most likely will get GTA4 when it comes out but have a little wait for that yet so looking for something in the interim

Oblivion. I know it's old - but it hasn't been mentioned, and besides, it is a fantastic RPG. The best out there.

Well, you are only interested in Burnout if it falls under "Racing" but I can definately recommend you Forza Motorsport 2 if you ever feel like playing a racing game. ;)

Is that the game were you walk around as that gay looking alien? i didn't realy like it to much. YOu could always get overlord but i didn't like it that much but gets like an 85 in all reviews.

Forza Motorsport 2 is awesome, definitely one of the best racing games for the 360.

Well i have just finished Lost Odyssey, absolutely fantastic game and an utter epic of one too! Final save shows me as having clocked up around 70 hours of gameplay on it, thats what I call value for money.

So off the back of that and going by my original post is there anything new out worth getting in the RPG kind of line. Please no racing/FPS etc, really not my thing :)
