Not a huge fan of the latest fps games and need a game to get hooked on for a while, only one I can think of that I haven't played is IceWind Dale, any suggestions?

Quick list of obvious ones i've played/like.

C&C (all)
Diablo (all)
Emperor Battle for Dune
Baldurs Gate
Titan Quest
Mark Of Chaos
Total War (all)
Warhammer 40k's
Battle for Middle Earth (all)
 
Played oblivion, maybe a little high spec for me at the moment, found it boring, didn't get the 'wow' factor. final fantasy.. id love to get into it, but i know nothing of the games, and dont want to play the first ones as they are a little dated.
 
Baldur's Gate 2 +ToB
Neverwinter Nights
X2/X3 (if you fancy some trading etc)
Knights of the Old Republic 1
Divine Divinity
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines

are all worth taking a look at
 
/Awaits DaveyD with "KOTOR".

After following his advice on this I found it is actually really good!
 
I second the KOTOR suggestion. Even KOTOR 2 is good but not as good as the 1st.

Just incase you dont know what KOTOR means it is Star Wars - Knights of the old Republic.

Also Boiling Point road to Hell. Its not a pure RPG but it is freeroam rpg like with leveling kinda. Its a RPG/FPS hybrid. Very very big and very very buggy without latest patches.
 
Nothing will beat playing through the whole baldurs gate series, expansion packs and all from start to finish with your own designed little guy

ahh the memories :D

try it
 
Play the Baldurs Gate series through again, from scratch. Doesn't get any better! :p

KOTOR is also very good. Temple of Elemental Evil is also worth a look at, although its very involved and difficult sometimes.
 
Baldurs Gate i never got into that much cos everything took forever to do.

Dungeon Siege games are good and Sacred isnt too bad, plus u ride horses in that.
 
Morrowind + Tribunal + Bloodmoon (aarrrrrwwwwwwooooooooo) expansion packs :D

it's like Oblivion before it got consolized, no horse riding though but there's prolly a mod for that?
 
Morrowind, probably, although I've still not played a couple of classics like Planescape Torment.

Honourable mentions to Fallout 1/2, KOTOR 1/2, and Oblivion :)
 
Although it's a bit RPG-lite I would recommend Fable: Lost Chapters if you've not played it. There's a few really nice touches in the game which sets it apart.
 
Temple of Elemental Evil - if you were into Icewind you'll love it. You absolutely have to patch it with the unofficial patches though (google 'em) as the original game was bugged beyond belief.
 
Final Fantasy games are the best RPG imo.

FF10 being the most enjoyable, till i finished it...... :( ....up to the finish i found it better then FF7, 8 & 9.
 
Neverwinter Nights (1 and 2) are both great - and I enjoyed Sacred very much as well. One title you might like to try is Anachronox - old now, but a great game that was much underrated.
