<p>Wow is... bad. Diablo II all the way.</p>
<p>As if Diablo II is much better? :p</p>
<p>Haha, I love what this thread's turned into...</p>
<p>Diablo II's cool, though I've never played it online, thankfully. Just beating the game on my lonely own was enough. Anyone excited for the next one, btw? It looks amazing!</p>
<p>Yeah dude D3 is going to be bomb.</p>
<p>SC2 > D3.</p>
<p>and I play WoW (be assured I didn't pay a thing, and I'm not rich), I admit I'm semi-addicted but it's not like I lose my social life, become obese or anything and lose everything lol.</p>
<p>just another hobby.</p>
<p>Not really a fan of SC2...I tend to prefer fantasy-type RPGs. My all-time RPG favorite is the Witcher, with Elder Scrolls: Oblivion coming in as a close second. Right now I'm just re-playing NWN I (old, I know, but I haven't played it in ages)</p>
<p>I tried playing WoW once and I just couldn't stand the crappy, crappy graphics and the annoying people.</p>
<p>Those are pretty good, but nowhere close to SC for me if you're really good at strategy games and can...move your fingers fast. FPS's are good as well, except CS bores me now.

LOL@ the first part...well, it's hard to say since it's different for everyone, but I've never heard of anyone that hated WoW, let alone for those reasons. I dunno; I have a knack for games and I have high levels so it's really fun for me to play. about the second part, yeah, lots of those kinds of games have annoying noobs...evidenced by over 95% of online PC games I've played (which literally amount to more than 50 at ease).</p>
<p>EDIT: how would you know if you don't prefer SC2, it's not even OUT yet!</p>
<p>Oh, I played SC a long time ago, I guess I assumed it was the second one. Didn't really like that one so much - it was my brother's game.</p>
<p>lol i thought you guys were talking about soul caliber for a while.</p>
<p>wasn't a major fan of the witcher, the main character was a bit too much of a womanizer for me. oblivion was fantastic, though.</p>
<p>also, I will turn down Harvard for Fallout 3.</p>
<p>As for FPS, have you played Gears of War? My bro (who is an avid FPS player) loves that game to no end. I'm not much of a fan, but if you're into that kind of thing, I guess GoW is pretty good.</p>
<p>"the main character was a bit too much of a womanizer for me."</p>
<p>Haha, that was the part I liked. Maybe that's cause I'm a girl :)
My other favorite parts of the game were the storyline (simply amazing for an RPG - not banal like the majority of them coughoblivioncough), the dialogues, and the fighting dynamics. Oooh, so much blood!!! </p>
<p>Oblivion was amazing because you could do anything in that game. I loved that kind of freedom.</p>
<p>I don't really like Fallout because it's turn-based (at least it was in whatever version I played). I like games with lots of dynamics.</p>
<p>FPS's are pretty easy, I know Gears of War, it's decent. Not my best/favorite, but will do sometimes. </p>

LOL SOUL CALIBER are you serious? oblivion was a decent game -5 months played.
Turn-based ones are good with GBA games like FE2, FFtactics, AW2, etc...and maybe doses of PS2 and those sorts of gaming consoles. Yes, I use emulators...and I still do GBA games once in a while, especially pokemon. My scope of gaming extends too far...lol.</p>
<p>To keep the topic somewhat relevant btw: I wouldn't know what I'll turn Harvard down for, but let's just wait and see the actual results later and the acceptance/rejection letters to make a decision...won't be happening in a long while.</p>
<p>^^Haha, I almost forgot what this thread was about in the first place. Yeah, like I said before, I wouldn't turn H down for anything, even more so after I saw the campus. </p>
<p>Before I received my college decisions, I never came to this board, btw. I don't know what it was...I guess I was scared.</p>
<p>RPGs are horrible...anyone who is truly made of win knows that MGS is where it's at.</p>
<p>Isn't knowing you'll be going to the same college as STREICH a good enough reason to prevent a 2013er - 2016er from turning down H?</p>
<p>(and the fact that only on the harvard forum will a thread evolve into a videogame discussion topic)</p>

bleh, your view of gaming is so myopic and limited it's not even funny. MGS is like the only game you've ever played or known, there's a lot of better FPS's out there. You also haven't played many good RPG's and you don't seem to be much of a gamer. lol.</p>
<p>EDIT: so true about the turning into video game though...somehow olgita's WoW forums decided it.</p>
<p>MGS isn't an FPS. All I said was that RPGs are fail (I've played more than enough earlier in my life to know), not other genres...you're right about me not being a hardcore gamer though. I'll settle for MGO, which is more entertaining than running through hundreds of games just for the hell of it.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm sorry, it's a stealth-action. I was temporarily confused. Either way, I don't run games for the hell of it lol, I just have a plethora of games that I've played and continue to play. I guess you could classify me as hardcore, although that makes it sound like games are the only things I do, I'm obese, and I have no social life... :(</p>
<p>I've actually played MGS4 at my friend's the past week. It was really good, actually. I unfortunately don't own a PS3...</p>
<p>EDIT: There are a lot of good RPG's out there, maybe you just haven't played it or it's not your style.</p>
