Oh hey, I own these. Civ IV was incredibly addicting, and I had not played a game in the series before it. My best friend made me play AoE2 with her, and Starcraft I kinda grew up into playing since Blizzard games were my favourite (and some of my only) PC games in the 90's

If you own civ 4 (and the expansion pack Beyond the sword) go here NOW http://kael.civfanatics.net/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is a massive modpack that turns the game into an insanely fun dark fantasy TBS with spells, heroes, equipment, etc. Basically, once you start playing it you never play normal civ 4 again.

I like games that have RPGs elements the most with Taical RPGs being my fav of all.
Really diffcult for me to make a top 10 or something... will just list some of the series I loved instead:

Civilization, Warcraft, Starcraft, Heroes of Might and Magic, Final Fantasy, Xenosaga, Smash Bros, Command and Conquer, Star Wars Knight of the Old Replubic, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Fire Emblem, many VN's (TypeMoon works, Figure of Happines, When They Cry series, etc), and many more that I can't think of right now.

chaosprophet forgot to mention the Suikoden series. Great dialogue, plot, and cast of characters.

[chaosprophet]

oh yeah, while I only played II it was very good! There are so many great series out there, but, unfotunately, I don't have the time to play them all.

[Fate]

You do have time actually. It's just utilized for other matters.

[chaosprophet]

Well even if I only concentrated on my free time playing games I wouldn't have the time to play all games I'm interested on, which is a lot. But yeah of course, love games but love other things too.

[Fate]

I express disdain on no more Gamecube games being produced these days.

[chaosprophet]

Well at least the GC game I care the most for is Fire Emblem, and fortunately I was able to buy it after a long time searching for it.

[Fate]

Everything's moved over to the Wii. Eh new generation.
