Here are Drac's (in no particular order). Being relatively new to the darkside, my list is short! I've played several others, the these are the ones good enough for a replay.

1. Zanzarah
2. Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines
3. Vampire the Masquerade Redemption
4. Diablo II
5. Fable TLC

Ana, Sacred and Sacred Plus are going to count as the same game, so you have another pick if you want. wave

BaldBob - er, you wouldn't be trying to stack the votes now, would you? lol

ok Friday the 13th struck and I am only now back on line.
Counting will start and I will talk to you soon.
We are about half way through in terms of time, and way to go Syd. Madge has certainly had a workout.
And did BaldBob fail to mention Half Life 2??

I guess someone needs to remind BaldBob about Half Life 2 (and episode 1). I'm not sure if its been mentioned yet.

No one here played Titan Quest? I vote for Titan Quest Gold, which is a bundle of Titan Quest (patched) and the Expansion Pack "Immortal Throne".

This has been the main game that I have been playing this couple of months, so that says a lot.

Better late than never!

Morrowind leads the way narrowly from Divine Divinity. Games with 5 or more include Gothic 1 and 2, Baldurs Gate 2, KOTOR 1, Fable and Neverwinter Nights.
About 110 games mentioned, including a whole heap I have never heard of.
Suprises? Perhaps Outcast with only 2 votes so far. I am sure there are others.
Kepp em coming smile

Sure, fun game. I loved my lich! Unfortunately, there are only 13 spots, so some good games just didn't quite make the list.

Thanks for the update Flotsam! wave

It's hard to get it down to only 13. Alltho most of these were on last year's list too.

No particular order.

1) Outcast
2) Unreal 2: The Awakening
3) Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
4) The Chronicles of Riddick
5) Thief Gold
6) American McGees Alice
7) Max Payne
8) Nocturne
9) No One Lives Forever
10) Splinter Cell
11) Silent Hill 2
12) Drakan: Order of the Flame
13) Doom 3

Playing Zanzarah right now and actually liking it. It's probably the closest I'll ever get to playing a game with some RPG elements in it. I'm more of just a shooter fan.

My list never really seems to change, except for the order, which is meaningless.

RPG's I will never be able to part with.

Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate2
Morrowind
Gothic
Gothic 2
Kotor
KOTOR2
Deus Ex
Thief Gold
Thief 2
Splinter Cell (the very first one)
NWN

I can't pick a thirteenth from all the other great games I have. Those 12 are my all time favourites.

Hi,
We seem to be drawing to a close so I will post final results Monday morning my time, which gives you about 36 hours if you still want to vote.
I will categorise using last years list and my own humble knowledge and research. I will leave any I don't know and maybe a mucky can fill them in.
I am seeking feedback on one thing.
At this stage I intend to count Sacred and Sacred Plus as one game, and Sacred Gold as a seperate game, given it contains the expansion Underworld. However I could be convinced Sacred Plus is different enough to be a seperate game. I haven't played them, but research suggests that it had some quests added and a few more foes, plus all the patches. Not sure that patches add enough, but perhaps the extra bits make it different enough to be considered a game in its own right?
Let me know what you think.

What are you asking, Flotsam? Sacred and Sacred Plus are identical, except that quests were corrected (they were buggy in Sacred) and just a small bit of content added. Sacred Plus was originally a free download for those who had bought Sacred, so they could play the game as it was meant to be played. When the game did well with the corrections made, it was then re-released in boxed form for retail, this time as Sacred Plus. The next release was the expansion Underworld, and then the final release was the Gold at a more economical price. When you installed the expansion, it also let you play the original game with two new characters. Did that help or not? grin
