What rpg should i get?

Hi

for christmas i am getting borderlands and fallout 3 goty and i hear they are both good rpgs(if you class borderlands as an rpg). But after that i am hoping to get a long rpg that has lots of hours of gameplay and has tones of replay value.This is what i was thinking.

1. elderscrolls 4: oblivion

2.dragon age orgins

3.lost odyssey

i was also thinking of final fantasy because i here there is a 13th one coming out and i would like to play a few of the older final fantasys. If you can think of any good rpgs for me to play that would be helpful. Thanks.What rpg should i get?
In terms of length I would rank them like so...



1) Oblivion

2) Lost Odyssey

3) Dragon Age



Oblivion is easily over 100 hours for a single FULL play through. That means all side quests and such. The main campaign isn't all that long but the meat and potatoes of the game is in all the extra stuff you can do. The game also has fairly high replay value since different characters can be played quite differently. I probably have close to 1000 hours in Oblivion and probably even more in the previous Elder Scrolls game.



Lost Odyssey is the most linear of the 3 but it's still very long. It would technically be longer than Oblivion IMO but there's pretty low replay value to the game. Once you've played the game once to completion playing it again is going to be more or less the same.



Dragon Age is actually pretty short as far as RPGs are concerned but again the replay value is high since different "origins" are surprisingly unique in their campaign. So a single play through is rather quick but there's enough incentive to play it 2-3 times to qualify it as a fairly long RPG.



FF13 will probably be amazing in comparable to Lost Odyssey in length. I've got it paid in full on pre-order as I'm certain that it will be good and long : ) Unfortunately we have to wait until March 9th (confirmed release date) for FF13.
if you want something thats long with alot of gameplay.. try world of warcraft.What rpg should i get?

I've never played lost odyssey but I recommend oblivion myself, great game.What rpg should i get?
Assassins Creed 2



u wont regret it
Hint: The Elder Scrolls/Oblivion series is by Bethesda, the same people who did Fallout3. Both games will easily give you 100 hours of gameplay, and are VERY well balanced, solo RPGs.



I hear Borderlands is geared more like an MMO, even though it isn't. I hear it is most definitely a team combat game, and nearly impossible to solo.
Ok I love RPG games



Fall out 3 is a great choice its brilliant

If you have a xbox 360 you have to get Mass effect 1 so you can play it before Mass effect 2 comes out. If you like old school games you have to get Knights Of The Old Republic or KOTOR as its also known its one of the best RPG I have ever played but it is a bit out dated now. So it has to be Mass Effect. You can actually bring across your saved data from the first game over to your second game when it comes out
elder scrolls 4: oblivion all the way
@Brandi - That's an MMORPG.

@Ben Dover - Good luck with that the tech specifications on that game are incredible.

@Ryan D - Not an RPG.



I would just go with Dragon Age Origins or Mass Effect. I personally didn't like Oblivion but Fallout 3 was amazing.
get oblivion. Also fallout 3 has loads of replay value
actually if you get fallout 3 game of the year and the elder scrolls oblivion game of the year depending on how you play them you can get about 500 hours each game. the people who tell you they got 75-150 hours in only did part of the game.in fallout 3 with the 5 dlc i have over 500 hours in.there are 98 unique weapons and armor to look for,there are 98 pre war books to find,94 nuka-cola quantum's,23 schematics,71 mini nukes and on and on.oblivion is the same way,there is so much to discover,unique weapons and armor,side quests,town quests and on and on.your going to love playing these 2 games and you can play them over and over with out getting bored,or at least i can.hope this helps.have fun gaming.http://www.uesp.net/wiki/oblivion:oblivi鈥?/a> and http://planetfallout.gamespy.com/wiki/fa鈥?/a>
fallout 3 and borderlands are in my opinion the best rpgs to get i havent played dragon age but that looks pretty good too
Dragon Age Origins is really good, but FF13 won't come out for another year or so.



If you want a great Final Fantasy game, take Final Fantasy VI (it's on the Super Nintendo as III) and Final Fantasy VII
