GameOver

GameOver - Soulbringer (c) Interplay Pentium 233, 32MB Ram, 3D Accelerator, 400MB HDD, 8x CD-ROM It's been a while since there has been a new RPG out on the store shelves. The only titles that have been released, that are worth looking at, are Fallout 2 and Baldur's Gate. See, I for one have not plummeted into the latest craze of Online Role-Playing Games. Games like Ultima Online, Asheron's Call and Everquest are the latest style of RPG's to engulf the PC's. It's a good idea too, RPG's so far dominate mainly on the PSX, but the PC can use the Internet so its advantage and add a whole new dimension to them (though how long before the consoles do this too with their Internet access). This is all fine and dandy of course for all those people who can afford the spare time required to play them, are willing to pay money every single month and who are willing to put up with lousy graphics (online multiplayer and acceptable graphics don't seem to go together it seems). For people like me, who live in Australia or outside the US, the ping times are not going to be all that much fun compared to what those in the US will get (though I hear its not too bad, its still a disadvantage). So the rest of us have to make-do with single player role-playing games. Of course, these poor sods have been completely forgotten by developers, there has been scarce few titles around and the last really good one was Fallout 2 (arguably the best RPG ever). Many people were also happy with Baldur's Gate and so was I, for the whole few days it took to complete and then never look at again. There hasn't been nearly enough good RPG's out there, but here comes Soulbringer along to save the day.
