What are some good lesser known games you guys play, we all hear plenty about DOW, Oblivion, Total war & WoW but there are plenty of games which are more enjoyable but less known.
2 games which I have been playing a lot recently are mount and blade, which is a medieval/fantasy game based centrally around small skirmishs which play around a single player controlled character supported by AI, I just find it addictively fun on how they have worked the combat/archery/horsemanship so seemlessly and mostly balanced, the RP elements are lacking but there are a few mods out there which make it more fun, and it is a cheap game to get about $15 US when I got it, it gives you a key to download, twice (or on 2 seperate computers) with in the first month then an extra download each month if you need it.
Another game is X3 reunion, this is a sci fi based on space/gallaxy gameplay, this game is very very slow to begin with, you fly in small sectors about orbit and go through 'warpgates' to travel the universe but travelling within the systems takes alot of time I am constantly pushing the button to speed up the time to 10x. And the differances between classes of ships are quite significant so any ship of a higher class will likely own you and it takes a long long time to upgrade to the next class, but aside from that, when you are at a stage when the game isn't progressing painfully slow it is a very fun game.
These games may be well known, but the heros series are fun RPGs.
