I play all of these on a semi-regular basis (and don't forget Planescape!) - however, they're not old.

I also play Bard's Tale 1-3 and Ultima 1-8 every once in a while (even Wasteland if I feel like heading back to the Fallout source).

Vampire the masquerade bloodlines and it's 'predecessor' vampire the masquerade redemption are also good games.

I actually just reinstalled Planescape, I realized I hadn't played the game in a few years. About an hour or two in I thought "Man, I really need to play Baldur's Gate again..". So now, I'm working through the whole BG series again with the Baldur's Gate Trilogy mod and a few select others to shake things up, then I'll go back and finish up planescape.

Also, it's been quite a while since I played Arcanum..

None... Before I cast my vote tho, what does it take to call an RPG "old"? So I know what I have to work with =p.
Just vote for Baldur's Gate 2 and be done with it.

I also thing I wouldn't mind playing Legend of Dragoon again. They should put it on PSN so I can find out if it was really good or if I just remember it that way.

Gust of wind, Dance!
I thought it was good, i think i mean i played it again not that long ago and liked it. God the days when quick time events were less noticable and entirely option were great.
My current pet peeve in gaming, unskippable cut scenes. I hate these with a passion. Particularly when they come before a tough boss fight, and you have to watch them over and over and over...

I still have my original disks in perfect condition xD
on note, the game still plays well, but the graphics did not age well =/
Still better than say Ayaden Chronicles for the 64...
They are probably worth pretty decent money by now.

I hadn't really thought about the graphics. Maybe it would be best if it were played on a PSP. Those things tend to look better on a tiny screen. ;)

I'm playing Fallout 1 & 2 for the 1st time currently :p Petty darn good.

It finally makes sense why there was no quest to destroy the place where super mutants were being made in Fallout 3. I was like ok so mutants are being made at vault-whatever why are we not blowing that place up? Heck why aren't we finding the source or the mutants all together?... because it's been done.

Also I was very unsure on who to trust, the enclave or the brotherhood :p

If we're not talking about just PC RPGs and REALLY old RPGs, I still play Dark Cloud for the PS2 (absolutely immense game, first game that got me into RPGs).

But... but... Baldur's Gate 2 is my second favourite game ever.

You're mean to your friends...

Good thinking! LoD on the go is a plus. I have Chrono Cross on the go =3

Now they just have to release it.

To Sony: Please release Legend of Dragoon on the PSN.

[sub]because I know Sony has nothing better to do than lurk on gaming forums looking for advice. :D[/sub]

A cool world of awesomeness.

Now I need to find a genie's magic lamp and get to wishing. Or perhaps a monkey's paw. But that may end badly for me.

I played Baldurs Gate 2 a tiny, tiny bit and was completely blown away by the character interaction. I think I played something like an hour or two and it was just amazing. However I didn't understand the GUI and it felt just way to 'hardcore' for me. But I was very impressed.
The biggest problem with Baldurs Gate games is that it is based on advanced second edition d&d. It has a very steep learning curve if you dont know it and it does not explain anything very well. The manual alone for BG1 was almost the same size as most pc game boxes today.
That's probably why then :).

I didn't have much free time when I played it due to university stuff, but it was a good experience and definitely engaging.
