What is your favourite classic PC RPG series?

I'm getting a new PC soon and I would like to know where to start with my classic RPG's. This is your chance to tell me how to spend my money. If I left your actual favourite series out of the list please just say what it is and keep in mind that I was limited to 5 options in creating a poll.

I would never put either of the Diablo games in a list with these others... Action RPG is very different than turn-based.

So I picked Arcanum, because I had read an advertisement for it years and years ago and only recently remebered and found it and loved it. It's pretty much the same as the others in your list excluding Diablo, but I never had a game, RPG or otherwise, quite so effectively tear me a new one. Good for people that love to be challenged, and don't mind the fact that there's no minimap to go off of, or clear directions given from NPC's. :)

Diablo is hack n slash btw

Anw, my fav series is KOTOR.

A big classic for me is the elder scrolls 3....

Baldur's Gate 2 is one of my favorite PC games.

I went for Fallout, although I'm disappointed I couldn't vote for Ultima.

Arcanum is a great game, but it's only one game. you may want to put into its place Ultima or Wizardry instead.

as for which I vote, my sig says...

Fallout 1 & 2

The first 2 fallout games, followed by the BG games, and rounding off with Arcanum ^^

Those games are so close however that it comes down to the setting you like the most: Post apoc, fantasy, or steampunk.

In the end Those 3 are game/series that I think anyone should atleast try to play.

The first two Fallout games, definitely. Tactics was okay too, but 3 was just plain bad.kieranb2000

Baldur's Gate 2.

Diablo.

Gotta say Baldurs Gate :) Was basicly the game that got me into RPG's.

One of the first two Fallouts. Two really good RPGs.
