Most epic game?

This isnt a question of graphics or quality... But which game is the most EPIC?

This doesn't mean that it has the most people on screen at once... But it immersed you in the world in a way that dropped your jaw, and had a feeling of massive scope.

For me, it would have to be World of Warcraft. 40 man raids are incredibly epic, and getting 3 full raids to completely destroy an enemy city is something that is indescribable.

On top of that, the end game bosses in WoW (especially before BC came out) were incredibly massive.

They were also extremely challenging... With each one requiring a completely different strategy... Even with a full 40 people many of the bosses are nearly impossible, but people manage to succeed against all odds. It's truly epic.

THAT'S RIGHT I /THREAD'D.

That game wasn't all that Epic...

All the bosses were 1v1 (except the very end), and no matter how big they were, WoW still has bigger bosses.

SotC was definitely epic, but not THAT epic.

While the number of enemies doesn't matter all that much, 1v1 is nothing...

Like, SotC had such a crappy frame rate and chugging graphics that it broke the illusion.

Doesn't get any more epic than that. 

Unreal(Epic)

GearsofWar(Epic)

I win! :P

?!?!

Zelda games = epic.

Now if Bandai made "The World" for the PC, THAT would be an epic game.

Bigger bosses = more epic?, I don't think so. Plot, music, characters have more to do with epic than big bosses.FrostyPhoenixxx

Zelda's bosses are truly epic (especially the dragon in Sky city).

Earthbound was extremely epic!!!

All games fail in comparison to halo in terms of epicness. This is most evident when you reach the last level and hear that ghostly chant while the camera sweeps across the horse you rode on "the pillar of autumn".

IMO, Shadow of the Colossus just screams epic. I still think that game was robbed of AAA.

Other games include:
Zelda: OOT
Baten Kaitos- I wish people would give this game a try. I think it is sad it goes unnoticed.
FFX
Metroid Prime

Halo: CE.

The Silent Cartographer.

Best...introduction to a level..ever.

EPIC!!!!

The music, the screams, the level design, the action...everything

Actually screw half life 2. Freespace 2 is the most epic, waching two big ass ships shoot at each other with beams bigger then your own ship is epic as hell qead

To the guy who made the huge post about SOTC, that's called frustation, not epicness... loads of bad games have that.kittykatz5k

Morrowind

 Oh god, as soon as i read this topic i thought "Someone is going to say Halo". And there is my fulfillment. Thank you. And for me its Final Fantasy 7. Or maybe Final Fantasy 8 with the Garden battle.

 It's because everyone is afraid to mention Halo because they are afraid people will bash them, but I give you props for doing it, Halo deserves a say in this, especially The Silent Cartographer (sp?)

THAT'S RIGHT I /THREAD'D.
