This is a free game forum, 90% of the topics here arn't even about free games.

Oblivion is not free
Final Fantasy 7 is not free

etc...

This is an example of a free game:

Single Player RPGs
Dedicated to discussions on single player PC or Console RPGs
How many free, downloading Console RPG games do you know of?


Sure this sub-forum is situated in the Free Games forum, but the description contradicts that.


Free Single Player games are awful for the most part anyway.

Starcontrol 2 that I posted was orginally a console game. There are tons of free console games that have been ported to PC.

Not without a mod chip. A mod chip costs money.

ModChip doesn't matter. It's still a free game. You have to pay for your internet to play a mmorpg. So they can't be free...

And you don't need a modchip, you can copy your bios from PS2 to PC and you can use PS2 emulator to play. But since you will make some smartass remark regarding it's not really a console game then since its played on PS2 emulator on PC. You can also hook your PS2 up to your broadband router and load the games that way.

Free MMORPG = No monthly fees
Free Console Game = A game that requires nothing extra than a console and a controller.

All imo.

There is no such thing as a PS2 emulator.

That is an emulator that plays 202 out of 909 PS2 roms.

This still holds true.

roms are illegal, do not mention them here. It plays free games just fine, most real PS2 games have some type of encryption on CD or something and its illegal to decrypt which is why the PS2 emulator doesn't play them.


Wether free games suck or not is irrelvant. This forum is in the free game section and that is what belongs here.

No offense Kalagaraz, but do you think anyone's going to listen to you anyway? STOP TRYING TO BE A MOD! You're not one and I don't think they're going to make you one. Stick to your own and SHUT THE HELL UP!

I never said he was wrong now did I? I said he should just shutup cuz he isn't making a difference! If he wants to do something, maybe he should clean up the RP section, huh? Hell, you want to know who posted the topic about Final Fantasy? Lothia did! He's a moderator! So are you going to tell the mods what to do now?

Oh sorry. It seemed as though you were implying to me that I said he was wrong though. I never said he was wrong, I was stating that he shouldn't really care! It's not a big deal, look at the RP section. Mostly people who post online games there, not actual Roleplays.

This sub-forum would be better suited under the Main Category forum, under the name General Gaming, imo.

Not trying to be a mod, just tired of all the posts in wrong section and the constantness of people flaming others. I reported your posts cause your being extremely rude. Which is agiasnt rules if you read the post titled "read this before you post".

I don't care if I'm making a difference or not. If everyone thought what they did didn't make a difference, nothing would get done.

Kalagraz, listen. I'm not being rude, I'm getting my point across. Other forums are worse off than this one. As I said before, the RP forum is atrocious. Just because you make one post doesn't mean people will look at it. I've already tried that. I have learned from experience that it doesn't work! It's annoying, yes, but there's no way that people are going to listen to you. Even if this is stickied it won't work. On average, how many people do you think actually read the rules? Not a lot of them. Were you a member before we had the new OnRPG? If so then you would know that the forums aren't in a bad shape yet. The old forums were so full of spam and unrelated topics that it wasn't even funny! Believe me, the mods probably won't care. One mod that I know of has already posted a topic that is, so called, off topic for this forum. Do you think they should revoke Lothia's moderating position for that? I don't!

Edit: I agree chewie.

Noone is posting in the wrong section. There is no pay-to-play section in the forums. Alas, decryption is not illegal. If you want attention, you should frequent the shameless promotion forum. Kthxbye, nubsauce.

There being no pay-to-play forum does not mean Kalagaraz is wrong.

Decryption is illegal. Which is why old emulators are perfectly legal, but newer ones you need to use your own bios. Cause the united states court ruled that if a emulator uses its own bios it is legal, but decrypting a console bios is illegal.

Older consoles the bios was not encrypted, and it could legally be used on emulators. Now days, they are encrypted, which is why emulators like psx2 do not come with a bios, and cannot be used without loading your own PS2s.

If the Single Player RPG forum isn't for paid RPGs, then why is there a sticky asking to list Free SP RPGs you know about? One would naturally assume that all Free SP RPGs go there, and all non-free SP RPGs would go elsewhere in the forum.

Free MMORPG, Free MMOFPS, and Free MMORPG Requests all have "free" in the title. The Single Player RPG forum does not.

If non-free SP RPGs don't go here, then where do they go? The non-existant paid Single Player RPGs forum?

No where then I guess ^_^. But as long as the forum is in the FREE GAMES section. That's what belongs here.
