    Emulate some console JRPGs if you want something more linear and story focused.

    I agree with him. Xenosaga or any of the Tales games are excellent choices. Both the storyline and the combat systems are epic in both series.

    Dungeon Seige looks too evil, and Gothic looks pretty good, but the text really turned me off (the ugly text on top of people's names
    http://www.counterfrag.com/screenshots/gothic%202/2.jpg

    Sorry I'm picky :S

    I'm looking for something outstanding
    For example, when Fable first came out the reviews were amazing, and people kept talking about it for a while

    Turn-based is still turn-based. I'm looking for something that has real combat

    I played Guild Wars, and that's not a single player offline game




    Any other suggestions? Something to play while waiting for Mabinogi to come out in Open Beta

    Xenosaga's battles are turn based, but the battle system is unique (except for Ep. 3, which is a ripoff of FFX's IMO)

    And the Tales games are NOT turn based. They all use a real time battle system called the Linear Motion Battle System, each game has a different variety of the LMBS. The series timeline spans almost 15 years, from the SNES to the NDS and 360 (Tales Of Vesperia is coming out later this year, and it's probably for the 360). A rough gameography of the Tales series.....

    Tales Of Phantasia (SNES, 1994)
    Tales Of Destiny (PSX, 1997)
    Tales Of Eternia [AKA Tales Of Destiny II in the US] (PSX, 1999)
    Tales Of Phantasia (PSX, 2000)
    Tales Of Destiny 2 (PS2, 2001)
    Tales Of Rebirth (PS2, 2003)
    Tales Of Symphonia (GCN, 2003)
    Tales Of Phantasia (GBA, 2003)
    Tales Of Legendia (PS2, 2004)
    Tales Of Symphonia (PS2, 2005)
    Tales Of The Abyss (PS2, 2005)
    Tales Of Destiny (PS2, 2006)
    Tales Of The Tempest (DS, 2006)
    Tales Of The World: Radiant Mythology (PSP, 2006)
    Tales Of Phantasia: Full Voice Edition (PSP, 2006)
    Tales Of Eternia (PSP, 2006)
    Tales Of Destiny 2 (PSP, 2007)
    Tales Of Rebirth (PSP, 2007)
    Tales Of Innocence (DS, 2007)
    Tales Of Vesperia (360, 2008)
    Tales Of Destiny, Director's Cut (PS2, 2008)

    Note that the release dates for some of the games I don't quite know, so correct me if I'm wrong.
