    8 Great Isometric Action RPGs You Should Have Played

    I haven't played all (or even most) of those listed, but I did see one big and, in my opinion, egregious omission: Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

    Games you want remade with better graphics?

    The first thing I thought when I saw the title of this thread of "Arcanum, duh." And I'm still staunchly in that camp. Give me some Arcanum! I'm also going to float out SimFarm, SimTower, and properly-modded Jagged Alliance 2 v1.13 (not Jagged Alliance: Flashback).

    Your personal top 3 games you have ever played.

    I'll have you know I dug up my old forum registration information specifically so I could quote this post and, as an expatriate Georgian and erstwhile Braves fan now living in New England, convey my deepest sympathies that you share my plight.
