The title. Looking for RPGs with big choices, I own PS3, 360, and PC. So any game on one of these platforms will be great.

Get KOTOR for your PC. It is an RPG with similar qualities to DA:O. One of the best games ever.

If you haven't played the Baldur's Gate series, you really need to fix that egregious omission. It's 2d isometric view though, if that bothers you.

You could also check out some Neverwinter Nights community made modules. There are some excellent ones available.

The Witcher games are great as well, if you don't mind a preset protagonist.

Already got KOTOR 1 and 2. Should've mentioned that in the OP.

Every Obsidian game ever made except for Dungeon Siege I don't care for it.

Wait for Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition later this year - no need to run out and play the old version when a majorly updated version is on the horizon.

Fair enough, is there anything out right now that I should check out? Preferably something easy to find in a store or on Steam/Origin.

Eurypterid made a good suggestion with The Witcher series - I haven't played them myself, but it's my understanding that there are plenty of "big choices" in them for you to make.

Yes the witcher, I was actually planning on buying the 2nd one. I saw the collector's addition at Wal-Mart for a mere 29.99. Might get that and I'll see if I can find the first one.

Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines is a pretty awesome game with a good level up system lots of choices to make

TW1 enhanced edition sells for 9.99 at GOG.com.  You should buy it from them.  DRM-free and it's the developer's sister company so they get more of the profit.

Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition comes out on April 17th.

I'll second this one.

I'd give Alpha Protocol a whirl. The combat's a bit shaky, but if you go stealth and pistols you can make it through without much issue, and the story/consequence handling is pretty aces.

The Drakensang games are fun, although they're a little rough around the edges. Still, very deep games that are very old-school in presentation and content.

Precursors has less in the way of big choices, but it's an open-world FPS/RPG. It's not very polished, but it's Eastern European and has a lot of stuff that you won't really find elsewhere.

I was waiting for this one. I second the motion.

And for a completely different type of game, but that IS an RPG with a great deal of choice--the ending is predicated on your choices--you should definitely try Hammer & Sickle if you can find it. It's described as a tactical RPG.

It took me about five playthroughs to get the "official" or most complete ending, and even after that I was still discovering things.

Kind of hard game to play, in that things aren't really spelled out for you clearly, and that can affect your missions, but it promotes a lot of replayability.

Some good suggestions so far, but have yet to spot a Neverwinter Nights 2 suggestion. The OC has peaks and valleys (though is mediocre overall), but the Mask of the Betrayer expansion is a must.

 Heavy Rain. IF you don't mind playing something that's more like an interactive movie.

Id pick up Freelancer. The graphics arent great by todays standards by the gameplay and the story is solid. Even has mods and I actually believe there is still MP servers going on to this day.

I cant believe that Microsoft never made a sequal. Its great, and Id still play it today If I hadent broken my disc.

I'm actually of the opposite oppinion.
I think MoTB is worse than the OC.

MotB is like, totally deep, man. There's gnolls that can kill your epic level characters, man. It's like, a brilliant reversal of a common D&D trope. Like the cranial rats in PS:T.

Really, who would want to find actual epic level enemies like dracoliches, beholders, devils, baalors and demi-gods like in Hordes of the Underdark?

Agreed. Especially Alpha Protocol is as close you can get.

Precursors is amazing game, not even that buggy if you use Russian version of the game.


I'd also recommend The Witcher 2. You play as set protagonist, but the story is amazing and complex. It is better (or at least equal) to BioWare-quality stories. And choices in The Witcher 2 have tangible effect on the game world. You MUST play the game at least twice to see both main paths.

 As said already, GOG is the only way to go.
