CrashToOverride: WIZARD 101! Or whatever that Wizard MMO on tv has been. The one with all the nifty pets and stuff.

You are correct, sir! It's a pretty fun game actually, like Harry Potter crossed with a CCG.
Never knew it had any TV spots though, I only learned of it through my nephew :)

Okay, this game came out in 1995, you played as a fighting warlock. It was not very good at all xD. Often compared to perhaps one of the most famous early FPS games, though nowhere near as well made or received. A sequel was made that did even worse in sales. PC Zone called this game "Sick, Twisted, gory and depraved" and GameSpot gave it a 53% saying "This in-your-face combat is novel at first, but after a few hours of play, you'll be praying for a BFG-9000" This game is similar to Heretic and Hexen.

Heh, I only played the demo and I would have recognized that game from your description alone :)

Okay, Okay. Let me pull out the big guns. You have to be specific on this one. This is an RTS game made by a company that is famous for it's amazing PC RTS games. Got a port (Which was amazing) to the PS1. Was faithful to the source in terms of story, units, and environment.

The amazing PS1 port you mention wasn't a port at all, they used a different engine (proper 3D, which looks awful in retrospect compared to the PC version).
Anyway, since I only reviewed it for Abandonia a few months back, I can confirm that it is "Dune 2000".

Good Job though!

Well, I always prefer sprites to 3D. It's a matter of taste really. Perhaps "awful" was a bit strong, I just had a search and it's not that bad.
Anyway, here's the next game!

Yeah, it's good to pop in to the PS3 with it's smoother. And is that a Phantasy Star game? Phantasy Star 1?

Phantasy Star IV and why do I know it? Because it is one of the few JRPGs I can tolerate.

I knew it was one of them xD

Oh, I'm too late. I would have said PS4 as well. PS3 is one of my favorite console games. I really loved it.

Correct!
It's one of a handful of jrpgs that I like. The thing about it was that they made some pretty good characters, very memorable.
Never completed it though, I'll do it one of these days...

Okay, got one for you. A relatively overlooked FPS with RPG elements. Had a great story that turned into a weird story.
Here it is! Good Luck!
