This is a listing of games that I have personally played and that I can highly recommend to those who are looking for a good place to start.

My comments and reviews are in green.

Horizons: Empire of Istaria

Platform: Windows

Horizons is the next-generation online, epic adventure. You can meet tens of thousands of people and explore the seamless world of Istaria with beautiful vistas, incredible geology and diverse environments. You are able to take on many different traditional fantasy roles; Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Fiends and Dragons are just some of the choices.

Not only is the scenery in this game breathtaking, the players friendly and helpful, and the crafting system diverse and rewarding, but it is the only major internet game where you can play a dragon!

And you can download the game and try it for free!

Breath of Fire III

Platform: Playstation

The game follows the adventures of Ryu, who is the sole survivor of the Dragon Clan, as he struggles to discover why his clan was wiped out. The adventure takes him to many places, on journeys thought impossible, and in the end he will discover power in the ability to choose his own future.

Of all the video games out there, this one is by far my favorite, and not only because the main character happens to be a dragon in disguise. The game play is very fun (remeniscent of Final Fantasy), the graphics are alright for its day, but the storyline is absolutely spectacular!

Spyro: Year of the Dragon

Platform: Playstation

Spyro: Year of the Dragon marks Spyro's third Playstation game, and the little fellow keeps getting into deeper and deeper jams. In this 3D adventure he's determined to retrieve 150 eggs that the evil Sorceress has stolen from Dragonworld.

This is the third and, in my opinion, the very best spyro game that has been released to date! Not only does it draw from the best characteristics of both of the previous Spyro games, but there are four new playable characters that assist Spyro on his quest!
