I play Unreal Tournament online sometimes.

Re: which video games have 'communities'

try Warcraft or World Of Warcraft, Dungeon Siege I and II, Diablo II > that's a oldschool game, it's great...I'm lovin' it...haven't played it for years...I think this should be enough, I need to install this game again...this game is seductive if you don't care about the graphics, the story is perfect, for that time the cutscenes are great! buy it...you should get it for 10-20 $...

I've seen advertisment in Splinter Cell, NHL 2K8, PES 2008, Max Payne I & II...

Re: which video games have 'communities'

City of Heroes. I'm addicted.

Re: which video games have 'communities'

NUmb, which comapnies ads have you seen?

Re: which video games have 'communities'

Just some games from the top of my head:

  • Tekken
  • Command & Conquer
  • Fifa-game series
  • Pro Evolution Soccer series
  • Formula 1 games
  • soon available Red Alert3

also have a look at gamereplays.org, where numerous games for online play are discussed in various communities/forums

Re: which video games have 'communities'

there's this online community.. i think it's called second life haha

Re: which video games have 'communities'

I'd say pretty much any game has a community somewhere. You could find them on sites like ign, gamespot, gamefaqs to name a few. In some cases the developers/publishers themselves host their own community sites (usually a forum dedicated to a particular game or series).

Re: which video games have 'communities'

If I remember correctly in Splinter Cell they made a advertisement for another game of Ubisoft, in NHL 2K8 they made commercial for CCM Hockey Sticks, DODGE NITRO, DURACELL, GILLETTE > The commentator used to say "The Powerplay is presented to you by GILLETTE FUSION"... love this, this is so authentic...

I think Max Payne did a advertisment for MAFIA...I'm not sure, though.

Re: which video games have 'communities'

Thanks guys

By community I did not mean if there was a bulletinbosrd for some game elsewhere but more like secondlife type thing btw second life is not even close to the leader in these virtual worlds

I am looking for games which have many users connected online with avatars and identities etc

This has been helpful though

Re: which video games have 'communities'

I told you World Of Warcraft, Guild Wars...

Re: which video games have 'communities'

thansk numb, i was respondng to others who may ahve been confused by my request

Re: which video games have 'communities'

As numb already mentioned, there is World or Warcraft, which is probably the most popular.

Some console online RPGs that I know of are Final Fantasy XI and Phantasy Star Universe. I don't know how many people still play them though.
