Gees.  I've played a lot of console RPGs and they NEVER involved me in
quite like the Ultima series.  I guess all it comes down is to personal
preference.  However, it was games like Bard's Tale, Ultima, and Wizardry
that spawned the CRPG industry.  Most 3d-RPGs are descendents of Bard's
Tale and Wizardry series, while overhead games, like Final Fantasy and
Dragon Quest(Dragon Warrior.  Same difference.), are descendents of Ultima
series--one exception I guess is Ultima V.  No matter what, It was through
PCs that the whole CRPGs became popular.  

CMStr.

BTW, apologies if I've offended anyone and everyone.  I seem to do that
once in a while.
