Aside from AO...

I enjoy Single-player RPG's on PC...and I'll replay my favorites often.

Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 (my all-time favorite series)
Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2
Vampire: Redemption and Vampire: Bloodlines
Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2
Jade Empire
Icewind Dale 2
NHL 2008
Magic the Gathering
World Series of Poker

Currently trying to play the old Fallout game, which I never got around to playing.
I may be retired, but I'm GridStream for life.

I just recently started poking at Dungeon Runners, the free WOW-meets-GW knockoff by PlayNC. It's downright hilarious in the way it pokes fun at itself and other fantasy MMOs, and some of the NPC character voices had me cracking up so much I just kept talking to them to see what else they'd say. Like the crabby hermit guy who says "You know that town where they all pretend they're in the Renaissance? Yeah those guys suck." And the weapons dealer who sounds exactly like Arnold Schwartzenegger and goes "Excuse me, I have to cleah my throat. EEAAAAUUUGGHGHG!" Just brilliant stuff.

Plus it's a soloers paradise because almost everything is instanced to the individual and/or team. Very fun little resource-friendly game to zone out to for a half hour at a time, zero brainwork involved (yes, it's even easier to play than WOW).

DR is hilarious. Had a paid account there (which gives you access to using the best weapons and armor in the game), but quit in order to play other things. Right now I've taken up City of Villains instead, while awaiting the release of Tabula Rasa and AoC.

Just recently played through Half Life 2 episode 2 and portal both awesome games. Episode 2 for being a good continuation of the half life saga. And Portal for being such a simple concept that was done so well.

Played hellgate london yesterday and its awesome :)
Great rpg slash em or fps for those who want it that way. Its made by most of the team who made diablo II only there now flagship studios rather than blizzard north.
Don't think a lot of the multiplayer yet but I am sure that will be good once I have some friends to mission with.
