...the first console one I played might be in the triple digits, but I've played a lot of them at this point.

triple digits? Do you mean you have played more than 100 RPG on PC before playing a console one?

Yup, pretty close.  Maybe more.  I didn't own a console until the GameCube came out -- I was a devoted PC gamer for eons.  Now I have every console since that gen to the present, with the exception of an original XBox.

I'm still burning through my eBay PS2 RPG collection... egads there are a lot.  Oh and I am experiencing console awesomeness, like Secret of Mana, and Breath of Fire 2  (playing right now on my Wii, of course), for the first time.  Good times, for me, as an eons-old RPGer.

I feel lucky, because I don't imagine that console RPGer's would get the same joy out of playing old PC games, as I do out of old console games.  If you're going to go back to the dark ages of gaming, you have to have a controller... at least that's my take.  DOS emulator (or whatnot) and a keyboard is pretty harsh.

Oh yeah, there are some bad ass computer RPGs.  I just played console ones first... because well i had a console first.

Pokemon was the gateway game that led a number of people I know into RPGs. I can think of 3 or 4 of my friends who went from Pokemon to Final Fantasy VII. (We were around 11 in 1998.)

After, I think.

I don't believe that I've played Exodus.
