You're the one embarassing yourself. Did you atleast check the games you're listing before posting them? Only 3 or 4 games on Xbox 360 and PS3 lists are adventure games. I think you should check the definition of an adventure game, or are you one of those people that believe Zelda is an adventure series?!

And about PC RPGs, too many to list, just check gamerankings or something. And also, MMORPGs are valid RPGs, anyone that don't include MMOs in the RPG genre are just doing it out of ignorance.

MMORPG is the fastest evolving sub-genre of gaming as of today. Now compare that evolution with the staleness of JRPGs and backtracking of WRPGs...

Most of the gaming community understands that Zelda is an adventure game.  If you want to go ahead and say that everyone is wrong and that you're right then go for it.  Just don't confuse the tiny world you choose live in with reality.

I didn't ask for a list of RPGs be a jerk, I asked for a list because I love playing RPGs and haven't had a good PC RPG in ages and currently Bioware's Dragon Age is the only one I'm eagerly awaiting.  I also hate MMOs.  The thing I love about RPGs the most is the story-centric focus and the thing I dislike the most is meaningless grinding for levels/gold.  MMOs basically rip out the story and add in yet more grinding so consequently I have a fairly passionate hatred of them.  I'd like a few more real RPGs to play, not MMO Grindfest #83.

Oh boy I was right, you are one of those that think Zelda are adventure games! Dude, just go check the definition of the Adventure genre on Wikipedia or anywhere else. Those who think games like Zelda are adventure games are people who come strictly from the console side. Most people do know that Adventure games refer to Grim Fandango, Sam & Max, etc...

And see, you dislike MMORPGs out of ignorance. MMORPGs can have just as much story and meaningful gameplay as Single-player RPG. See Lord of the Rings Online, which has an amazing backstory and takes great use of the LOTR license. And EVE Online, great stories there and the game embodies the true potential of MMOs with meaningful mechanics that makes no player useless.
