Does anyone have any advice? I'd like to get into online gaming as I'm getting broadband but i've no idea where to start. Note I don't like FPS

*groans*

:D

Thanks to all that help
P.S - FFX is the best game ever made.

Star Trek: Bridge Commander is supposed to be pretty good.

Other then that, you can never go wrong with RA2.

I would go for the command and conquer games (except renegade, that is just bad!).

You can also race other people, space combat (including X-Wing Vs. Tie FIghters?)... if fact pretty much all classic one player games have multi-player varients on the web...

Your best bet is to have a browse around and see what takes your fancy...

If you prefer a Everquest/Star Wars Galaxies virtual world ... or if you prefer smaller skirmish multiplayer? ... You'll never know till you give it a go (also, Broadbannd will save you a lot of time downloading demos to try out the multiplayer games?)

If you dont like first person shooters your choice is limited slightly. Mind you, you still have a nice choice. You could try online RTS games maybe? Games such as Red Alert 2 and Age of Empires have strong online followings. Maybe like me you find them boring you could try an online RPG such as Everquest. Up to you ;p
