 hey peopel, who can tell us ,.. which game actually offers the biggest or most impressive monsters nowadays?

 

i mean graphically big and impressive.. not like in guildwars, wher the biggest enemies are hard to kill, but are actually not bigger then others ;D

 

 

  thank you in advance.. in hope for an interesting "talk"

There may be bigger, but I always liked the towering Midgard frost giant in DAOC

WoW has some pretty crazy tall mobs, but you are usually killing them via special quests which boost you up. I have seen some screenshots of some very large mobs in Fallen Earth as well. And I have always imagined that the Pandimoniom Warden from FFXI was huge... But I have no idea if that is true, lol.

If you are talking MMOs, there are many insanely large enemies to choose from- I remember walking under the legs of that giant in DAOC and really understanding the scope of the genre was infinite. One of my personal fall in love with MMO moments.

Not to say you can't do that in another genre, but the fact that other people were there with me made it feel so much more epic.

As for non-MMOs- Lost Planet 2 has insanely large enemies. Big enough to jump onto their backs, go into their mouths, etc. Super Mario 64 also has some very memorable large beasts- like the Nessie-thing you ride on.

Shadow of the Colossus - an amazing game, just recently finished it again :)

as for MMO's - Lineage 2's Antharas was pretty epic, i know theres some more huge mobs in that recently too.

 

On another note i just finished Dead Space and the final boss on that was Epic - the thing was Huuuuuge :)

Hill, Sand, Frost, Forest Giants (EQ1)

those are the ones that come to mind when I think of the biggest monsters.

I think they know something we don't...

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I porn surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of 'hot xxx galore'. While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", I muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, "404."

There's no such things as girls. They're all guys. It's a conspiracy, it's part of the new world order.

well i play shaia sometimes.. but the old engine is SOOO ugly ;D

some areas .. are so empty.. only a green hill.. no grass, few trees..

but skills and fighting is great, overall interface is quite great.

episode2 gave us finally 1680x1050.. (yesss) but not much difference in graphic quality.. too bad.)

what level necessary to encounter nice big enemies?

(btw: the dark side female enemies look nice haha.. but.. only 4 adults?, my son is 6 and playing too.. sometimes i am not sure if i shall send him to the lighties ;)
