Sometimes a game is made that hasn't got the highest grade graphics, seems a bit simple and perhaps might be considered 'limited', but then that game is actually incredibly fantastic and you can easily play it for hours. Mount and Blade: Warband is a example of such a game. It is essentially a rpg strategy game which allows you to command epic armies into battle, as well as manage your fiefs (villages), castles and towns for your money. You create your character, give him a character background and lead him onto the battlefield.
As if management and battle wasn't enough for your medieval tastes, there is the option to marry noble ladies, get in good with local lords and even (if you work hard at it) work your way to becoming king of a land. Going over all these little details will quickly see you playing the game for whole days at a time. Most importantly however, it is just very fun! If the graphics hold up at one point it is during the most important part of the game...battle! Slashing your way through the ranks of the enemy has never felt so satisfying. So basically if you haven't got this game already, you better buy it!
