This is a large interview with 4 members of different development studies for videogames, about the current state and future of the single player RPG game. Personally, some of my favorite games are single player RPG's, like Elder Scrolls 3 and 4, the PS1 Final Fantasy's, the Paper Mario titles and Phantasy Star Online.
It's an interesting read, so if you're a big RPG fan (Single player of course) you may like it alot.
