Its always possible, i remember seeing the very first diablo on playstation. But it obviously wouldnt touch the PC versiondestro123

Actually Diablo 1 on PS played rather fine, i still have the game BTW

The visuals are nothing special, can easilly be done on any system

Magna Carta was the single worst JRPG I played last gen. Even Ephemeral Fantasia was a better overall game.

Now, I do realise that there are certain people who simply believe that Japanese Action-Adventure games (LO, ToV, BD, etc.) and games like Mass Effect are RPGs, jethrovegas

Wow, we're starting to get really fast and really loose with our genre definitions.

Now, I do realise that there are certain people who simply believe that Japanese Action-Adventure games (LO, ToV, BD, etc.) and games like Mass Effect are RPGs, and will never change their minds no matter how many times I hit them with the logic stick, and I have begun to accept that (even if I won't stop calling it out), but you, sir, have titles on that list that just don't make any goddamn sense, from any perspective that I can possibly imagine.

Overlord? Kingdom Under Fire? Zoids Assault? Operation Darkness?MMOs? I mean, I could spend half an hour shredding this list apart based solely on the quality argument, but why bother? This isn't even a list of RPGs, so the argument sort of makes itself.

jethrovegas

I don't mind someone trying to create a legit topic to say, this is what we have you don't. I'm a owner of a Xbox 360. I look at the list, and I can't believe some of games I saw up there. Even if they were RPGs or not; really get your INFORMATION RIGHT. He'll say anything to slam *(&^ in people's faces. I am big Final Fantasy fan, and I still can't believe no one has posted the information of SE's release date plans for it from the recent GameInformer. As early as Summer 2010 and as late as holiday 2010 in North America? You gotta be kidding me.

[QUOTE="CreepyBacon"][QUOTE="knight-k"]

Almost all the w-rpg's are coming to pc, so I'll get the superior pc versions. And star ocean 4 will come to PS3.

And let's be honest there's a lot of mediocre stuff on that list...

Annd here comes the PS3 only owners with their invisible imaginary super computers. Honestly why it matters I don't know, it's not like PS3 only owners play anything but shooters anyway, look at Valkyria Chronicles that game is awesome yet PS3 owners don't buy it anyway.Newflash guys: IT HAS GUNS IN IT, GO GET IT@@

Basically Cow logic summed up in a nutshell. Their super-computers are among the best in the world.

[QUOTE="knight-k"] Like I said a lot of mediocre ****(and some flops) like fable 2 and lost odessy,.... And you forget the mods you have on pc and don't have on 360. So no it's a weak rpg list.

Yes, I find it stupid how people say 8.0-8.5 is mediocre, 5.0-5.5. is and always mediocre, people won't have a lot of games to play if they rely on only AAA games for each year.

Terrific.

You remind me of someone.We used to have a fellow in System Wars that would constantly spam 360 rpg lists over and over and over , and he would continually bump his own threads when people lost interest ... I believe he even had a few different names along the way , anyone remember him ?

I care, exactly because 360 gets ALL the PC RPG's i wanted, plus a host of its own exclusives i would never miss like Fable 2, SO4, Tales, Lost Odyssey etc and many JRPG's from PS3 like FF13, Magna Carta 2 etc

Also i like playing any 3rd person game with a pad 1000x more than a keyboard and mouse, so i could not care less about RPGs on PC myself, i get them all on my 360 and double with 360 own exclusives

No, he didn't say they weren't good games, SOALIN (what is this, your fourth account?), he said, that they were Not some of the best RPG's of all time. Those are not anywhere close to the best RPG's of ALL TIME, they are fine and good. In fact, Mass Effect was great, but not one of the best RPG's of ALL TIME.

Fable 2, is hardly an RPG either, despite M$ pinning it as one (I have over 950 Gamerscore). Anyways, that's all he was saying, he was disputing the ALL TIME part. I agree with that.

Yes I remember. I forget his exact username though. I remember he was talking about how he has to balance his time with Karate, Gaming, and School. :lol: Anyway a solid lineup, but I'll be getting the PC versions since they cost less and play better (plus mods).

EDIT: I'm not even sure he got banned, it could just be Saolin323 since he's an avid Fable 2 fanboy.

i agree with Fable 2, it's more of an action adventure game Mass Effect... it's great for trough your first playtrough, the rest.... meh Lost Odyssey though is awesome, the strongest in the bunch if you ask me the only problem with the game was those damn kids

I think you need to start hitting yourself with your own stick. :?

If you would care to explain why the aforementioned JAAGs are RPGs, then please do; I've never heard a good argument in defense of the so-called "JRPG" genre, but I certainly love surprises, so do try.

As far as Mass Effect, that isn't nearly as self evident, so I'll C&P some of my prior arguments against it, from another thread:

First of all, definitions. In order for a game to be an RPG, it must:

A) Provide meaningful ways to change/interact with the gameworld and its NPCs.

B) Have actual role playing; ie, if I play through the game a second time, with a different kind of character, I should have a completely different experience.

Mass Effect pretends to succeed at point A by offering superficial "BIG DECISIONS" but they are all just that: superficial. Not only that, I can't think of one serious implied decision in the entire game. Everything is presented in cutscenes and when you do have an option, it's just A or B or C, with no real consequences for any of them. Point B isn't even worth discussing in this game. The skillset is pathetic, and mostly combat based, to the point that your only real choice in character building is "do I kill fools with epic powah A, gun B, epic powah C, or gun D?" There isn't even an option for stealth.

Not an RPG.

Yeah, I would say they were fun, but of "All Time"...that's a bit much. LO got a bad rap, but it was the old school, although a bit tedious at times, RPG for the system. ME had it's boring parts too (Elevator FTL, horrible Item management), plus I had a few friends that played it like GeoW, in that the RPG stuff was on Auto. It could be a 3rd person shooter, if it had to be.

No I'm saying you'd be really hard pressed to find anyone who has played games for 5-10 years to put those in the top rpgs of all time.

To Jethro:

That's a very poor defense as to why ME isn't an RPG. What you just said regarding it was completely subjective. If those things you listed don't make ME an RPG< then there are hardly any RPG video games in existence. The point is, the player DOES influence the world he plays in, and the cl@ss he/she chooses can offer a very different play through. Whether the aforementioned interactions are "serious" or not, and whether the cl@sses provide a "true" different playthough are merely your points of view, not facts.

Those are not anywhere close to the best RPG's of ALL TIME, they are fine and good. In fact, Mass Effect was great, but not one of the best RPG's of ALL TIME.

Fable 2, is hardly an RPG either, despite M$ pinning it as one (I have over 950 Gamerscore). Anyways, that's all he was saying, he was disputing the ALL TIME part. I agree with that.

SolidTy

i agree with Fable 2, it's more of an action adventure game Mass Effect... it's great for trough your first playtrough, the rest.... meh Lost Odyssey though is awesome, the strongest in the bunch if you ask me the only problem with the game was those damn kids

Yeah, I would say they were fun, but of "All Time"...that's a bit much. LO got a bad rap, but it was the old school, although a bit tedious at times, RPG for the system. ME had it's boring parts too (Elevator FTL, horrible Item management), plus I had a few friends that played it like GeoW, in that the RPG stuff was on Auto. It could be a 3rd person shooter, if it had to be.

everyone knows the only RPG this gen that deserves to be mentioned "all time" is Neverwinter nights : mask of the betrayer :P

[QUOTE="obamanian"][QUOTE="senses_fail_06"]If those are your first 3 rpgs ever, then maybe.senses_fail_06

So, you mean those are not good games, because you say so ?

No I'm saying you'd be really hard pressed to find anyone who has played games for 5-10 years to put those in the top rpgs of all time.

I said they are some of the best i have played, not the very best, this is a stupid title to give any game anyway

See, i am not one of those gamers that play and like only one overhyped game, i have the right to like many games at the same time, right ?

To Jethro:

That's a very poor defense as to why ME isn't an RPG. What you just said regarding it was completely subjective. If those things you listed don't make ME an RPG< then there are hardly any RPG video games in existence. The point is, the player DOES influence the world he plays in, and the cl@ss he/she chooses can offer a very different play through. Whether the aforementioned interactions are "serious" or not, and whether the cl@sses provide a "true" different playthough are merely your points of view, not facts.

There are plenty of RPGs in existence. There just aren't alot of them being made at the moment.

In Mass Effect, the vast majority of your skills are combat focused. There are meager options outside of combat in the skillset, like superior container opening abilities and two dialogue tracks that interlace with the morality system for "Paragon" and "Renegade" dialogue options (drop the points and click on the color coded options when you see them), but that's it.

You have levels, and you will progress through them by shooting people in the face with one gun or another, or by using psi-powers to make them float above you, and then shooting them in the face. You cannot sneak through. You cannot avoid the face shooting by being exceptionally clever or good with words. You cannot say "**** this" and shoot everyone on the Citadel, because, for some strange reason, guns don't hurt people on the Citadel until the game decides that they should.

Choice:

A) Shoot the ****ers this way.

B) Shoot the ****ers that way.

Put simply, the game's developers were more interested in telling their story, than they were in allowing the player freedom to truly define a role for themselves in the game's universe.

Mass Effect is an action game with a few forks in the road.

No, if we go by what you think defines an RPG or not, there have probably been less than a five made so far this decade.

You're over-simplifying things, and I think you know it.

So, no JRPG is a real RPG i guess, they are vastly more linear and never allow your story to be told or chosen, right ?

JRPG's are by your definition 1000x less RPG's than Mass Effect

So I should open up the borders of the definition so that everybody can play?

"There aren't enough bald eagles. Let's expand the definition to include vultures so we can take the species off the 'endangered' list."

It really is that simple. I could make my argument unnecessarily complex, but that would be pointless.

You really need 11 gigs free of space to install the game or Last Remnant runs like garbage.
