Final Fantasy Tactics (not advance/2, those are teh crap)

But for the DS I really enjoyed Disgaea even though the graphics were terrible

All I care about on that list is Castlevania

Please dont' suck!!!!!

Wait....no....ok

How about...a boy...who saves the world...yeah

In news actually related to Tetsuya Nomura, he should show up in a suit made of belts and zippers

In console or handheld market?

Assuming handheld, then yes, since there's only Nintendo and Sony...

You have stats that are directly related to your abilities/capabilities (JRPG/WRPG), and skills/equipment customization (the backbone)

i.e. Your intelligence goes up = stronger magic attacks

You can't really argue story since every game has some sort of basic plotline (amount of story's importance is subjective)

Dialogue/NPCs apply to many games

Choices in a role-playing game...that is where JRPGs and WRPGs differ (paper/pen vs. strong narrative) so again, subjective...just because you assume an identity doesn't necessarily mean you should be guaranteed freedom...you just play from that characters POV...adding artificial choices doesn't really do anything besides making you feel like you play a part in the story when you really aren't...in JRPGs you make all the choices (Turn-based battles) except during cutscenes anyway

We can both agree that this thread is crap at least?

Tales of Vesperia

srsly, nobody beats motoi sakuraba

Assuming that it won't use UMDs, nor will it be a download-only platform, I wonder what Sony's going to use for the actual games.
