Ah, your basing the genre of Action RPG's on simple battle mechanics and less text, more slashing.

When really, any RPG can be an Action RPG, regardless of how complex or simple its battle system is, it just has to have some similar core gameplay mechanics. Just because FF12 and WKC have menu's everywhere and no jumping, etc. Doesnt mean they arent Action RPG's.

FF12 and WKC have the same basic gameplay mechanics as any other JRPG that uses an active time battle just without the transition to a battle screen. they are just basic RPGs nothing that really crosses them with the action game genre.

If you say so. I guess all the review sites and Gamespot are wrong and only you are right. How silly of me.

gamespot does consider ff12 just a basic rpg not action rpg, but whatever there is no point in trying to discuss anything if you're going to pull that petty BS.

FF12 and White knight Chronicles ARE Action RPG's. I cant see how they arent.

Whats your idea of an action RPG?

I'd consider Demon's Souls, Ys Arc of napishtam, Kingdom Hearts, Diablo, Champions of Norath, Dark Cloud, Zelda II all Action RPGs.

I have both and demon's Souls is by far the better game imo. Oblivion has it's place in my collection but It gets old pretty fast and it's nearly impossible to make a decent looking character.

It looks really good, im confident that Level-5 KNOW how to do Action RPG's really well, they proved that, unlike some *Cough FF12 *cough*

The online features are just awesome, but looks totally reliant on social community to be any sort of fun. eg. Blogging, visit towns, group quests. etc.

Still, i cant wait for the game! Level-5 have yet to dissapoint me.

Wow if you think this and FF12 were suppose to be action RPG's I feel sorry for you. If anything expect WKC's combat to feel like an MMO. and people don't give FF12's gambit system enough cred seeing as how it's the same idea as Dragon Age only done better. On topic I'll be picking up WKC, I'm just not sure when. I'll have to remember to start checking the sunday ads for a good deal.

[QUOTE="RPG-explorer"] One last question are the position of the controls more comfortable because the thumb stick on the older models always felt awkward and would make my thumb get cramped up after an hour or two of playing. I know you said they feel tighter but does that mean easier and more comfortable ?

yes the thumb stick is much better imo. not only in placement but if rotates more smoothly as well. I personally prefer the Go. I had a 3000 (still do, but I need to sell it) but i found it was too big and i felt like I was carrying around a brick every time i brought it somewhere. I ended up just playing it occasionally at home. I switching to the Go was pretty easy for me, I only had 3 UMD games (2 of which are available on the PSN if i ever want to play them again) and the few others I had i bought off the PSN. It's not my main gaming console so having the whole library isn't a big deal to me there are already more games i'm interested in on the PSN than I'll ever buy. I bring it around a lot more now and use it for both gaming and music when I study at school or a coffee house. I'm really glad they finally got DJ max on the PSN though, Rockband unpluged is a complete joke if you ask me.
