Mario College Play, anyone? I don't know if it's old or not. Could have been done better (if they were Asian), but neat all the same.

Ralph Hardy confessed to ordering an extra credit card from his dad's existing credit card company and taking his pals on a US$30,000 spending spree after which they ended up playing Halo on an Xbox with the hookers in a Texas motel.

The full story can be found here.

Haha awesome pants! I want to spend $30,000 on hookers and video games!

The prostitutes told police they grew suspicious when the kids said they'd rather play Xbox than play with them.

HA! That made me laugh.

FFIV 3D remake makes me hopeful for a FFVI remake.

Also,

FFIV remake looks hot. If they hit up FFVI I will grab that shit. FFV didn't do it for me so much. Story was kind of lame. Loved jobs though.

I dunno, FFVI had this really neat art, that wasn't pulled together by a decent gameplay and story experience, so a remake that changes that art would probably end up being mediocre at best.

I loved that game.

The Killer Wall thing will forever be in my nightmares. I have never had my heart beat faster during any other RPG battle.

It WAS a nice game in parts, it's just that the in-between stuff couldn't keep me playing at all.

If Zelda isn't an RPG, then 80% of the so called RPGs aren't RPGs in my eyes. The whole genre falls apart if you don't let Zelda be an action RPG.

Imo, there is no such thing as an RPG video game. Most of the time RPG is used when people want to say fantasy game or medieval simulation or adventure game.

Unfortuantely RPG is very undefined. Some RPGs out there had no character progression or build or even equipment and were called RPG because of their fantasy nature.

pretty much
except it's technically an action-adventure game
always has been
with rpg elements
i guess

When it comes down to it, there's no such thing as an RPG imo. Aren't all games about role playing? It's just that most RPGs made sure there is experience and character progression, but you see that in a lot of other games too. Zelda certainly has that progression element, and it's as much an RPG as anything else.

Also, I don't see the difference between an RPG and an adventure game. It seems like RPG is just a subgenre of adventure games, and Zelda falls on the boundary.

I also hate the whole box thing, especially with good games, which just don't fit into that box. It's a disgrace to Zelda to call it either an adventure or an RPG imo, because it's that much more too.

Philosophy ftl.

I never considered Zelda an RPG.



I KNOW this is old, but someone should buy this for me:
