GTA and The Sims are no RPG’S and the screenshot from ”Diablo I” is from Diablo II do some research man -.-

Hey bud, let’s check this out..RPG means Roll Playing Games ...right?

Now in GTA4 or SA, you play the roll of a guy going to his gmom’s funeral and so on, that’s a roll. The game is centred around his character, isn’t it? Yes it’s 3rd person shooting but the game was made to focus around the story line as well.

The Sims....you play the rolls of many people. You create characters and run the game controlling their lives as a normal person in society. Now Simulation would be a righteous category as well but what about games like Flight Sim and F1 2006, etc...those are sims but not RPGs because you can’t play the role of a car or plane obviously. Sims is not like that because there are actual people who you can play the roll of...

Give a guy some slack for the images, that could be corrected soon enough.

actually i think gta is mostly storyline. You can go out and do other stuff but to really move onto other places and islands you have to unlock those through the storyline (RPG) so I think it is mainly an RPG. Although the sims, it is a simulator...but i guess if you look at it in a way it is an rpg...but like how bradley put it

”Flight Sim and F1 2006, etc...those are sims but not RPGs because you can’t play the role of a car or plane obviously.”

sums it up

yeah Bradley kinda gets it right.

And yet I would have hoped for better titles in the RPG category.

Plus if you include 3rd person action/adventure games in there, it does muddle up the whole genre.


Anyhow If that list includes Taylor’s personal favorites, I got nothing against it. But still better RPGs out there.

i have to agree with bradley wint on this one.whenever someone talks about gta the first thing i think of it as is an rpg and not a ”Third-Person-Action Game with some story”.even though the genre isnt technically that, i still dont see any fault in this post.he made some good choices and i agree with most of them, but hes missing final fantasy :)

Thanks for brining it to our notice Danilo, we have rectified the error, and have the correct screen shot for ”Diablo I.”

3 of them games aren’t RPG’s, you can argue all you want. If you define a game as an RPG because you play a character and are immersed in a storyline of doing different tasks, then most games are surely RPG’s, no?!

That aside in your bit about Diablo

”moving from town to town fighting zombies and monsters”

there was only one town in Diablo, you must be thinking of Diablo 2 which is a must better game.

Also Oblivion sucks.

This post infuriates me.

I don’t want to burst into tears right now, so I’ll just point out a little detail. The only two games that could be classified as RPGs are Oblivion and Diablo... those are the best examples that you could come up with?

For the love of god, get rid of these casual failures.

Yeah, it was my mistake. I know the genres of the game and decided to write it anyway because frankly, every game to me is ’action’. So I just classified it as an RPG because that is pretty much what every I know thinks of it as. As for the towns, I had originally had that title as Diablo I-II, but changed it and forgot to change some content. As for the Sims, yes it is a simulator, but I took it more as an RPG because when I play the game I don’t quit after a couple hours I actually go through generations with my characters and all people who play the game like me would think the same. Oh well, I learn not to bend the rules then. Thanks for the comments, now I know someone is reading the blog... :)

”and the screenshot of ”Diablo I” is actually from Diablo 2 ...”

Are you retarded? That’s Diablo 1, you stupid fuck.

Yeah, I think he meant it the other way around, lol. Thanks for the comment nonetheless.

Okay... If this is a list of the ”best” All-time RPGs... Where Is the Final Fantasy Series at all... Where is Chrono Trigger? And GTA??? Really? Did you grow up on Peggle and Diner Dash? That is a Third-Person WoM (Waste of Money) at best. Really stick to your guns... if you think that GTA is an RPG then you really just need to go back to playing your fancy little flash games on the internet. KThXbaI!

This is ridiculous. I actually got mad when I saw this, because I was searching for the Top DS RPG’s. I’m going to post my own Top 5 RPG article now.
