PS2 RPGs

Originally posted by Firestormalpha: Just out of curiousity, would Eidos Interactive's rpg/action game Revenant, be considered a western or eastern RPG? Combat style of the PC is distinctly eastern in nature, but that proves nothing.

Eidos is western company right? so it's western rpg.

1....I have NEVER had any trouble playing any PS game on my PS2.

2....You will not find a true RPG on any PC or Console. If you want a true RPG play a PnP game, of your choice. There are tons of them and some are actually good. Spycraft to name one.

Wulfere, while I agree the only true RPG's are the PnP games, we're discussing PS2 RPG's. While not true RPG's they serve the purpose.

P.S. Some argue that MMORPG's are RPG's. This is a tremendously false statement. I've never encountered a player of this genre who is doing something other than powergaming. YOU may be the exception; YOUR FRIENDS may be an exception, but the exceptions do not make up the majority.

No arguement from me on that, they are as good as you can get without a living GM. I will back you up on the MMORPG's as well. That's why I quit playing them.
