why do they keep calling LoZ RPG?
it more of a platform type game

I found another one called Evolution Worlds
its okay...but it lacks in a lot of stuff

Yeah, I know there are a few. But, I have no idea when that comes out.

Evolution Worlds...that's the third installment of UbiSoft's awesome RPG series, Evolution. I'd like to at least see some screen shots of it, since I totally love the Evolution series.

but i still say if you get any RPG on GC, get Skies of Arcadia:Legends

Word up - thanks, Zorn! Ah....it's just like Sonic Adventure 2: Battle in the fact that all it is is a compilation of Evolutions 1 and 2.

I should get Skies of Arcadia for my DC one of these days....isn't that also a UbiSoft game?

Skies is made by Sega and a company called 'OverWorks'

I'm not sure there is one...
I'd heard in several places that FE7 was GCN, but it's been confirmed as GBA.

I dunno, if you can name the main charachter after yourself, doesn't that make you playing the role of that person?
the exact definition of an RPG eludes me >_>
ooh, maybe I'll ask Chromus

wouldnt basically every game excluding sports maybe sports too you are playing the role as someone. like ratchet and clank your playing the role as ratchet, then halo you master chief in sports you play as a player. doesnt that make sense. p.s. Microsoft may buy nintendo. damn soon everybody will be playing x-box. damn bill gatus first he makes this patched OS now its on to video games.

First of all, I doubt that Microsoft will buy Nintendo and hope that they won't. Secondly, technically, almost every game is a role playing game, but the standard definition of RPG usually cotains leveling up (in one form or another) via some sort of experience system (money or experience or other) and gaining new abilities or items from the leveling up.

Madden 2004 has you increasing the guys attributes after training camp does that qualify?

CRPGs also tend to have a storyline highly integrated into the game. I don't think that Madden would have a story at all, let alone one integrated into the game :/
