Thanks.

Dunno. If an Action RPG counts -> Zelda?
Maybe PSX is a better place to look for good (yes, good) RPGs.

Action RPG and RPG may be same. RPG mean the type. whatever its action or comedy.
MasterPhW
Aydn Chronicles, Paper Mario and Holy Magic Century/Quest 64 are the only RPGs afaik.
There are SRPGs, like Ogre Chronicles and one or two others, but I don't know there names yet.

Zelda never was a RPG for me, it's a Action Adventure IMHO.

. Hybrid Heaven

Yeah, totally forget about this, great RPG and super stylish fights.

. Quest 64

Was a little bit easy and short and released as Holy Magic Century.

. Paper Mario

Great game, it's really sad, that the second one has removed nearly all RPG parts... sad.gif

. Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon

Also a Adventure IMO, but really great Japanese style and ideas.

. The First Mage: Aidyn Chronicles

I was totally dissappointed by its gfx and gameplay, but it's a RPG, yeah.

. Harvest Moon 64

Real Life simulation was stated in the Nintendo Power... ;P

Just an adventure, without a fight the whole playtime! But it was really good.

Quest 64 is probably the only one that closest to a conventional JRPG.
Tynvar
Ogre Battle 64 is a strategy game with RPG elements.
ken_cinder
Quest 64 was NOT released as this "Holy Magic Century" you call it anywhere but in PAL regions. In US/JP regions it was called Quest 64.

BTW, it sucked fierce ass too.
powermax
MasterPhW I think you’re right, Zelda is not count as RPG.
It’s an action adventure game.

I kind of liked it... but then again RPGs really aren't my thing -- so I'm not a good/reliable critic. eyebrow.gif

Powermax and MasterPhw :

Zelda IS a RPG game. Prove? Wikipedia.

This is a copy-paste text from wiki:

A role-playing game (RPG; often roleplaying game) is a game in which the participants assume the roles of fictional characters and collaboratively create or follow stories.
Agozer
Wikipedia simply provides an all-encompassing definition for the term RPG. Like we've discussed before, almost every game these days falls under the RPG gategory; however, an RPG game nowadays refers to games that deal with numerical stats.

Zelda has none. It's an action adventure game, with some minute RPG elements.

Right. Pioneer of Action RPG, Action Adventures and the true Hack'n Slay. Everything else is sisters and stolen (yes Blizz, it is *tongue* tongue.gif ) .

no its not. if you watch a action movie and turn off the display just hear the sound of gun fire, does it make any sense?
