Well KOTOR is a real RPG, and one of the best ones at that. If you have not yet played this do yourself a favor and pick it up, star wars fan or not its a great game.

[unbroken]

psx = xenogears
snes = mario rpg
sega cd = lunar
n64 = zelda oot
nes = earthbound zero
dreamcast = skies of arcadia
genesis = shining force
saturn = panzer saga

[Lemmy Kilmister]

PSX = Toss up between Xenogears and Final Fantasy Tactics

PS2 = Breath of Fire V (yeah, that's right)

NES = I haven't really played too much into any of the Dragon Warrior's so I'm going with the orginal Final Fantasy.

SNES = Final Fantasy 3

N64 = Paper Mario

Gamecube Paper Mario 2 (I was going to say Skies of Arcadia Legends but I'll say Skies for the DC vote)

SMS= Phantasy Star

Genesis = Phantasy Star 4

Saturn = Grandia

Dreamcast = Skies of Arcadia by a landslide

Xbox Don't know.. KOTOR and Jade Empire didn't do anything for me.

wouldent that disqualify your choices tales of symphonia and secret of mana as being traditional? I do not own these games but the method of battles is not traditional is a sense.

Traditional doesn't always mean in the Japanese style if that's how you're defining it. If anything Western RPGs are more entitled to the term.

Nes dragon warrior 4
Super nes zelda
N64 majora's mask
Gamecube Zelda the master quest
Playstation Final fantasy viii
Playstation 2 Final fantasy x and x2

Zelda is definitely not an RPG. It is a console-style adventure game.

1. You do not have experience points. All character improvements occur because of exploration and item-gathering.
2. You do not have a party. I guess not all RPGs have you in a party of characters, but pretty much all console-style RPGs do.
