OK, it will likely overlap with that audience, but still... | I've had people insist vehemently to me that Ocarina of Time is an RPG. "But you assume the role of Link and play his role. It's role-playing!" "Uh, you do know I could apply that same logic to Super Mario Bros., right? Have you ever even played a real RPG? You know, with dice?"
I love the Zelda series. I'll even defend Wind Waker to the last of my breath. I won't call it something it's not, however. |

Of course, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is an Action game with RPG elements. Looking for a MIB Alternators Swerve for TRADE! PM me! |
