I'm gonna start commenting on your last alinea:
I comprehend everything you say (and agree with it almost completely), and there is no misconception from my part - I know the difference between SoR type of games and MK/SF2 type of games. I generalized to see how you would solve the problem :)...
Your idea about 'genres' and 'themes' isn't bad at all :) I think it's a great way to make it easier for people to find games. Although there's still one thing that kinda bothers me in setting up a database structure to categorise games (not that I intent to do such a thing): For example take...
I've read most of the stuff you wrote - and like I said, I agree with most of it :) Indeed it's quite important that genres are defined and accepted. Most people don't see the necessity in that but I do. And that's why I think it's good to keep discussions like this alive.
What I do think...
Crazygoon - I know about that thread :)
I was the one that made you accept that not all RPG's are turn-based, remember? :P
I mentioned a non turn-based RPG, namely Sword of Vermillion for the Mega Drive. I must say that apart from the turn based part I agree with you fully....just the other...
Thanks for the opinions so far guys :) What I'd like to know of both of you: What RPG elements DO you find in the Zelda games next to the ones I mentioned the game is missing?
The only RPGish element that I can find in the Zelda games is the medieval/magic setting it takes place in (although...
I've been arguing with a friend of mine about wether the Zelda games are RPG's or Adventures.
Personally I'd say it's an adventure, because:The game is not turnbased (I know, not all rpg's are, but most are turnbased)The game is linear (you don't have the freedom to do anything in the order you...
Awesome game indeed. One of the best kartgames ever. Very colorful graphics, sweet soundtrack, the game breathes a classical relaxing Nintendo atmosphere. I like it, even though I'm a Sega fanboy ;)
We've got 2 awesome new timeattack videos, both of Super Mario 64. One shows how to finish the game with only 16 stars (yes it's possible!), while the other shows the traditional way of finishing it with 70 stars. Check them out, they're in the movies section!
We've made a start with creating a new movies section. We'll try to put a nice database of commercials, music vids, timeattacks, and other Nintendo related material online. If you have anything to submit, please contact me!
Looks really good indeed! This game alone would be a reason for me to buy the DS :) Unfortunately it'll take some time before it's released here in Europe, and shipment from the US is expensive :(
Ello all :) '
my first post here @ NXtreme, usually I'm found in SXtreme. Anyway, I've got something to offer that might make you drool: A ProfighterX with 32Mbit, and stabilized Velleman PSU. If wanted, also comes with a few hundred diskettes. If interested, please mail/reply me your bid!
