If you is let me know how it runs.
Apparently a certain other site has recieved shipment of the BB and modem adaptors so I'm guessing it'll be all up and running by tommorow.

In your opinion it is.

Zelda - RPG, having trouble with your memory, must be the blond locks

Yes, and Zelda neatly encompasses practically none of these traits.
> If anything RPGs are a spin off from Adventures.
Role Play games are traditionally board games, each character has special attributes and they move along and fight both in turn based. Now movement isn't turn based although batteling often is. Games that don't follow the rules exactly aren't any less of an RPG, just a different variety... such as Mario KArt not a traditional racer.
So Adventure games are a spin off of RPG's.
And PSO and Zelda are similar structure of gaming. Of course Zelda is much better.

Eh? RPG - role playing game. The game focuses on the character you play, and building up attributes, getting weapons and such items, classic nerd stuff like that.
Surely RPG has to be a sub-genre of adventure?
(Like it matters at all :^) )
