Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review comment
There's a difference between overlooking a game's flaws (for any reason, in the case of this discussion that reason is the art) and what you're suggesting.
That's why I was so confused with you bringing up Chrono Trigger as if I'm casting some double standard. I've got nothing against Final Fantasy VII's art style, and I don't hold it against the game (see my review, if you'd like to know what I DO hold against that game). It's like you thought I was gonna start arguing that Chrono Trigger …

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review comment
The point I was trying to make is that you cluttered up the beginning of this review with a bunch of unrelated information, then threw out the point you were trying to make as inconsequential. It's like you were trying to bait FF7 fans into raging on your review without reading the entire thing (the rest of the review is great, as I said).
And the reason I brought up Chrono Trigger is that the original version (the one without the cutscenes) has exactly as much in common with anime as FF7: …

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review comment
You probably wouldn't like the start to my Halo: Combat Evolved review, then. And I kinda thought the 6th paragraph talked about Muramasa a little.
But I agree, they're not very much alike. Final Fantasy VII is an RPG. Muramasa is a 2D brawler with some kind of stats and leveling system. Kind of like the Ratchet and Clank games (minus the first one).
Of course, the conversation seems unnecessary considering I never tried to compare the games themselves. Blind loyalty among fans of the two …

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review comment
This would be a great review if not for the first 6 completely irrelevant paragraphs harping on FF7. You are not reviewing FF7, nor are you reviewing a game that is similar to FF7 in any way. FF7 is also NOT an anime game (at least anymore so than something like, say, Chrono Trigger).

Go MotoHeroz added - all those virtual titles are much harder to keep track of then regular disc-based games (though there's so many shifting dates, those can be a headache too). If you see any more - let me know oh, and great Muramasa review!

Don't worry, the definition of RPG has been on my list of topics for a while already.
And you can rejoice that Chris, Nick, and I have come to the consensus to add a new sub-genre of RPG just to placate you.

Since you seem to be my pet stalker, I thought I should ask if there were any other topics you'd really like to see op-eds about.

I went back and checked the blogs and have changed some games to reflect current RPG elements (namely Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls and Fallout series). Have to run across any more that should be updated? Just let me know as, even though I may agree more with Nelson, in general I want to be consistent with other sites.
