You're going to have to explain to me exactly what you mean by "breathtaking" for a JRPG.

Surely that's his way of being in denial and moving the goal posts.
BTW, no game need BluRay. Games are not movies, and movies don't need BluRay either.

Final Fantasy VII would have been so much cooler if it was on just one CD, too.
I love how I have to explain everything I say to Wii fanboys. Its like teaching kids. I love teaching kids... seriously. I don't have time to link you to an online dictionary atm, though. You're gonna have to "rough it".
Is the Wii Tales so awesome, that you guys honestly expect Wii JRPGs to outshine games like Lost Odyssey, Valkryia Chronicles, etc.? I was going to pick it up, but I have't gotten around to it yet. Too many great PS2 RPGs to finish still, to really justify it.

I only quoted this to make sure we are all of thee understanding that Blu Ray, or any larger storage matter is necessary to make great games (in this case RPG games). I mean, all those great Playstation 2 RPG games... Valkryia Chronicles is not stopping you from going to play the great Playstation 2 RPG games? < insert meh here >

Nope, it hasn't. And there WILL be great RPGs on the Wii. I am not disputing that at all.
Just like I won't deny that having more storage space (and more texture memory, in the case of the PS360) can, and probably would usually, make for a more attractive game, or one with more variety, from a visual standpoint. Variety often adds alot to the immersion of a JRPG (although obviously its not the only factor -- there are a great many)... sorry but its true.
I play JRPGs for the stories. I appreciate good visuals, but they are not absolutely necessary. If I could magically refit all my PS1 and PS2 RPGs to have more verticies, high quality textures, etc., etc... would I? You bet I would. Like I said though, you don't *need* great graphics to have a good RPG. If you did, the RPG genre wouldn't have existed before this generation... making the OP utterly meaningless, really (if you take the word "need" at its actual definition).
They are a substantial benefit, however, along with all sorts of other space-requiring features, like full voice dialog, tons of great music, lots of extravagant cutscenes, etc. Not required. Just better. Let me be the "first" to stand up and say "I like better".
