if i remember correctly didnt SE say FF XIII is not to be considered a JRPG in the tradirional sense

They said that they're we're trying to go for a more similar feeling as Modern Warfare, as in the way that the action happened and the events of the game unfolded, so structurally, it had more similarities to a FPS (can't seem to see where that structure is ).

I don't see why all the fuss regarding the classification of FFXIII as a RPG or not. I've seen RPG's with less RPG mechanics than FFXIII that are still considered to be RPG's as well. 


oh no..im not not argiung FF XIII's genre i already stated mt opinon of it in im 1st post, juat that i remember SE saying somehing like that,  and the qoute you stated is not the one i was talkin about. As for the FPS comment it very well is built like one.

I wasn't mentioning you with my last paragraph, sorry It was just a retort to the entire OP. As I said on my first post, he even used a logic that can be applied to a ton of recent WRPG's as well, like ME2 or Dragon Age, regarding the datalogs.
