Too broad. Comparing Console and PC style RPGs will only lead to bloodshed. You'll get people saying that Final Fantasy doesn't have any real roleplaying elements because the characters' stories are predefined and other people saying that Mass Effect 2 was a third person shooter and therefore should not be on this list.

Love and tolerate.
