Umm... Okami and Disgaea I understand, but Shadow of the Colossus isn't that niche at all, and it's highly regarded by loads of people as one of the best games ever, I'm pretty sure it would have a decent shot.

Edit: also it's kinda funny to think Okami is niche when in the end it's just like any Zelda game, except it's better than most.

Shadow of the Colossus has no real shot at winning... but Fable has it

What can I say, I put in Fable because there are few good Xbox classics to choose from. I've really tried to be fair and include everyone. Fans of multiple systems. Also Fable sold over twice as much as Shadow of the Colossus. 2.66 million vs 1.14 million.

If FFVII was on there it would have had my vote easily. My vote has to go to LTTP though.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Sorry, but A Link to the Past is a great game, without any biased view

it is just excellent

A Link to the Past also has more content than Super Metroid.

More content doesn't make a better game.

True in some cases and not in others. Metroid is not a RPG. It's an action adventure game with RPG elements. Zelda and FF are true RPGs. In that context, FF VI's content (plus better story) makes it a better game IMO.

Umm, no. Zelda isn't a RPG. I understand making a case for Zelda 2 or Breath of the Wild being RPGs, but the others simply aren't.

I don't like to go into long debates these days, but in Zelda you have a story driven game with hit points (hearts) upgraded equipment, NPCs to talk to, and a world to explore. It's an action RPG. 

How is Zelda a classic RPG and not Metroid by your definition?

Metroid is a story driven game with hit points (energy tanks) upgraded equipment and a world to explore. Some metroid games have NPC's but due to the nature of it's story it is usually her alone. Metroid and Zelda are the same. Both are action adventure games. They have more in common with Hack and Slashes like God of War than they do with Final Fantasy games. At least the earlier ones. FF15 is showing the series is trying to become an action adventure game.
