FF is a niche RPG? Say what? It sells millions and it's considered niche? Hmm...

If it sells based on hype then that doesn't mean it's a niche game (because niche games don't sell on hype), that means it's mainstream.

 

It's a mainstream game from an arguably niche genre, which is relatively rare.

That's where these arguments stem from. However, I'd disagree, by saying that the presence of these mainstream examples make the genre mainstream, however that doesn't change the fact that many casual and mainstream gamers would be dissapointed with any jrpg that isn't FFVII, wheather they realize it or not.

Agreed.

Highest rated FF on Metacritic didn't reach above a 95 while the highest rated GTA did (other than GTA IV that is)

When do reviews matter for RPGs? Seriously. Who cares.

I'm pretty sure the 360 GTA DLC will be the next GTAIV



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I agree with the thread title and therefore disagree with the OP.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
