Robert did read the posts above, he's just trying to piss me off (not doing a good job either). He's a little flammer and stalker, just ignore him, he's only makes himself look foolish.
Adventures aren't around too much anymore, RE Code Veroica isn't one, it's a survial horror, or simply an action game. In it the character don't gain power or life, they just find better weapons. I never played Soul Reaver except demos, It never stuck me as an adventure, but like I said I never played it.
Kangroo2, I know of some nice long and good games. Xenogears (PS1) this take 80 hrs to beat and is one of the best RPGs ever. Front Mission 3 (PS1) This RPG/Stratagy take around 100 hours to beat. It's got two different sides to the story you can play, like one side you fight rebels in future China, in the other story you're fighting with them, another masterpiece for Squaresoft.
Once again, Zelda isn't an RPG, to classify it as one is to take away from it.
My list of Fav RPGs (please note the three way tie for first)
1. Xenogears
1. Final Fantasy 6
1. Final Fantasy 7
2. Chrono Trigger
3. Front Mission 3
4. Earthbound
5. Xenosaga (once the rest of the series comes out, expect this to jump to first)
6. Parasite Eve
The Legend of Zelda IS NOT an RPG! It's an Adventure, just like Ico or Dark Cloud.
