well they are totally different genres. Fire Emblem is a turn based strategy RPG. Blue Dragon is a Japanese style RPG (im pretty sure). thats like comparing Resistance and Gears. while i may personally find Resistance better you have to acknolage that they share few traits

Well they're both JRPG titles, but one is a sub genre beyond that nomenclature being a SRPG.

They really don't play alike all that much, and Fire Emblem games are really SRPG-lite imho (not that it's bad, I still love them).

Considering the new rating system Fire Emblem 10 will probably get 8.5-9.0.

You know what would be a good idea? Playing them first. Then one could make an educated judgement instead of claiming facts that simply can't be known.

Now if it was a "Which do you think will be better?" thread, that would be different.

I like Blue dragon more,the style of blue dragon is cool.Fire emblem well,not so much.

Yet IMO both are crap if you compare them to Guildwars,NWN1&2,WOW Etc.IMO JRPG are getting old,they are still cool but c'mon.

I love the Fire Emblem series, but I haven't played Blue Dragon. Akira Toriyama (manga artist known for creating the Dragon Ball series) will work as the character designer. He is also know for his artwork in the Dragon Quest series. If you enjoyed Dragon Quest and the art style, then you should enjoy (hopefully) Blue Dragon. I am looking forward to it, but for now:

Fire Emblem = Blue Dragon (I think...lol)

Haven't played the Fire Emblem game that came out for the GC but the ones on the GBA were just boring. Golden Sun was better and would be a better game to bring to the Wii. But Blue Dragon > Fire Emblem

1. Completely Different Games
2. Blue Dragon is bigger and has better graphics
3. Fire Emblem is story heavy and takes a lot of strategy.
4. I bet blue dragon is the better game(guess)
5. Fire Emblem is more of my kind of game and i prefer it over other RPG's even though they all have differnet stile gameplay.
6. Fire Emblem is fun! but it is a GC game. Nothing cna get around that.

BTW i voted FE because i enjoy the games more, just wish i didn't have to pay 50$ for a GC game. but i know i will :P

When sega went under, shining force changed its genre to an action RPG i beleve and went on sony consoles, and they suck now.

Shining Force (gen) = Fire Emblem basically.

Sure some will say SF > FE or FE > SE, but they offer very similar gaming experiences.

I loved Shining Force 1 on the genesis, but thats the only game i've played. It's what got me interested in Fire Emblem.

I know! i can't beleive the maker sees FE as a console game, and not a handheld game, after how well it did on the GBA. O well, it will come eventually, but still, why must they wait so long.

Funny considering Blue Dragon flopped in Japan and got subpar reviews. At least Fire Emblem is known to be a consistantly good franchise. Fanboys :roll:

I never did play Path of Radiance for the Gamecube, methinks I should have but I did own the GBA ones which were good fun (although I prefered Advance Wars for turn based combat). That being said, Fire Emblem is an turn based strategy cross with RPG elements, whereas Blue Dragon looks similar to thetraditional RPG style

I never did like Fire Emblem, Blue Dragon looks amazing. Maybe because I like turn base rpg's and FE is a stragedy RPG.

I suppose you might be right in a sense. I honestly think that turn based strategy should be left for handheld games because that is where they excel the most, 3D console one's just do not seem right to me. Fire Emblem would be a lot cooler if it was like traditional RPG's, however I do not see why Nintendo could not put some tactical features into the game in terms of combat, although it would be completely new and harder to impliment.

I know! i can't beleive the maker sees FE as a console game, and not a handheld game, after how well it did on the GBA. O well, it will come eventually, but still, why must they wait so long.

In Japan, Fire Emblem 1-5 were on consoles, and therefore is a console series. There have only been three on the GBA, 6-8. Nine is also on a console, and ten will be as well. The Japanese bought the console versions more than the portable ones, so that's why they brought it back to consoles. Yes, personally I liked FE7 (the first one in America) the best, and it was portable, but it's still mainly a console series.

Oh, and to your earlier post, FE: GoD is supposed to be a really long game (the longest so far), so that's why it would be worth more money. I still wish it was a DS game, though, so that it would be $15 cheaper. :x

Obviously Fire Emblem is my favorite, so I voted for that over Blue Dragon. Oh, and there would be more strategy if Intelligent Systems made the A.I. more difficult (adjust to the way you are playing). I think that was actually a feature in one of the Japanese FE's, but enemies still acted poorly some of the time. Fire Emblem is actually pretty hard on hard mode, anyway. What FE also needs are user-created maps that could be shared over the internet. Intelligent systems already included a map maker with Advance Wars, so I think they should be able to do the same for Fire Emblem.

Whoever said it is terrible needs to play it first or look beyond the fact that it's a strategy game. It's like how people can not like RE4 but see that it's a quality game (like me :P).

Don't get me wrong, i'm happy about an online advance wars but it is an ABSOLUTE JOKE that the GBA got 3 Fire Emblems and the infinately more popular DS has none

the problem with fire emblem is that it is a gamecube game, obviously. They didn't even add the wiimote for selecting through menus and moving units, so it's a bit of a waste. Having said that, I would rather play Goddess of Dawn, but I wouldn't consider myself a coinneseur of rpgs

The next fire emblem will bea better comparison. Intelligent systems said they are implementing the wiimote a lot more in that title. I wish I had the link, but I saw it on someone else's thread. It is happening though

It sold 300k on a 420k selling system. If anything it was a minor success for the 360. It was a critical success there as well. It was a fantastic idea and did not flop in one way other than the 360 being a flop in Japan. and last i checked did this Fire Emblem sell all that well in Japan. Not really as much as past versions.

Well maybe they are making a DS Fire Emblem.......I believe that FE:GoD is coming to Wii just because it is a sequel to PoR (which was on Gamecube). Unless Intelligent Systems has publicly stated that they wont be making anymore handheld Fire Emblems this is my guess to why the DS hasn't received one yet.

GunSmith1_basic

Using the pointer for moving units is too inaccurate because of the small squares you would have to point at. Making the squares bigger would make the game substantially larger also. It's just like all of those other precision games that were a little difficult. The pointer is good for general areas, not small squares.

On selecting menus, you have a point, but since you won't use it in the actual gameplay, they were probably better off leaving it out.

Yeah, probably so, but I wish you could find the link. XD

I have Fire Emblem on the GBA. Not a bad game, but I'm not really a fan and not interested in playing another. Blue Dragon, however, is was worked on by Sakaguchi, who was also a part of the development of Super Mario RPG, my favourite game. I'd be much more interested in Blue Dragon. Blue Dragon isn't out in the Americas and Fire Emblem isn't released anyway. It's awfully early for anyone to say one is better than the other.
