A look at the genre of Action-Roleplayng games and a retrospective documentary on the Xak series. I run a site that deals heavily with Action RPGs called XyZ and focuses primarily on the Xak Ys and Zelda series. After seeing the Zelda and Metroid Retrospective videos I’ve been toying around with the idea of creating one for the Xak series which is a personal favorite of mine since it is an obscure series that many people do not know of. I finally got around to putting it together as part of a assignment for my college Digital Media class. Currently it is still unfinished as it is missing well... the first part of the documentary. lol But for the sake of time at least the intro is finished. I might make some edit changes here and there as I finish up part 1. I just updated the list of games in the video. Here they are in order as they appear: 1. Faxanadu 2. Crystalis 3. The Magic of Scheherazade 4. Star Tropics II 5. Battle of Olympus 6. River City Ransom 7. Golden Axe Warrior 8. Golvelius 9. Neutopia 10. Sylvan Tale 11. Crusader of Centy 12. Illusion of Gaia 13. EVO The Search for Eden 14. Terraenigma 15. Magicoal 16. Star Hearts 17. Secret of Mana 18. Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain 19. Alundra 20. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night 21. Cave Story 22. Kingdom Hearts II 23. Beyond Good and Evil 24. Okami 25. Rogue Galaxy 26. Odin Sphere 27. Zelda Series 28. Ys Series 29. Xak Series
