I guess it must be a definition thing; I don't call Tomb Raider or Black and White RPG's, just like I don't consider Diablo one either. I must be an old school purist.

I don't think anyone was calling Tomb Raider or Black and White an RPG... we just got a little OT listing games that came from England.

Some of the best games I've played the past year or two are non American... notably OFP, Mafia, BF42 demo, Sea Dogs, Gothic, NWN, Wizardry 8, GTA3, Freedom Force. That original poster guy doesnt know what hes talking about!

I don't think there's any question about that. The original post was one of the stupid "tactical vote" posts, as HiddenX calls them, in the Top Rated Games section. Most of the posts like that are just an excuse to be a creep and, unfortunately, there are many posts like that in Top Rated Games.
