Valkyria Chronicles
Sega's "Valkyria Chronicles" (2008) blurs the line even further by incorporating tactical RPG gameplay with both real-time strategy and third-person tactical shooter elements, including over-the-shoulder manual aiming and a cover system. This has led to the game being described by one source as "the missing link between "Final Fantasy Tactics" and "Full Spectrum Warrior"." In an interview with Eurogamer, "X-COM" developer Julian Gollop mentioned how surprised he was how close "Valkyria Chronicles" was in design to his cancelled game "Dreamland Chronicles".
