Lost Odyssey is good but loses steam, and it has those annoying kids.
Tales of Vesperia is pretty solid all the way throughout. Although it does have an annoying kid... not as bad as LO, tho. Why do jrpgs have to have annoying fucking kids? Ugh, jrpgs always have the dumbest fucking cliches.
'cept Cooke. Cause she's the tops.
Is he a story guy or gameplay?
Lost Odyssey and Tales of Vesperia have both and LO is exclusive, might wanna grab that.

only get ToV. LO is garbage beyond garbage.
There's really not ANY new jrpgs of note coming out anytime soon other than FFXIII, unless I'm missing something...

Hey, isn't there a batman thread for you to troll or something?
Kosma- Blue Dragon is fun but pretty simplistic. It's very pretty to look at, though.
Oh yeah, I remember thinking that Resonance of Fate looked like it had potential. But it's not coming out till late next year.
Yeah it seems they are claiming a late 2009 for Japan. Still that doesn't change the fact that we're not getting it til late 2010 :lol :-\Oh yeah, I remember thinking that Resonance of Fate looked like it had potential. But it's not coming out till late next year.
What? The new trailer from TGS says 2009 for Japan.
What the FUCK would you know what's bad? You hate Batman, you hate LO, what DO you like you swedish piece of shit?
WTF is grave error about TLR? It's the best one on the system. In fact they're all good except Eternal Sonata.
edit: Woo almost caught myself. Except Eternal Sonata -AND- Star Ocean 4
:rofl Dude, your avatar is perfect for that statement.Blue Dragon and Tales of Vesperia probably fit that description the closest of all the 360 JRPGs. My recomendation would be Vesperia.
What I actually need is a JRPG that follows the tropes of the genre but doesn't suck. I don't even know what the positive aspects are, but I knew there are people here who would, so...
How bad is the loading on LO? I heard it was pretty heavy. I'm in a JRPG mood for the first time in years, but I can't tolerate JRPGs that take like 15 seconds to load every battle.
Well to be fair there are some games that get fucked up when you install them (I dont' believe Last Remnant is one of them though). I wish there was a list somewhere that had all the various HD install problems with games.How bad is the loading on LO? I heard it was pretty heavy.

If it's installed to your hd, the loading is barely noticeable. I don't know why people wouldn't install games to the hd, to be honest.
I saw the PC version of Last Remnant at GS yesterday, totally forgot they made a PC ver of it. I will be getting a new laptop for Xmas so was wondering... is the PC version worth double dipping on, I have the 360 game sitting on my shelf from last year, still in shrinkwrap :P

whats the verdict on star ocean 4? i have it queued up, wondering if i should even bother.
the worst rpg is by far and away infinite undiscovery, followed by mass effect
no, i hate on it because it has shitty shooting for combat, horrid class balance, dumb party ai, a terrible ui, dune buggy boogaloo, and terrible itemization.
story/plot/characters are for figgurts in ANY game
So your brother in law has bad taste. How does that relate to you?Strictly speaking, it's not. Not blood related, at least.

class BALANCE, sir! i do not mind playing as a space marine with a gun any more than i mind playing as a spiky-haired doe-eyed figgurt, but when you let me choose my character's class, make sure that they are ALL equally viable, not JUST the psychic powerz class because the biotics special efects look effin' stupid yet are apparently necessary to really enjoy the game. :'(
i picked a class with no magic powers and the game design went "lol, pick a class with magic powerz"
I played as Vanguard and didn't have a problem. I did hear stories about how the last boss butt fucks you if you're the classes that only let you use a pistol (adept, I think).

JRPGs...who even buys these anymore

I do. And apparently all the people in Japan who made DQ9 the best selling 3rd party game ever over there...
I bought Tales of Vesperia for $15. I dunno, it was $15!$15 well spent, man.
Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if DQ series was as reason why J-devs so frequently act like the rest of the world is just a gravy market.JRPGs...who even buys these anymore

Sorry, I meant "in the West", my bad
