More 360 RPGs TBA?
Microsoft is holding an event in Japan next week called the Xbox 360 RPG Premiere 2008. It's happening June 10 (Tuesday) with the "RPG Title Announcement Media Event" going from 4:00-5:15. That's Japanese time, which is 16 hours ahead (I think) of California, so that should put the timing at about midnight on Monday evening here.

I'm told the announcements are intended for the Japanese audience, though I'd be very surprised if any of those games didn't make it to the States eventually. Along with a new announcement or two, we'll probably get an update on some RPGs we already know are on the way. Perhaps we'll even find out what Mistwalker is working on next. Anoop, IGN's Japanese correspondent, is planning on attending the event so we should find out what's going on as soon as he knows.

It's been a while since I've written one of these types of blogs. But yeah, I'm off to Japan for over a week to do that thing I do. What am I going to see? Well, the only thing I can disclose right now is that Microsoft is having a press conference in Shibuya next Tuesday, to show off its line-up of role-playing games. Yeah, on Xbox 360. Go figure. At least two of those will be Last Remnant and Infinite Undiscovery, but they apparently have some surprises up their sleeve. But that's only on Tuesday. I have meetings from Monday straight through to the following weekend, and those meetings are top-secret. I will say that all of these visits will benefit you, the reader, in both Electronic Gaming Monthly and on 1UP.

Presumably Cry-on, Infinite Undiscovery, Tales of Vesperia and Last Remnant will be there but there has to be something new right? So let the speculation begin!

Star Ocean 4?
SE finally decide to make FFXIII multiplatform?
Lost Odyssey/Blue Dragon sequels?

MS doesn't care about gaming, least of all in Japan.

I expect this to be cancelled.

Cry On is sort of "new", considering nothing but concept art has been shown.

MrSingh · « **Reply #4 on:** June 07, 2008, 11:08:58 PM »

They will be re-announcing Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragoon and Eternal Sonata as exclusives.

No new titles. Sorry.

Sony got lazy and complacent. I feel like they are still just coasting of PS2's success.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #8 on:** June 08, 2008, 09:33:39 AM »

Year of the PS3 continues.

Rman · « **Reply #9 on:** June 08, 2008, 09:46:42 AM »

I'm talking about exclusives. The PS2 was the defacto 3rd party machine last generation due to its massive install base. Microsoft was new to the console business, and as such, they sought to develop 3rd party relations of the bat--Team Ninja, Sega, Rare, and the Bungie purchase, for example.

Sony has been relying on the PlayStation brand name to gain 3rd party support. And the exclusives they have tied up have been lackluster so far--Haze and UT3 (timed). This generation has been very interesting because Sony has been positioning itself as a powerhouse 1st party developer, similar to Nintendo, yet their past success has always been due to 3rd parties.

Bildi · « **Reply #11 on:** June 09, 2008, 02:19:13 AM »

I hope it's something new or a sequel to something realtively new (Lost Odyssey would be great). I'm not interested in yet another FF or Tales.

Look at all this yummy RPG goodness, on the 360 alone

* Tales of Vesperia - August
* Infinite Undiscovery - September
* Fable 2 - November
* Sacred 2
* Two Worlds 2 (yes it counts)
* Fallout 3
* Last Remnant
* Star Ocean 4
* Alpha Protocol

Wow just wow

tales of vesperia zzz

Himu · « **Reply #33 on:** June 10, 2008, 04:18:34 AM »

So you are saying Tales is going to be good.

Right.

Have you ever played a Tales game?

demi · « **Reply #34 on:** June 10, 2008, 04:20:06 AM »

Vesperia will be nice eye candy, I'm not expecting something great. There will be a demo anyway.

Himu · « **Reply #35 on:** June 10, 2008, 04:21:12 AM »

Yes the graphics look pretty good

Himu · « **Reply #36 on:** June 10, 2008, 04:24:08 AM »

I would rather play GTA than play another Tales game. Tales games are the canned beans of jrpgs.

Ok, it's over now.

Overall not the best, but we got some nice juicy info from it. Great year for RPGs, of the next-gen sexy variety.

when does fallout 3 come out

demi · « **Reply #44 on:** June 10, 2008, 04:43:52 AM »

No date is set, but it's this year

It will probably be of the shitty Oblivion variety too

Infinite Undiscovery > Fallout
