Forums - Gaming Discussion - What RPG's to buy? (all consoles)

Hey :)

I have always loved RPG's, and now I want to add some great RPG's for all kind of consoles.

I am looking mostly for JRPG's, maybe those with turn-based fighting (will try out other things aswell)


Thank you for all help :)

I can't call FF13 an RPG, it's Call of Duty with more cutscenes and Tales of _______ combat.

Try Tales of Vesperia for JRPGs or Mass Effect 2 for WRPGs

For home consoles I would recommend either Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Final Fantasy XIII and Folklore.

For handheld consoles, my recommendations are Dragon Quest IV/V, The World Ends With You, Mario&Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Crisis Core

...i wish it was Tales of ________ combat!



Final Fantasy XIII then Valkyria Chronicles then Blue Dragon then Lost Odyssey and then Tales of Vesperia.

Haven't played Demon's Souls yet, but these are the best JRPGs on consoles.

WRPGs, obviously Fallout 3, Mass Effect 1 2, Borderlands, Fable 2 and Dragon Age Origins.
