As with other threads like this, how people can downvote Xenoblade, regarded by many as the best RPG of the gen, whilst there are still games on the list which aren't even RPG's, is beyond me. I have noted how the people who downvote it, in the majority of cases, don't even have a Wii in the first place, and, as such, can't make a subjective reason why it's the weakest RPG on the list.

It's crazy. These things should have the best RPG's 'til last. That would be Xenoblade, Dark Souls, Disgaea, Radiant Dawn and Valhalla Knights in the final 5. Let's see if that's how things pan out

For me Demon's Souls and Valkyria Chronicles are better than Xenoblade but Xenoblade is a 9.x metascore for sure and one of the best in this gen . Dark Souls lost a lot about what make Demon's Souls so good... Disgaea, Radiant Dawn and Valhalla Knights I didn't play yet.

I never played Demon's Souls, but it does look real good! I've been looking for it on the cheap, but sadly I can't find it...

You should play Valhalla Knights, it's damn good! Of course, Radiant Dawn and Xenoblade are on the Wii which may be why you haven't played them, but both are kings in their RPG genres (Strategy and Japanese) respectively, and as such, deserve to stay until the end.

You can get Demon´s Souls on Amazon for 14 bucks.


He lives in the UK though, but maybe still a good idea if shipping is cheap to the UK.

I meant amazon.co.uk



Around the Network

+ Demon's Souls

Yup, just seen it now:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Namco-Demons-Souls-PS3/dp/B003UBGS1Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337967220&sr=8-1

I has no monies currently (just bought Rayman Origins) but if it's still that price in a few weeks time I'll likely take the plunge!

And the publisher is Namco over here, I think the servers are still up...

Who are you to say those are the best? Why not Witcher 2...Deus Ex...Mass Effect? RPGs are not just JRPGs

Didn't like Deus Ex, haven't played Witcher 2, and Mass Effect is good, but not as good as the other 5 there. I'd say 2 is the best and would go 7th.
