What about Xenoblade Chronicles & The Last Story & Pandora's Tower & Epic Mickey 1 & etc.?

Epic Mickey is a new IP, but Isn't Xenoblade Chronicles apart of the Xenosaga universe? The last story is a new IP. Were they influential? I doubt it highly but sure throw some names my way.

No, XenoSaga, XenoGears, and XenoBlade are completely unrelated franchises produced by the same developer.

The only similarities these games have is the Xeno in the title, and the theme of "Humans vs. Machines." It's kinda weird to classify this as a new IP, but there are much much less similarities between these games then between Final Fantasy titles, or even between different IP's like Last Story and Lost Odyssey.

Last Story might not have been too influential, but Lost Odyssey was influential, so Kaim Argonar would be a legit vote. However Shulk from XenoBlade would be much more influential.

Kaim was such a depressing soul. LOL I've never been so depressed yet determined emotionally while playing as a character. That game brought a tear to my eye though and I must say that was the first videogame ever to do so. Thank good he had a lively band of characters. He wasn't exactly charismatic, but he has his merits. He was really powerful for the world he lived in.

I wish that game had more Imortals, they all had such well defined personalities.

It's a shame that this game sold so poorly!

Yeah, it was one of my last 360 games before I bought my PS3. I don't think Sakaguchi-san likes Sony at all.

Minecraft DUDE period.  Nathan Drake is just a random goofy average Joe Character.

The minecraft dude even made it into Youtubes   Rewind Style video that summarizes 2012. And minecraft is the most played game in lets play videos.

It's also one of the only really good reasons to have a 360 as well as a PS3. I hope Sakaguchi-san develops some really good games for Wii U. I mean The Last Story sold moderatly well compared to Lost Odyssey, and I think it's nowhere nearly as robust of a game. If Mistwalker develops any other high profile games like Lost Odyssey, and refuses to sell the game on PS4, I think the Wii U is the next smartest choice, and realistically I think Wii U will get JRPG exclusives like this.

Mistwalker needs to make a multiplat to tell you the truth. Too many moderate selling games. I missed the last story but Ill probably buy it on the Wii U.

I'd have voted if there was a box for FemShep, but there is only Commander Shepard. The female VO just had much more character compared to the male version and I don't want to vote for the male version half at all.


Fem shep is commander shepard. Femshep is just an alternate name gamers created to separate the sex, its not real. If you were in the marines and was to address the female version of shepard you would state her name the same exact way you in which you would the male.


The male version is dumb because the VO has no soul, therefore I refuse to vote is all I'm saying.

Commander shepard has no gender in the game....yeah....If you vote for fem shep its still commander shepard.

no bro, I refuse to accept the existence of the male one! muwahahaha!
