Viva Pinata sounds up your alley. Maybe Fable 2.

Tales of Vesperia is pretty good. Very standard, no surprises and very cliche, but it does what it tries to do well.


You must dislike near every JRPG out there. I'd stay away from Tales games in general if you thought Vesperia was anything near standard.

OT: Tales of vesperia. So far, and by far, the best JRPG this gen. Lost Odyssey is the only competition in its league though, so look that up too.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

LOST ODYSSEY, MASS EFFECT(only $20), HALO(if you have Live)

Look at guides in my sig and congrats!

Off the top of my head for JRPGs, ill recommend Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean in that order imo.

For Arcade its down to taste, but if I had 1600 Ill download Braid, Geo Wars 2.



Dead Rising is simply amazing, never before has it been so much fun disposing of zombies in so many various ways.

Crackdown, Online co-op storyline sandbox game= Heaven.

Rockstar table tennis (only like £4 in the UK so no doubt cheap as chips worldwide).

Condemned (Simply one of if not THE scariest games this gen).

And of course the usual suspects (Gears 1 & 2, Mass effect, Fable ect)

Great XBLA games for only 400 MS points (Streets of Rage 2, Ultimate Mortal kombat 3, Wolfenstien 3D, Sonic 1, 2 & 3)

Great XBLA games for 800 MS points (Rez HD, Ikaruga, Soul calibur, Outrun: online arcade, Duke nukem 3D)





I am going to give you suggestions I would give to myself,

First off I would stay away from Blue Dragon no matter how cheap it is. Marumaru is enough to make you hate this game and the storyline is weak and just plays like a bad anime.

Lost Odyssey is worth a pick up if you are a fan of old school turn based combat like used in the older Final Fantasy titles.

I can't stress enough that you should try to find a copy of Tales of Vesperia. The game isn't perfect, I won't lie. However this is by far the best experience I have had with a JRPG title this generation.


So there are my suggestions in terms of JRPG. LO and ToV.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

If you have 1600 Microsoft points I would really recommend picking up Braid or Castle Crashers (or both, I forget how much they are).



CIHYFS?

How about this game: Sell it because you've made a terrible mistake?

Actually you should consider Kameo, its really fun for a launch title.

Oh yeah you need wayyy more than 1600 points, because theres a tonne of cool Arcade games coming Nao for the summer of Arcade! You probably need something like 5000 points for all the cool content.

Oh and the original F.E.A.R. is good and cheap if you like the scare.

Marvel UA is a fun bash if you've got company. Uber cheap and worth a try IMO.

Its hard because so many games have been mentioned.

Oh the Darkness! Really cool game, should be ultra cheap for 360 now.





Tease.
