I still have to add atleast 4 more RPGs (Zoids, TLR, Marvel 2, and Sacred 2) for 2008 releases...Not including Cry On, which should be December 2008 in Japan as well.

So it's going to be very, very busy for Xbox 360 owners that enjoy RPGs.

Cry On in December in Japan? Not likely. Have you heard anything about this game in the last six months other than concept art that may or may not be from the game? Much as I would love it, I can't see it happening.

This entire list is awesome, but Fable 2 dominates.

 

To take this one step further, is there any real proof that Cry On is anything other than vaporware? I haven't heard a thing about this game since it was first announced back in 2005 or 2006. Not one screenshot, trailer, announcement, nothing.

 

A few notes:

• Cry On has been in development since December 2005 (2 and 1/2 years ago)
• Mistwalker hasn't announced a single other game on the X360 since LO was finished
• How much media did we get for Lost Odyssey or Blue Dragon >1 month before launch?

Lost Odyssey had a playable demo in 2006, but very, very little media afterwards. There was almost a 1 year blackout before we had much news about it. Very similar story for Blue Dragon.

Also, there has been a little bit of CO news to come around about 1-2 months ago. It could be later (maybe March 09), but considering how low-key Mistwalker is, I bet we'll start hearing a bit about it at TGS08 later this year.
