Outside of the DS RPGs, which get marked off simply for being handheld games, I personally think the WRPG developers have been pushing their genre further than JRPG developers have thus far this gen, especially on consoles. There isn't anything necessarily wrong with them, the same with games like Tomb Raider Underworld and Devil Mary Cry 4 in the action genre. They just aren't pushing the genre forward with fresh ideas is all. What really seperates games like Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey from RPGs on the PS2 or PSOne?
