1. tales of vesperia
2. eternal sonata
3. last remnant (Could be better with some tweaks, but still has some of that final fantasy feel in terms of its aesthetics and story, and the combat graphics were pretty amazing I thought, considering the game basically looks better than any other party-based RPG combat to date, mainly because the animations are synchronized, so swords actually clash against shields, people dodge at the right time, etc. And that's just when you're giving your guys commands -- then it zooms in and they go all crouching tiger on each other. Basically, it's the most adrenaline pumping turn based system I've played, much as that may sound like an oxymoron.)
4.) elder scrolls 4:oblivion (I've played every other elder scrolls game so I'm never quite as excited about them. When they can finally make the npcs feel alive and not like a bunch of talking mannequins all using the same voice I'll be really excited. I did think Oblivion was a step in the right direction, though. The intro was great.)
5.) lost odyssey
6.) blue dragon
7.) infinite undiscovery
unplayed:
enchanted arms
phantasy star universe
mass effect
This would have been a much harder list if Fable II and Fallout 3 had been on there.
