HOLY COW

That looks amazing O_O Such a great time to be a JRPG lover! 

Blue: I agree

Red: Unfortunately, I disagree. I've been finding this the worst generation so far for JRPG's. Not bad, but not what I'm used to. There have been a few gems though.

 

 Persona 4, Tales of Vesperia, White Knight Chronicles, The World Ends With You, Lost Odyssey, Star Ocean 4, Star Ocean Second Evolution, the rereleases of the original SO and Tales of Eternia, Final Fantasies on DS, the new Dragon Quests,  FFXIII, FFXIII Versus, Agito, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, 358/242345235 days....I beg to differ with your begging to differ, uh, ness. Maybe not for all you single console goers, but for us PSWii60 owners...

Actually, I own a PSP, DS, 360 and a PS3 (and had a Wii).

Those crossed out have yet to come out, with the exception of P4 which is a PS2 game. I would throw Valkyria Chronicles in there as well as it was a fantastic game (SRPG, but I'd still include it as well as Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and Disgaea 3).

But that list, even including prospective games pales in comparison to those generations past. It may shape out to be pretty good in the end, but it just seems that the genre has been in decline as of late, in terms of quantity, especially, and qulaity to a certain degree.

I really hate that I'm disagreeing with you on this, but I think that's the case.

....Anyway, enough with the off-topic! It's nice that we're seeing some gameplay pics, but it'd be freat if there were some gameplay videos. I'm dying to see how it'll play.

The problem is that Japanese developers have a dated development method with their games.  Also, I blame the gamers in Japan as they tend to prefer tradition over innovation.  Most JRPGs play just a tend too similar to each other with exceptions like Persona 4 and TWEWY.
