| starcraft said: In order to have a JRPG lead, the PS3 has some catching up to do. Here is an incomplete list of JRPG's available or coming for the Xbox 360: Lost Odyssey EXCLUSIVE The Last Remnant PROBABLY EXCLUSIVE Blue Dragon EXCLUSIVE Infinite EUndiscovery EXCLUSIVE Star Ocean: The Last Hope EXCLUSIVE Tales of Vesperia ON PS3 Eternal Sonata ON PS3 Final Fantasy XI NOT ON PS3 Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess NOT ON PS3 CuldCept Saga EXCLUSIVE Enchanted Arms ON PS3 Phantasy Star Universe NOT ON PS3 Magna Carta 2 EXCLUSIVE Agarest Senki ON PS3 Operation Darkness EXCLUSIVE METACRITIC SCORE: 46 Diario JAPAN EXCLUSIVE, NEVER WILL RELEASE IN THE WEST Blue Dragon 2 (May have been cancelled, but officially still on) VAPOURWARE Final Fantasy XIII ON PS3 Trinity ON PS3 Alpha Protocol ON PS3 Resonance of Fate ON PS3 What's important to remember though Tombi, is that both our lists have some obscure (in some cases to the point of irrelevance) titles. There is a tendency amongst PS3 fans too (in those few genres where the PS3 is genuinely competitive with the Xbox 360) forget that the Xbox 360 already has a lead, and act as though the generation starts now. If you'd like though, we can start list and Metacritic wars with WRPG's... |
I didn't realise TRINITY was coming to 360.
It is true that both lists contain 'niche' titles, but in terms of quality they count as much as the FF, DQ etc. I for one would take The Last Rebellion over Kingdom Hearts 3 any day of the week. In terms of quality the 360 and PS3 are matched at the moment, but the PS3 will certainly pull ahead going into 2010. Some of those 360 exclusives did disappoint, The Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery and to a certain extent Star Ocean 4.
From your list the only announced exclusive yet to release is Magna Carta 2. Hardly a promising horizon for JRPG's on 360. I also didn't list PS3 JRPG's that lacked quality or will only release in Japan, like Agarest: Generations of War.
A far cry from only last year when many, including you, were claiming that the 360 was JRPG console king this generation.
I have already said that the 360 is better for WRPG's.
