I really do hate comments like this for Xenoblade and sometimes TLS because it really margianilizes the games already out and makes assumptions about the quality of Xenoblade without any first person experience.  I know you haven't played the game and I'm doubtful you've played it's big competitors for the title of best JRPG on console like Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, Valkyria Chronicles, and Demon's Souls.  With that in mind it's just rediculous for you to call something "undoubtedly the best JRPG on consoles this gen".  I have my doubts.

If I'm honest, I meant on the Wii platform only. And in that case, Xenoblade and The Last Story are in a league of their own. Sure, there's Dawn Of The New World, but there's very few TRUE JRPG's, let alone exclusives. 

Aside from that, you're correct. I haven't played the game, and I haveb't played every single Wii JRPG there is. But judging from reader reviews, Famitsu, feedback and videos, it certainly looks to be the experience we wanted on the Wii for all these years.

I'll make sure to be clearer next time

My righteous indignation was totally wasted, oh well, I'll continue to look forward to the game with you then.

It's not your fault, I wasn't being clear enough, and at any rate, you still made a damn good point

Also, the sooner this game is out, the better. Then I suppose we'll be able to see just how it holds up to JRPG's on other consoles, and just how accurate that initial statement would be anyway...

I reckon September.
