Is there a way to check the prices and the games of the genre without owning a device that can play them? Like in the main website o.O?

You mean keep track of iOS game prices? just use http://appshopper.com/
I use it to keep you guys updated for pricedrops of good ios games... Just make an account and you can add games you want to track.. it also has a price history of the games..

Only problem with that is that AppShopper doesn't let you sort by genre. At least, I don't see a way to do it from their web site.

A list of the most popular "RPGs" on the App Store. You need to install iTunes to see the prices, though. iTunes lets you sort by top paid RPG and top grossing RPG, which helps sort the wheat from the chaff.

I threw the quotes around "RPG" because a lot of these games stretch the definition. Developers want their apps to show in as many categories as possible, so every damn game with a leveling system is suddenly an RPG.
