@trestres, ALL these games are coming to Japan in 2008.
Iif you have no problems with Japan language, then here you are:
6 jrpg games, well 2 tactical and other 4 are rpgs. =)
I just don`t know when will be USA releases, that`s it.

And you never know when FFXIII is coming. =]
Release of FFXIII in 2008 would >>>>>>>>> all what x360 has in 2008.

1) No, they are not, give me a link where I can see that.

2) Lol, if I'm going to play an RPG, I better understand the story, there's no point in playing if I don't.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

@ selnor, well I think the main genre that 360 has the advantage is the jRPG, but other than that, the PS3 does have a very varied library

 Really? How about FPS, Sports Games,  XBLA games(casual), racing(for now)

I am not a RPG fan at all(I have not played a single RPG in my life ,,well maybe except for fable on original xbox,,,which reassured me that I don't like the genere)

For your sake I hope we never meet in a dark alley.

E3 in ONE months.
TGS in 3 months.

BUT it`s a SUMMER time, who need games during summer?
Sea, lakes is all what matters! =)
And psp or ds will completely satisfy your RPG needs,
then in autumn
Disgaea 3
Valkyrie Chronicles
WKS(probably)
Eternal sonata(probably)
Tiars of Tiara(maybe this year)
Cross Edge(maybe this year)

Tears of Tiara and Cross Edge are very Japanese-centric, and there is a very high chance that it wont be localised for the West, or we are looking at 2009 at the earliest (if any Western publishers even want to bother). Source = GamesTM (UK multiplatform print magazine)

Eternal Sonata is officially not coming out in the West. Source= Namco Bandai official announcement

Still no release date information for WKS, with localisation highly likely to be 2009.
