You can shine the light all you want but they will just refuse to look. If you want any of the Sony fans to admit they were wrong or that the 360 is a good console it's not gonna happen. Just take the lack of responses as a win.

Due to sony's unwillingness to moneyhat JRPG's I'm pretty positive the 360 will stay ahead of it throughout this gen. However I believe the wii with its market dominance in Japan will eventually eclipse the 360 JRPG lineup. The 360 should stay the leader of the WRPGs though.

You can quote me all you want. Here's one.

With the announcement of FFXIII, new Fable 2 footage, and exclusive content announced for the Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3, E3 has once again cemented Microsoft's dedication to the RPG genre, and 360 owners worldwide should get their talking points ready. The 360 isn't just a FPS machine any longer.

What's ironic is the fact that many, if not most PS3 owners made their initial console purchase on the assumption that their favorite console, the Playstation 2, would maintain some loyalty from the JRPG publishers to the next generation itteration of that system, but so far that has not proven to the be case. With Microsoft posessing a strong lineup of old and new RPGs, and the Playstation 3 currently featuring very few, it appears the balance has shifted when it comes to the best brand for current gen RPGs, if fanboys want to admit it or not.

So, if 360 has a superior lineup of J/W RPGs, what does the PS3 have a superior lineup of?

Well, if you count the fact that you can get a lot of JRPG games earlier on the 360, as well as the fact that this topic is about RPGs in general and not just JRPGs, then I'd consider your post cherrypicking in a very vague sense of the word. While we can't claim a winner yet, SE is definatley in for the long haul of supporting the 360, and as it currently stands, 360 has a monumental lead.

We can't call the Wii the winner of this gen yet either, but as you know all too well, the lead is undeniable.

360 has the current edge in RPGs.  But MS bought a lot of them (that's not the real objection...wait for it...) and I don't think they are helping to sell 360s, and certainly they are not having much effect in Japan.  When considered as part of the whole "let's win Japan" campaign, MS's RPGs buyoffs are part of a net dollar loss.

That's why they need to depend of sales in the West

no, the undisputed king is the ps2.

and 80%+ of the RPG on the xbox are just timed exclusives.

 Culdcept lacks a lot of the qualities normally used to define an RPG. It is easier to call Zelda an RPG than it is to call Culdcept one.

 First off, the story is detrimental to the game. The game works a thousand times better if you simply remove all the dialogue and just play the game. There is nothing compelling or engrossing about it. You don't even meet any interesting side characters to spruce things up. You just get terrible dialogue and shitty excuses to suddenly fight with cards. The entire story concept was essentially stolen from Yugioh.

 Secondly, there is no way to level up your monsters. None at all. Certain ones have special abilities that increase this stat or the other occasionally, but those are temporary effects 99% of the time. You can level up a land, but the land and creature are only incidentally related. If I have a level 5 land, I can easily swap whatever creature is on it for another one with no penalty. It remains a level 5 land (with all the bonuses that come with that) with a new creature on top.

 Thirdly, there is nothing that is close to equivalent to EXP. Nothing that is even remotely similar to it in fact. The mechanic is entirely absent from the game. 

 There are a number of other smaller issues like the almost complete lack of equipment, shops, etc but I am too lazy to go into all that. I will sum it up by saying the game is a cross between Magic: the Gathering and Monopoly. Download the demo and play it and you will understand why the game is not a RPG. The demo will show you almost exactly what the rest of the game will be like. All you are missing is deck construction which does nothing to make it feel more RPGish.
