Forums - Gaming - First AAA JRPG of this generation?

ROBOTECHHEAVEN on 11 November 2008

i could care less for the meta and gamerankings crap, they dont factor into wether i buy a game or not. i already played a "aaa" rpg this gen and for me it was " lost odyssey" . the story was the best that i have ever seen in a rpg before, and the battle system with the ring system was a nice touch as well. overall i have played and beaten " lost odyssey" over 3 times with a average of 75+ hrs each time. i havent enjoyed a rpg this much for a long time, probably since ff8.

@Riachu Why don't handhelds count?

 

Because the DS has the best RPGs?  It just isn't fair...

You need to play more RPGs.

Not that I agree with him or you, but you need to be less critical on his opinion.

I think Valkyrie Chronicles is closing the AAA status it has received notes between 8.5 and 9 but most were 9.

If not then White Knight Chronicles.The Last Remnant could have a shot (first SE game this generation) but the first reviews arent very encouraging.

The much panned SaGa team are making TLR so it's not suprising that TLR isn't as good as it could've been.

It couldn't have been that good anyway based on the Unreal Engine.  I despise UE3.  It kills color.  Every game that tries to be colorful looks like it has some thin grey sheet over it.  UE3 is the enemy of art direction.

I know, but that's one hell of a claim.

I know, but a lot of people make huge claims this generation. I would name examples but I would be considered a troll by MGS4 fans.

 Also back to the topic at hand. Final Fantasy XIII will be the first AAA console RPG of this generation. When it does come out....
