Star Ocean The Last Hope is unavailable in the UK till June. Sucks everytime I have to tell someone this.

I would get Lost Odyssey, then The Last Remnant (unless you really want to save till dont know when as the release date is still TBA), then Fable 2, Infinite Undiscovery, Blue Dragon.

Congrats. Get ToV when it comes, I played a little, and it's awesome. Didn't play Star Ocean, but apparently that's good too.



Congrats! Getting more than one console is always more fun... You get all exclusives after all! ^_^

Oh and I know it's been said but.... GET LOST ODYSSEY! I'm serious... Really great game!

Thanks for the list of must-have games!

I think i will start with getting Infinite Undiscovery and work my way from there... Really going to have to get the wireless add-on sometime soon, does anyone know if it comes in black to match the console? Lol

Theres more but I'm thinking of your pocket ;)

If you want to start with all RPG's then I reccomend the following order.

Lost Odyssey

Infinite Undiscovery

Fable 2

TLR (remember it's been patched)

Blue Dragon

Star Ocean ( as soon as we have it here, is it here in UK yet?)

Tales of Vesperia ( as soon as it drops )

Also throw in Ninja Blade as some point. Check out the demo on Live. It's a bloody good hacker.

That list should qell your thirst for RPG's over the coming months. Then when you are hooked on LO ( you will be) theres number 2 in the making. Yippee. Then FF13 ( for PS3 for you I imagine) It's all win win win for you now. :)

 

 

Star Ocean 4 is one of the reasons i had to get myself a 360, is it released here in the UK in june so not too long now anyway! FF13 is def for the PS3, i would not betray Sony like that LOL

Well i think LO is going to be the next game then!

 

 

 Yeah you will have fun with LO. Mass Effect then LO is great start for RPG lover. :)

LO is so similar to FF in many ways. You will be very pleased how good the Voice acting is and dialogue. Also the intro is the best of any RPG. It lost some points in reviews for doing nothing really new. But what it does it does brilliantly. play it straight through is 40 hours. Do everything is 80 - 100. Have fun bro.



Squall...Mass Effect is a blast...really...it starts off slow, but once you break out of the initial mission...you're going to love how wide open it is. I'm playing SO4 now, as I was hoping to fill my ME fix until it came out, but I've been a little disappointed.

One thing I've discovered...I'm not into the combat system for JRPGs...Why are we using mostly swords and staffs....in a space-based game??!??! Anyway...the crafting is nice, as is having a ship, but the dialogue and interaction is far inferior to Mass Effect.

Congrats on the purchase, I don't think you will be dissapointed.

I would just buy 4 AA rechargeable batteries and charge kit instead of the Play and Charge kits. They aren't very expensive and if you only use 1 controller at a time, you will never need batteries. As for your wireless adapter, there are other ways to connect a 360 to wireless net. I think it is called a wireless bridge, look it up on google.

 

*****EDIT*****

I forgot to give list a few games for you to try.

Dead Rising

Left 4 Dead

Gears 1/2

Fable2

and the JRPG's everyone else mentioned.

OT: Any games that people recommend? And how is Infinite Undiscovery? I thought about picking that up, saving TLR for the PS3 since i am hoping the issued i heard about get sorted!
