Final Fantasy Tactics sales will crush Jeanne D'Arc even though it's a remake because of the fan base and the name Final Fantasy.
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Yeah it should do okay. I'm not going to buy it though. I have my PSone copy right in front of me and a rom of my PSone copy on my PSP. I know the graphics are better now but I always thought they were fine in the first place. I will be buying FFTA2 for DS though whenever that makes it over here, as well as Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn when that hits the Wii.

I enjoy just about every game i put my hands on too but i can still rate them fine.
Just curious... what was the last traditional JRPG game that reviewed REALLY well anyway that wasn't part of a well established franchise.
Maybe it's just me but it seems to me that if you are a traditional JRPG you have to "Prove" yourself by having some staying power to get out of that Mid 7-8 range.
They made a FFTA2? I'll buy Jean D'Arc too.
Dang mobile tactics games forcing me to buy their dang hated systems just so i can play some freaking tactics games.
Yes, I play DQ and Final Fantasy games. Not as much as I used to though.
For the DQ series, I've played I through V, and VIII
For Final Fantasy, I've played I, IV-VIII, X-2 and XII, as well as spin-offs such as FFT, and FF1-3 for GB.
As for SRPGs - they can sell. Remember, America is the home of the SRPG in certain series such as Fallout and Betrayl at Krondor. Also, some SRPGs like Disagea sell better in the US than Japan - also, FFT nearly pulled a million here, so I think that's pretty good for a hardcore Iso-RPG.
Having said that, I love Blue Dragon to death. I'd place it up there thus far, somewhere in my top-20 RPGs of all time (somewhere in the #15-20 area).
About Eternal Sonata and Co-Op (having played it extenisvely in the demo).
The co-op is quite a bit better than the older-school FFs. It follows the same concept as you can select each controller to play one of the 3 in-battle characters (so upto 3 players). Since the battles involve button-mashing and ARPG-style gameplay, it's far more involved than a turn-based system.
It makes for quite a bit of fun, and is the best co-op JRPG I can remember playing. That's certainly not saying much of anything, but is certainly something good.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Yeah, FFTA2 is comming for the DS. I really liked FFTA so I'm looking forward to it.
Disgaea sells better in the US? I would have never known...

The game is beautiful but looks unremarkable as an RPG outside that, it will be interesting to see how it fares sales wise.
FF and DQ games aren't much better than Sonata or Blue Dragon but sell on the franchise names and nostalgia, a proven franchise has that power. Both FF and DQ have either stagnated or become questionable in their new directions for many of the fanbase whose moved on. For many FFX is proof enough that characters and story have become a fan-girl's affair and not a gamer's.
I don't know anything at all about the combat system. Does anybody else?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
