I agree with MakingMusic we haven't seen a Great JRPG this gen. And Wait since when was WKC delayed? I thought I could buy that bad boy this fall. WTF???

And I hope and pray to god this game has a better story then rouge galaxy. But I think the standard of JRPGs get better after the megaton of Final Fantasy hits. So I would say wait until 2010 for when the good JRPG's start to appear

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

you should blame the sucess of handhelds in japan. for example dq9 (looks like shyte on the ds) it cant compite with hd wrpgs like mass effect or fall out (wich i hate by the way).
amd persona 4 is way better than persona 2 and 3 and lost odyssey is awesome. because M$ took it seriusly.($$$$$$)

Konami has made absolutely no indication that the PS3 release is going to see light anywhere outside of Japan. While it may seem like an easy decision, given how poorly the Eternal Sonata PS3 port did and how jRPGs in general aren't really blockbuster hits, it's possible they may just decide it wouldn't be worth it to localize it. It's entirely possible that the 360 version is the only version people see outside of Japan, though I think it's just a matter of when and not if for a US release.
