Tales of Vesperia is the best one.



Lost Odyssey is the best one!

Tales of Vespera - The Best Action Role-Plating Expericne out there ever. Im not into Anime serie or style but Vesperia touched my heart.

Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, Star Ocean 4 - Good.

Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnent, simple ok. Sometimes its trash, sometimes its fun and ok.

Enchanted Arms - Much mediocre, a beautiful boring game.

Alright, we are all aware that the 360 has a plethora of JRPGs available, but some people (myself included) are probably wondering which ones to buy. So in this thread, I am asking that we shoot some opinions off about them so potential buyers (or just myself) can figure out which games suit their tastes the most. So right now the list is looking like:

Eternal Sonata (7/10) good but weird story and the game feels old now.

Tales of Vesperia(8.3/10) great graphics,great gameplay and great characters but the story isnt good and the ending sucks.

Blue Dragon(5/10)bad story,horrible characters, bad graphics,bad and slow gameplay, interesting ability system, unecesary big scenarios.

Lost Odyssey(8.8/10) great and adult story, awesome characters, great graphics, good gameplay but physical attacks get useless pretty quick,great ability system but too many unecesary abilities,the load times suck)

Enchanted Arms(never played but it looks bad and old too.)

Infinite Undiscovery(6.5/10)good gameplay,bad characters, bad graphics, good ending and 3/4 of the game the story sucks.

The Last Remnant(4/10)worst SE rpg ever.bad graphics, bad story,bad characters,terrible scenario desing,etc)

Star Ocean: The Last Hope(5/10)bad characters and story, great gameplay, great ability sytem, bad graphics.

I suppose we can include Ninety-Nine Nights as well and Magna Carta II when it releases as well

Whether you want to rate the games, rank them, or give a brief description of each and say what you like or dislike (like story or the battle system for instance) that would be extremely helpful! Anyway, I hope to get an interesting variety of opinions here, as I am curious as to what people who've played some of these titles think of them.

 



As someone who owns -

Blue Dragon
Lost Odyssey
The Last Remnant
Tales of Vesperia
Star Ocean: The Last Hope
Infinite Undiscovery

I only played through Tales of Vesperia in it's entirety. Regardless of what some may think, JRPG's are just that bad this generation. ToV is the one bright spot in what IMO is a very dull JRPG lineup.

6 games is also hardely a "plethora". SNES, PS1, PS2, now that is what you call a "plethora".

As an owner of over 100 JRPG titles, I am just being as honest with you as I possibly can.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

100 % agree. and ds and psp lineup is pretty mediocre too.



Star Ocean 4 is the best of those to me. One of the best games I've played the last 3 years.
Infinite Undiscovery 2nd.
then Lost Odyssey and Tales of Vesperia.
Blue Dragon is not that spectacular but still good.
I loved Enchanted Arms.
And, The Last Remnant its something different.. but good too. You just have to get used.

the only one that I've not played entirely is Tales of Vesperia.. just played the demo.



LO - great story, great characters alright gameplay get this one

TOV - one of the best action RPG's on the 360 and should be in ur collection

ES - this game is alright its nothing spectacular but its a pretty fun game

S04 - mixed opinions on this one. The gameplay is just fantastic however the story and characters are terrible i say give this one a rental first then decide later if u want to buy

TLR - oh god stay away from this piece of crap. The worst RPG i have played in recent memory. The gameplay is ridiculously slow(even by turn based standards) and combined with the horrible frame rate issues, make this one unplayable. Stay away!
