Generation has always meant time period to me, and Persona 3 was released within this time period. I never said on current-gen consoles :|

It's between The World Ends With You or Persona 3. Lost Odyssey was decent but cliche and the same thing I've been playing for years.

Yeah..... I couldn't bring myself to finish Lost Odyssey, so that's one of the reasons it's not included. The other it was so cookie cutter, something I probably would've tossed aside if it was released last generation :|

1. Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn

2. Pokemon Diamond Version

3. Super Paper Mario

All three are in my top 20 favorite games of all time, with Radiant Dawn sitting at number 2.

TWEWY truly brought something new on the table as far as handheld jRPGs go (jRPGs in general, including those on console). Special props to Persona 3 for also creating something truly "unique" and "different" from the mainstream jRPGs.

Lost Odyssey is one of the best JRPGs I played this Gen sofar. I am playing Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core and that is pretty fun, although I am still not fully use to the Battle system yet. But Sofar it is fun.

P3: FES. I'm actually bummed I played through the game the first time, the remixed version is really cool, but there's no way I'm gonna go through levelling back up to 80 again. I've got like 110 hours dumped into the original version, can't go back now.

My only real complaint about FF7: CC is leveling up is controlled by DMV.

Lost Odyssey definitely gets my nod. Really reminded me of the games I used to enjoy a few generations ago - and was generally well done.

This gen has not had enoght JRPGs for my taste but I guess FE or FF7:CC

I spent most of my time this gen playing Pokemon so maybe

Picking up Digimon:Dawn at the Gamespot Gameday thing, so I will try that one out to.

I also loved FF3 remake...So I just don't know

P3 and Lost Odyssey are a generic as they come. I would save judgment until some new big time RPG's hit. CC was a joke too, fanservice. I actually really liked brave story for the PSP and i don't know why. The graphics were great and the story was original, just fun to play i guess.

Of the list I've only played TWEWY... but then again TWEWY rocks so it's cool. XD I want to try persona 3, hear it's good but... I hardly play my PS2 these days and don't have the games on that system on my high priority list anymore.

Does Super Paper Mario count as a JRPG? It's my favorite RPG of this gen.k_smoove

I totally forgot about Super Paper Mario...I guess it does! If a bit of a platformer as well.

If Lost Odyssey had been release any other generation, it would've been run of the mill.
