FFvXIII or Star Ocean 4

Final Fantasy Versus XIII, or Star Ocean 4.

That's pretty much what it's going to boil down to when you compare exclusive upcoming JRPGs on 360 & PS3.

Other upcoming 360 JRPG exclusives:

1) Tales of Vesperia

2) Infinite Undiscovery

3) Last Remnant (or whatever... I forgot what it's called)

PS3:

1) Valkyria Chronicles

2) White Knight Story

3) PS3 Tales game

My vote goes to PS3, since I believe Tri-Ace simply doesn't have what it takes anymore... they were flat out BAD last generation. Of course, the obvious drawback for PS3 would be to wait longer. I mean, we don't even know the title for the Tales game yet.

Since FF13vs is a spin off, and not the main FF and i hate that very serious art style, i would go with Star Ocean 4 easilly

As for the rest, i would go for Infinite Undioscovery 2ond and White Knight 3rd

I would never touch any Strategy RPG like Valkyria and i never liked Tales games in general

Generally i never buy any Square games other than the main FF ones, strictly, i have bought some spin offs and were horrible games for me

I don't think Versus XIII is your average spin-off... I mean, look at it. I'm sure the budget for that game would at least be equal to FFXIII's.

I'd call it more in the lines of Kingdom Hearts, mainly because of similarities in style and gameplay.

IU = 8.0 quality MAX (in my opinion of course). I agree with you, that Versus XIII's style is not in my liking... but SO4's has got to be equally as bad (mainly because it reminds me of SO3, and SO3 has got to be one of the worst JRPGs in JRPG history).

Is the PS3 actually getting a tales game or is it still a rumor?opex07

Wasn't it actually confirmed by namco? I don't remember exactly, but i'm 90% sure. I'm not going to dig up a link... so if anyone wants to try and prove me wrong, then feel free.

Well, SO4 has dragons and amazing art for my tastes, so even if it turned out a bad game, i would buy it still just for the world

Though SO3 was praised for its combat system by many reviews, i guess SO4 will be one of the best JRPG's ever created, at least imo, and from what i have seen so far, and given i loved SO2 and SO3 (but less than 2)

SO2 was excellent, and i'd definitely be getting that for PSP.

I hated SO3 with a passion. Combat was OK... do the Orichalcum trick and everything turns meaningless. Story... wow. Worst plot twist. I mean.. *SPOILER****** You find out that you live inside a videogame... seriously, YUCK.

Valkrie Profile 2 = ruined the series. Of course, no offense to you... I just feel that Tri-Ace really bombed last gen. Big Time.

isn't last remnant multiplat?exiledsnake

I know it's definitely timed exclusive, since PS3 doesn't even have a release date for the game.

Oh well, it doesn't really look that good anyway.

isn't last remnant multiplat?exiledsnake

Yes

Why can't you just get both.protoman170776

...Lot of money. Especially two consoles.

You better not be attempting some sort of 'they're all going to be on 360' joke. I'll smack you.

FFV13 easily. I stopped playing SO after the 3rd one, man, what POS that was.RazMaTaz-1

FO SHO.

SO you dont have a ps3 or Xbox 360 yet?protoman170776

I really don't understand what you're getting at.

I don;t think fanboys care about quality RPGs.Blue-Sky

Yeah they do. They care about exclusivity rights and review scores... and sales.

Why not put FF13 against Star ocean 4 ?

Oh wait there both coming to the 360 :lol:

Final Fantasy XIII still beats Star Ocean: The Last Hope :|

Tri Ace has to convince me that they are better developers then last gen. They lost there touch alittle with Star Ocean: Till the End of Time and Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria.

I hope its ported for the fans though. I could care less. I want them both now.

P.S. If Star Ocean 4 stays exclusive i'll buy a 360 if thats any refreshment to you fanboy ways;)

leadernator

Last Remnant is for ps3 as well and for Star Ocean 4 i dont believe is exclusive for the 360 when they show the trailer at e3 and so on they dont said in the trailer exclusive to the 360 like they show in Infinite Undiscovery probably it was a deal with microsoft in which they paid them to don't talk yet about a ps3 version probably a timed exclusive or something like that

If you don't own a 360 what choice do you really have? I'm not going to go out & buy a PS3 for any game coming to it. That's equivalent to adding $400 to the price tag of a single game. After I'm done with it, would I just go back to the 360? I'm guessing Versus will make its way over to the 360, no worries.jknight5422

I agreed with every thing you said except versus going to the 360.

Star Ocean 4. If FF vs XIII is anything like FFX-2 (which it will be), it won't be amazing like most people think.xsubtownerx

can'y you say the the same for FF 13 and versus is way different than x-2.

Star Ocean 4. If FF vs XIII is anything like FFX-2 (which it will be), it won't be amazing like most people think.xsubtownerx

X-2 was a sequel :roll: Versus XIII is a totally different game with a totally different team:|. If anything XIII would be more like X-2 because of the producer is the same.

Edit: I think people should be putting Star Ocean: The Last Hope against White Knight Story. Thats a better vs then Final Fantasy Versus XIII against Star Ocean

P.S. I hope Star Ocean stays exclsuive, maybe I will actually have a reason to purchase a 360.

So why give it such a LAME title if it's such a different game? From what I've read, this game is going to be the equivalent of FFX-2.

I agree there is a slim chance that star ocean may be multiplat but I am not going to buy a system for one game.

Well, Versus means going against or in different direction and the two titles are way different from each other. Reality vs Fantasy so to speak.

If your talking about the field area then yes XIII and Versus XIII will be an evoultion of what you can do on the field like specail actions and stuff. Versus XIII you can transport and in XIII you can roll and stuff. I think your just judging the game too quick without knowing anything about it.

I really hope the collabortion between Square and TriAce help them wiht Star Ocean. Tri Ace is losing touch with what they truly were. They need improve and Square might help them. Im looking forward to Star Ocean, it ought to be sweet. I hope.

What if SO4 goes multi-plat?nervmeister

Well then I get to play the game early:P

Well, there are other reasons, Star Ocean isn't the only one, but its a main focus.

If it goes multiplat then its a plus to everyone, but a $299 60 gig (likely rumour) is hard to pass up.

I would rather have Final Fantasy Versus XIII. I've never played a Star Ocean title (really wanted to play SO3 but never got around to it; and I want to pick up SO and SO2 when the ports come out on PSP).

Plus, Versus is being developed by the Kingdom Hearts team so if the game turns out to be a more mature story with great gameplay that has grown since KH2, it could possibly become my favorite game.

Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I don't see how such a statement can be made aside from the fact that FFX-2 was a sequel and Versus is another part of the Fabula Nova compilation. What exactly have you read that has made you think this is going to be the case?

It gonna be more action oriented in the field like X-2. Both XIII and Versus XIII. You be able to jump and roll and in Versus XIII you can teleport so they say.

Either thats what he meant or he just let some fanboy rage kick in for a min.;) It happens.

Who cares! I can own out both now! Who's with me?sargentbotk

This thread is obviously about EXCLUSIVE UPCOMING JRPGs :|

I can't believe immature crap like this is allowed in SW. We got so many rules... they should be aimed at the bad guys.
