[QUOTE="mistervengeance"]jrpgs on the 360 are garbagemistervengeance

Better than ps3 jrpgs, which so far dont even exist (unless you count Enchanted Arms).

i never said anything about ps3's rpgs. i know for a fact that they suck.

however, i also know that every jrpg on the 360 is trash

Eternal Sonata is actually pretty good.

i'll try it some time, just hearing that stupid storyline and what the characters are named shyed me away from it.

Eternal Sonata is complete garbage. One of the worst JRPGs Ive ever played. The battle system has no depth, there are no sidequests, the characters are more annoying than any other game (they make Blue Dragon's characters seem good in comparison), the story is uninteresting because of the extremely annoying characters, the game is very linear, and basically there is no depth whatsoever in the game and it doesnt give much reason to even play it.

[QUOTE="TerroRizing"]This myth needs debunked, JRPGs not named Final Fantasy dont sell well outside japan. For example Chrono Trigger has sold more than 2.36 million copies in Japan and 290,000 abroad, think im wrong? Name one JRPG that has sold well in north america thats not a final fantasy game. Also, stop saying that 360 fans buy less JRPGs than sony fans (refering to north america). Really its a regional thing, just like FPS dont sell well in japan.Javy03

Yes your right, it is a regional thing, and the 360 having 70% of its fanbase in one region is gonna hurt it vareity wise.

If your talking about now then yes, if your talking about later mid 08 to 09 then we don't know for sure. Too many titles up in the air.
