Is 360 the current king of the JRPG? It has a solid AA JRPG now, I think that makes it the current king.

When it comes to current gen consoles then you could say that the 360 is the JRPG system to have at the moment.

Eternal Sonata is multiplat...

and remember Blue Dragon, that was a stellar title (/sarcasm)

I would still say the PS3 is king of JRPG, but thats the reason I didnt buy it, i dont like JRPGs

You don't become king with a few titles, most of which are mediocre.

Yup, because of the two sweetest words in the English language default.. default!

Sure the 360 is the JRPG king now, but that will change when the PS3 gets White Knight Story and FF13. But the 360 should get a most improved star. Because it was alot better than last generation.

I guess by that logic it is the king of next gen jrpg's, but thats more of a statement as to the sory state of jrpg's on next gen consoles more then a testamony to the xbox doing it well.

But I say no. ps3 may not have any next gen titles yet (they came slow for the ps2 as well) but its laundry list of good to great ps2jrpg's that you can play on your ps3 still make it the king.

It is the next gen king atm. Eternal Sonata is pretty good so far, if it weren't for those D**** history lessons that tie into the games story. I DON'T CARE ABOUT TEH REVOLUTION IN RANDOM COUNTRY A.

as though the reviewers opinions are more valid then your own? they arent.

That aside I dont think a demo for jrpg's... or almost any rpg,will be a good measure. Not to mention outside of a demo you find totally broken or gameplay that just totally blows.... you cant play a demo and make a comment on the game like you know anything about it.

You can say the demo sucks but thats about it.

I really hate the user reviews for Blue Dragon. You can tell a lot of teenagers and idiot adults played a 50-60 hour game for the first 16-20 hours, then got online to give you an expert opinion on the game.

About the only thing a demo can provide for a game like that is an idea of what it will look like and an intro to the battle system. Until you get the chance to level up and customize your own character and get into the story ( witch usually takes 12+ huors for a jrpg) the only thing a demo will tell you is if the game is totally broken.

its just that the battle system seemed kinda off where they time you and you just move and attack. i think that is pretty much turnbased except they want you to participate some more. it felt like move to enemy then button mash and defend. but perhaps if i rent the game it'd be better. but the demo wasa huge diappointment :( usually demos get me wanting to play the game but if you're going to make a bad demo i dont think the demo should be made.

If it scores an 8.5 it's a bad game? I'll be damned! Did not know that... better scratch MP3 off my Now Playing list.
