You can base your decision on games that are out right now, and on games that have been announced for the future.

Take your pick.

Which system will be the highest recommended to RPG gamers?

That could potentially fall under the Wii category because of the VC. Hopefully the VC SNES section gets some more RPG's soon because even though I didn't put classic consoles on this list, I agree with you. SNES was the golden age of RPG's.

But let's try sticking to the list of modern consoles please, everyone.

Final Fantasy owns all... u just cant deny the franchise is good

FFVII: 9.5

FFVIII: 9.5

FFIX: 8.9

FFX: 9.3 (My favourite one)

FFX-2: 8.3*

FFXI: 8.2*

FFXII: 9.0

*These two dont really count X-2 was a sequal to X and XI was a MMORPG

and if u notice Final Fantasy does its best when it gets to a new console:

VII ps1 just started

X ps2 just started

now its gonna be

FXIII and FF versus XIII ps3 just started

sorry, the fanboy in me came out for a second. :P

i'd go with DS. now with these dragon quest games jumping over, throw in ASH, FF III, and all of those GBA games, it's perfect for the RPG gamer.

The Ds probably has more than the360, but in terms of next gen system the 360 definitely has more rpgs than the wii or ps3. BTW your a total fanboy if you say ps3, it only has one announced this year(folklore). 360 has got four coming out Mass Effect, Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Eternal Sonata.

Who voted for Wii? It only has one RPG coming (Fire Emblem) and even though it's my favorite series, it doesn't even have an RPG out yet.

PC, though I wouldn't include nwn (original campaign) as one of the best greatest RPG ever made...

It was rather linear.... and the forced go fetch (insert names) items quests annoyed the hell out of me.

As far as console's I'm guessing 360, but PC will always have an edge because it has soooo many years of good rpgs

I agree as well.

And I fail to understand why PC is not an option in that poll.

All my favorites are on PC but if you are talking consoles only then I would have to say 360 right now, maybe the PS3 in a year or two.

Really, its the PS2 by far.  Whether its standard RPG's or Action RPG's, the PS2 kills all the rest.

So the Xbox 360 could win the poll.

FFXIII is going to be released in 08, maybe even 09.  I would hardly call that "just getting started" considering the fact that the PS3 was launched in 06

If there was an option to include a 6th choice, I would have put PC in there.

When I think of games I think of dedicated gaming consoles. Not a PC. Sorry.

The Mass Effect trilogy will more than satisfy me for the coming years, but I'm liking Eternal Sonata.

Funny, when I think of games, I think of my gaming PC instead of the consoles I don't own. :?

he asked most rpgs playable on the system... so therefore PS2 games count as well... but 360 is more legit in terms of future rpgs

You're missing out. PC is one of, if not the best, RPG platforms ever.

PS3>360 (not sure DS, Wii, etc.). FF13, FFv13, White Knight all look like very promising games.

Edit: Anyone who puts Mass Effect, Lost Oddyesy and Eternal Sonata>FF13, FFv13, and White Knight needs to think some more.

actually i take it back. i forgot the diablo franchise for some reason. anyways, as far as consoles go... i had to basically force myself to finish KOTOR, I tried really really hard to get into Oblivion but hated the combat and level system. Iv'e heard so many good things about Fable, so i guess ill have to give that one a shot. But im a huge fan of turn based combat. Kepp in mind im not saying Western Rpgs are in any way bad. I just havent played many that grab me.
