X360 Dominates 07 With Killer Line-Up of RPG's. (Facts Inside)

Pangs of distress for PS fans. That's all I see here.BalancedOpinion

Indeed, and none is coming to PS3, even Two Worlds that had an PS3 entry in gamestop was removed recently, Bioshock is 360 ONLY after X06, Infinite Undiscovery is co-developed by MS, all mistwalker games are 360 only, and what is left that COULD come to PS3 is Elveon, Two Words, Overlord and Trusty Bell, but none is even hinted for PS3 and all thought 360 exclusives for now

I don't know how you can deny it, the PS3 mainly has FF-XIII (Awesome series), which reasonable Cows admit probably won't even be out untill 08'.

In 2007, the 360 has a -MONSTER- line up of RPG's. It will be hard to pick a "Best RPG of 2007" between them all.


FABLE 2* A chance it wont make it untill early 2008.

MASS EFFECT* Yez plz, moar.

LOST ODYSSEY

BLUE DRAGON

OBLIVION EXPANSION: SHIVERING ISLE'S

BIOSHOCK* The successor of SystemShock? Yes plz, thankyou.

TWO WORLDS* Bad first showing, but is getting extensive overhaul.

ETERNAL SONATA* Almost forgot this one!


And that isn't even all, just the ones -I- like. Theres also a couple Multi-Plats I didn't list, like the LoTR one EA is doing, and Golden Axe, and I think Magna Carta 2. Elveon too.

I'd add Shadowrun, but its said to be a FPS. The last two were RPG's, so I'd be surprised if it didn't incorporate leveling up, and customization elements.

I can't beleive 07' is going to be such a great year for RPG's.

For fairness, heres a few RPG's I saw, but mainly the PS3 is getting 360 hand me downs.

OBLIVION (With Knights of the Nine)
ENCHANTED ARMS (Ehh... Decent I guess)

Counting the multi-plats, its pretty sad in comparison. I can't see a more dominated Genre this year, except maybe FPS too, if you give Halo3 all the credit most do.

Hey, I won't leave Sheep out either. Their biggest credit is, they get SSBB this year, which is the best fighting franchise ever, so they have that genre on LOCK. Party Games too.



Heres the two things I used as reference, along with some mild googling.

^ Most of those PS3's aren't even announced yet. 2008 and beyond.

http://www.gamespot.com/games.html?platform=1029&category=Role-Playing&type=games&mode=all&sort=views&sortdir=asc
^ Nearly every one of them is 2007, and Bioshock isn't even on there. Blaspheme!

You realize none of them are out, and of a more than likely chance of not meeting expectations. Meanwhile PS3s rpgs are 3 big names that generally do not dis-appoint. Being realistic, X360 isn't dominating 07 now, and it won't be by then end of the year. :lol:Adrian_Cloud

Yes let's discourage developing new IP's and go with the same formula over and over again. :lol:

Why can't  you just say that RPG's are finally picking up for the 360 instead of trying to claim dominance?

Blue Dragon as ALL 360 JRPG's is coming to US/UK and as soon as june 2007, and this is my most wnated game for summer, i can't see how it will flop, it will sell huge, it even sold huge in japan for 360 standards and mediocre support there

Go play Dungeons and Dragons: Legend of Darkmoon.

In the beginning, many american RPGs were FPS based.  Sure, it required a computer geek to press an arrow key, but it was an RPG.

This whole Japanese vs Western crap is crap.  An RPG isn't determined by perspective. But according to the generation Y, kids only consider an RPG and RPG if the characters are emo looking.

Why don't you correct and rewrite your post? "Blue Dragon is already a flop" :roll: Do you guys just make yourselves believe that to feel better? And it's coming to NA and every other region, so don't post something you don't know about.

It's funny how you're criticizing the TC on his post "to claim dominance", yet, you're doing something similar by stating false and negative info about Blue Dragon and talking about how you'll be playing other RPGs on other systems. Why can't you just say I'll be busy playing Rogue Galaxy and FFXII this year instead? Oh and guess what? I'll be playing Rogue Galaxy as well....and *GASP* :o anticipating most of these titles on the 360.

The only one's im looking foward to are Fable , Bioshock, and the Oblivion expansion which are all on PCPyroXD

Yes Fable 2 will be on PC, 1-2 years after 360 version is out, meaning 2-3 years from now or more, happy waiting.

I did not know that fact, from the idiotic posts i thought Blue Dragon had sold near ZERO in japan, 1/3 of 360 oweners is STUNNING really, show how great ANY RPG will do on 360, i am sure they are working like hell to make it for US/UK, i just LOVE that most RPG's from japan will DEFINATLY come to UK this time, unlike PS2-PS3, because simply they can't afford to loose US/UK costomers

Are there new sale numbers for Blue Dragon ??

Fable 2 (360)- , will have the best graphics EVER in a video game (technically + art style),
and the gameplay ideas seem over the top for next gen stuff, simply the most innovative game ever coming

Mass Effect (360)-, well getting down to a whole planet, and having such an amazing
lighting with HDR and shadows system ,which we have only seen GLIMPSES so far from
 some magazine scans (never shown a pic during proper day time yet), is just out of this world even for next gen.
The dialog system seems totally next gen too, and is a trilogy !!!

Lost Odyssey (360)-, well any game that ressembles FF series has to come 4th for me, directly after the king FF13, that one has AMAZING graphics too, and the setting seems KILLER

Blue Dragon (360)-, with GCI looking like graphics, and some stunig locales, and fluid animations, plus some info i got about some innovative features in battles and a job system,amkes this my 5th pick

Two Worlds (360)-, another Oblivion like free form game, with STUNNING graphics, i put it 6th for graphics alone, since i know nothing about actual gameplay

Bioshock (360)-, this comes 8th just because it lacks huge environments, but the graphics are STUNNING, better than most games i have seen to date, plus the gameplay seems so innovative,that this could well turn out to go up to 2ond place after Fable 2, just not yet

Overlord (360)-, well that one certaily looks great and innovates, with awhole upgradable goblin army to control, seems too cool to not come 9th

And now to the other RPG's/adventures that i know little of so i will just name them, they are less important but
could well turn out to take up the first spots too

Jade Empire 2 (this is the 10th spot, but since it is not even announced yet, it goes here)

Elveon (great graphics, but seems not like a true rpg)

Infinite Undiscovery (diablo looking like clone from Star Ocean creators)

Cry On (RPG with giants)

Trusty Bell (Looks AMAZING, and reminds me of mana series art but in full 3d)

Circle of Doom (another diablo like clone, from the well known series on xbox)

magna carta 2 (at least looked great on PS2, hopegully it is good)

Blue Dragon 2

Mass Effect 2-3

nasos_33333

Just to add some more

RUMORED - HINTED RPG's

Kotor 3 (hinted)
Dragon Age spin off (hinted)
Hellgate London (hinted)
Fallout 3 (certain)
Project Offset (almost certain)

Bioshock isn't an RPG. It's more of a shooter-survival/horror hybrid, with some RPG elements.project343

So, it is a survival horror FP RPG, which is ...AMAZING ???? Yes that must be it

Lost odessey has a '07 scheduled release date................LoganZRun

I know, like Blue dragon and Mass Effect, possibly Trusty Bell too

Whilst I agree that the 360 dominates in the RPG department this year. Bioshock is not a pure RPG and Fable 2, Lost Oddyssey and Two Worlds are doubtful for this yearcakeorrdeath

Fable 2 will come to PC.Davis092

Yes it will ....10 years after !!!!! WHO CARES ? I will play it DAY ONE, i am NOT waiting 304 years for it on PC, ok ?

And the non analog pc controls would SUCK anyway !!nasos_33333

I'm not sure if you are aware of this, but there is an edit feature where you can change or add to you post so that you don't have to double or triple post in every thread.

RUMORED - HINTED - NOT YET ANNOUNCED RPG's

Kotor 3
Hellgate London
Fallout 3

Multi

Aliens RPG, Oblivion, Enchanted Arms

So 32 RPG's are ANNOUNCED so far, another 2 100% coming, like kotor 3 and Fallout, and another 4 rumored

So are 32 enough ? And imagine how many will be announced in 2007 !!!!! With the slow PS3 sales and HUGE 360 install base, noone would make a PS3 game anymore

EDIT: I forgot Two Worlds which is STILL 360 exclusive, a PS3 version is considerd but NOT certain, so that brings us to

33 EXCLUSIVE RPG's announced !!!! Another 2 100% coming, so adding all we will have 38 RPG's on 360 !!!! and still 4 rumored

[QUOTE="HostileEffect"]Bioshock is on the PC and PS3, Mass Effect and Fable 2 look hawt but will probably find their way to the PC soon enough. The rest you listed... not interested.Stig-FTW

HUGE 360 install base nasos_33333

Bioshock is not a full fledge RPG. It's an FPS with RPG elements. D0wnfall1

In other words, ala Duce Ex.  Bioshock is more of an action game with some story elements than a fps.  If Bioshock is a RPG, then I guess Fear was too.
