Mass Effect.. great third person shooter + really good rpg.
Lost Odyssey... best JRPG on the 360 and possibly best one this console gen (I haven't played Valkyrie Chronicles though).
I see that you added Eternal Sonata... that game is horrible. The graphics are pretty but that is the only redeeming factor. Its easily the worst JRPG i've ever played in my life. The story is really heavy handed and treats you like you're to stupid to pick up on the themes so it spells out everything constantly over and over and over and over and over again. Theres nothing to explore (every town is like one entrance one exit with no sidequests worth mentioning). The combat is button mashing. Just mash the attack button and you'll never come close to losing. I've never played an RPG where I didn't need to use an item during combat, I never had a character lose all their HP and I never even lost 1/3 of my health on any character. Even during the final boss button mashing will have you beat him with ultimate ease.
Its like you literally walk from one cutscene to the next (and they aren't even all that good and for some reason theres a weird pause after everyone speaks so the conversations never really flow right) and its broken up with insanely easy button masher combat and super simple mazes (except for one thats insanely hard).
