So do you think Eternal Sonata and Blue Dragon will fill in the one genre that seems to be really lacking on the 360? I have heard mixed feeling about the games and that is discouraging since I am still holding out on a 360 purchase until the system gets some decent RPGs. Ya think it would be worth getting the system for these 2 games and probably Lost Odyssey later this year?

Well, I really couldn't say. I hate most turn based RPG's. I'm a huge fan of the open ended RPG's though, such as Morrowind, Oblivion, Mass Effect (hopefully) ect.

If you are going from what was heard/seen then Mass Effect, Blue Dragon, Fable 2 and some others are definitely going to be worth it. There has been a lot of positive feedback on these, especially Mass Effect.

Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey and Eternal Sonata aren't "decent" to you? Cry On and Infinite Undiscovery in 2008 along side The Last Remnant. Also Western RPGs Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Mass Effect, Two Worlds, Kindom Under Fire: CoD, Too Human and Fable 2. That's atleast 6 JRPGs and 6 Western RPGs. 3 JRPGs in a year on a Western console isn't enough for you eh?

I think Oblivion with just its expansiveness is a reason to buy 360 for RPGs. Im sure more will come like those mentioned previously in the thread.

The fact that you can't mod the game to be fun on the 360 is enough for anyone to run away screaming. Oblivion is garbage but with mods it's playable.

Well in the long term the RPGs for the 360 is looking very strong by the end of this year you will be able to buy 4 rpgs, Mass Effect, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, and Lost Odyssey. Plus more on the way like Too Human(well if we ever get a freaken release date lol) and Fable 2.

there are enough RPGs coming to fill that void on the 360, and most of them, if not all, of very good quality

Mass Effect as well as Fable 2 should be great additions to the 360 for RPG lovers.

Ive heard good things about both but theres no way Im buying it. I hate J-RPG's. Always the same type of story, tragedy to a young man that threatens the world so he goes to save it.

People who hate on Oblivion are idiots who cant play the game. If you actually are smarter than your average chimpanzee then Oblivion is one of the greatest games onthis generation of systems. I've had the game for over a year and I still play it, and im still experiencing new things in the game.

lol not neccesarilytrue man, i am not an idiot byany means what so ever. but i dont really like oblivion for the simple fact way to many bugs. and glitches it has me locked in a quest the arena quest where you kill the last guy take his armor and bring it to that woman sitting on that chair, well i have the armor in my inventory, i can see it, the guy is naked out on the arena floor. i go to that woman she acts like i dont have the armor, not only that, but acts like i havent even beaten the dead guy on the floor yet, and that is a serious glitch, bug whatever you want to call it, and that is what P.O'd me about oblivion, it is a good game yes, but i dont like it that much anymore, i just hope they fix that kind of stuff when Elder Scrolls 5 comes out
