The 360 is FINALLY getting some great RPGs and I'm looking forward to them. But I take FOREVER to finish an RPG since I have a limited amount of gameplay time... anyway.. I play the demo for both Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata and both look amazing.. Personally I like the combat in Eternal Sonata over Blue Dragon... What do you guys think? Basing your opinions on the Demos, which game do you tihnk will be better?

Both of those games are a little to Bizarre for my tastes. The RPG Im looking foward to is Mass Effect.

Blue Dragon looks really cool, I haven't tried Eternal Sonata, but obliviously Mass Effect will also be really good.

The blue dragon demo was absolutely terrible, i don't see why anyone would buy that.

Eternal sonata isn't my taste, so i'm not getting that either.

Lost Odyssey will be the best rpg for the 360, once it comes out.

It's one expensive year. :( So many good games on every console and PC, but so little time.

Let's not forget two worlds...I mean it probably won't be that great, but still possibly worth the purchase. :)

Well I'm thinking the best RPG is going to be Mass Effect, and I like Eternal Sonata better than Blue Dragon judging from the demos. Haven't played Two Worlds or Lost Odyssey yet, though.

Personally I don't really like what I have seen in Lost Odyssey and Two Worlds. There's nothing really new in both of the gams... they both seem like a regular old-school rpg (Final Fantasy, Xenosaga, etc) RPG's with strict turn-based combat gets boring after a while.. not matter how cool you think the summons are at first.. they get boring eventually, making the rest of the game a drag. Final Fantasy lived so long with the same combat system becuase of the great stories. Thats why I like Eternal Sonata, Blue Dragon, and Mass Effect... they bring something new to the RPG genre.. and for those of you whoe havn't tried Eternal Sonata. I reccomend downloading the Demo... its great :)

The demo for Eternal Sonata was rather impressive. It has a unique story, impressive visuals for that type, and a cool combat system. That's def. going to be a good game. Blue Dragon I was REL;LY excited for before I played the demo. I don't think the demo really gave a good impressiona bout the rest of the game since there were some framerate issues. The combat system was nice although I'm not as excited for it as I was pre-demo playing. Still going to pick it up though. Now Mass Effect and Lost Odyssey are games I'm really looking forward too. They look like top-of-the-line RPG's for the 360, which is FINALLY getting some JRPG love.

I hated both those demos, then again, I hate turn based RPG's :P

I'm really looking forward to Mass Effect though.

That my opion as well. Blue Dragon is more hardcore then Eternal Sonata but Eternal probably will be a better game and Mass Effect would own all.
