>>> Im always hearing about Wild Arms games, but I have never played one.. :[
Never played the first, second was awesome, three was, for the most part mediocre, however the Divine Fortress was amazing. And IV was just all sorts of awesome, and one of the best RPG battle systems I've ever used, it uses this Hexogon shaped Grid, and thankfully the Vth Vangaurd is reusing it.
I love the series because it gives an awesome Old West feel to the game, especially the second one. This is one of my most wnated titles, even more then FF XIII or Makai Wars.
Actually I played like 10 minutes of Wild Arms 1 years ago, and I liked it some. Dang, there are so many great rpg's that I haven't played(Chrono Cross!). :D
Is the Wild Arms series more popular or the Suikoden series?

Been a gamer since,been a gamer still...
I'm resurrecting my thread as I believe that since we are closer to the fall rpg season we have more information about the release dates for the games. Based on new information, here's the new order I'm guessing...
Heroes of Mana(Nintendo DS) - August 14th confirmed! I'm not sure if this is considered late summer off-season or the start of the fall rpg season.
Blue Dragon(Xbox 360) - August 28th confirmed! This is the same day as Wild Arms: The Vth Vanguard!
Wild Arms: The Vth Vanguard(PS 2) - August 28th rumored? I read that the release date was August 28th but I am not sure how reliable or official this date is. This comes out the same day as Blue Dragon!
Fire Emblem(Wii) - September I'm guessing. I have to think about when this game will come out as I just remembered about it. I think September has space for this came to come out. Probably early September I think.
Eternal Sonata(Xbox 360) - September confirmed release date. I have to think about when this game will come out as I just remembered about it and found out it will come out in September. Probably early September I think.
Mass Effect(Xbox 360) - September 18th I'm guessing. This game was announced for spring season 2007 but hasn't come out yet, it's been delayed. I'm thinking September 18th it will come out because nothing else has been announced for September and a late September date gives people a chance to beat Blue Dragon(confirmed August 28th) and Wild Arms: The Vth Vanguard(rumored August 28th).
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings(Nintendo DS) - October 9th or October 16th I'm guessing. October release confirmed. I think maybe October 9th or October 16th to give it space between probable release dates for Mass Effect(September 18th) and Lost Odyssey(October 30th).
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions(PSP) - October 23rd or October 30th I'm guessing. It was announced for October release. I'm thinking atleast two weeks after Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings comes out.
Lost Odyssey(Xbox 360) - October 30th I'm guessing. October release confirmed. This is moved up to an October release date instead of December! I think October 30th to give people a chance to beat Mass Effect and Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, which I believe will come out in late September(September 18th) and early October(October 9th or October 16th) respectively.
Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix(PS 2) - November 20th I'm guessing? Not sure yet but I highly believe it will come out in November. November 20th is the primetime release date in my opinion. This is the same day that I believe that The Elder Scrolls IV: The Shivering Isles will come out for PS 3.
The Elder Scrolls IV: The Shivering Isles(PS 3) - November 20th I'm guessing? This is out for PC and Xbox 360 but the PS 3 version isn't out yet. I'm thinking it'll get a primetime spot just like the other three releases of The Elder Scrolls IV did(Spring 2006, Fall 2006, Spring 2007, and Fall 2007). I think November but it could be earlier considering that it's already out for PC and Xbox 360. November 20th is the primetime release date in my opinion. This is the same day that I believe that Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix will come out.
ASH: Archaic Sealed Heat(Nintendo DS) - December 4th or December 11th I'm guessing. December release confirmed. This was announced for December a while back, but that was the same day that Lost Odyssey was announced for December and Lost Odyssey got moved up to October. I think it will come out on December 4th or December 11th while there are a ton of people doing Christmas shopping.
Dragon Quest Swords(Wii) - 2008 release date confirmed. It was announced for a 2008 release date I believe, probably Spring 2008 I believe.
Fable 2 - 2008 release date confirmed. So far it is scheduled for sometime in 2008 I am reading. I am not sure if it will be released in the Spring or the Fall yet.
I hope to finish up Final Fantasy XII, Rogue Galaxy, and Alundra 1 in time before the fall rpg season starts on August 28th. All four top rpgs this fall season that I plan on playing all come out within a 9 week period I believe! They are in (probable) chronological order: Blue Dragon(August 28th confirmed), Mass Effect(September 25th I'm guessing), Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings(October 9th or October 16th I'm guessing), and Lost Odyssey(October 30th I'm guessing). I have to buy a Xbox 360 and a Nintendo DS this fall! I'm gonna be real busy with these top rpg's!
What do you think of my temporary/updated fall 2007 rpg season release calendar? What games are you looking forward to playing? :)
EDIT:
I just remembered about Fire Emblem(Wii), Eternal Sonata(Xbox 360), and Final Fantasy Tactics(PSP) so I added early guesses about the release dates for them. I'll think more about this schedule and update it.
Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix is JP exclusive. It's not being released in the states.
?!
That's strange considering how well Kingdom Hearts 2 sold in Spring 2006. Why does Square Enix not plan to release it in the United States? Or maybe they are playing around with our lifestyle and will announce it later? What is your thought on everything else?
I want to play Lair !!!!
Gametrailers.com - Lair - Extended Battle Trailer
Where's my Persona 3!? That's suppose to be coming out this year as well. I've been waiting ages for it as well.:mad:
That and RW are the only ones I'm looking forward to.
As for Wild ARMS I seriously feel the games get worse with each sequel. 1 is awsome, 2 is great but not as good as 1, 3 is mediocre, 4 is kinda've a let down... maybe 5 will break the trend.
I only wish Capcom would get to work on Breath of Fire 6:rolleyes2
Persona 3 comes out on July 24th for PS 2, the same day that Final Fantasy II comes out for PSP. I don't consider that part of the fall season it's still summer. Also, Final Fantasy I for PSP which came out on June 26th(two days ago) is the other major summer off-season rpg release. Although Grim Grimoire which came out yesterday also for PS 2 could be considered kinda good maybe. Pokemon Battle Revolution came out on June 25th and may be ok but not signifigant. I believe I have summed up all signifigant things for the summer off-season as far as rpg's go. There is one more thing. Heroes of Mana(RTS rpg) comes out for Nintendo DS on August 14th but I am not sure whether or not to consider that the end of the summer off-season or the start of the fall season. I'm inclined to think of it as summer. Blue Dragon(Xbox 360) and Wild Arms 5(PS 2) come out on August 28th to start the fall rpg season.Quote:

Also a tactical rpg Luminous Arc by Atlus for Nintendo DS with music by Yasunori Mitsuda will come out in August, not sure how good it will be, watch out for it. Also, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Front Mission 1st(!!!) will come out for Nintendo DS this fall I found out. Also, Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles comes out for Sony PSP on September 15th, not sure how good it will be, watch out for it. Also Disgaea comes out for PSP in October. I just read that Bioshock comes out for Xbox 360, although it may be considered a first person shooter or action/adventure game, not an action rpg, not sure what to think of it yet. What are your thoughts on these releases I just told you about?
Anyone elce herd of folklore? Or is that just me XD
I played the demo of it, and it was amazing :D
Shame it was in japanise-ic XD
I know of it...
Folklore (video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Can you tell me more please? What do you know?
EDIT:
Heroes of Mana, I just read that it is scheduled for September-November release! Also I just read that Mass Effect is delayed from September until January 2008! With no Mass Effect this fall, that lightens my rpg load. I'll play FF XII: RW, Blue Dragon, and Lost Odyssey I think.
I'm bumping up this thread because we got some new release dates recently and I've done extensive research on this topic today. What follows is the Fall 2007 Rpg Release Calendar showing top rpgs for consoles and handhelds, chronologically.
I didn't list any unimportant rpg releases although I did list many medium quality releases. All of the top rpg's I did list. I consider there to be four ultimate rpg releases this fall. It looks like the season starts on August 28th with Blue Dragon(Xbox 360) I believe. After this we have The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass(DS) on October 1st. Next up is Lost Odyssey(Xbox 360) which I believe will come out on October 30th. Finally there is Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings(DS) on November 20th. November 20th is the super primetime release date!!Code:Fall 2007 RPG Release Calendar

*Mass Effect for Xbox 360 was delayed from September 2007 to January 2008
! before a date means that the title is a major release
In the list a ! before a release date means that the release is a major one. I just listed now the four bigger releases of the major ones. It appears that the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo DS are the dominant rpg machines. Wii, Playstation 3, Playstation 2, and Psp are less powerful as far as rpg's go I believe. I will be playing: Blue Dragon, Zelda, Lost Odyssey, and FF XII: RW. Please note that I am also planning to play Mass Effect(!)for Xbox 360, but that was delayed from September to January and is not coming out this fall as hoped.
Last fall the most ultimate rpg releases were chronologically: Xenosaga III, Final Fantasy XII, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess(Wii and Gamecube), and The Elder Scrolls IV: Knights of the Nine(Xbox 360 and PC). This year we have an idea of what this fall holds for rpg's. Please note that the Fall rpg season of a year is usually or always stronger than the spring rpg season I believe. Last year's Fall rpg season was stronger than 2007's but this year is not too far off I think.
What do you think of the Fall 2007 Rpg Release Calendar? What games are you going to buy? :)
I want Eternal Sonata so badly but I don't have a Xbox 360. :p
