Good RPG for PS3?

[Dragonsoul]

Oh wow, after making my detailed earlier post, Final Fantasy XIII got announced for Xbox 360! This changes everything.

Best Console Exclusive Rpg's for each three home consoles:
Xbox 360: Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, Lost Odyssey
Xbox 360(upcoming): Tales of Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery, Fable 2, Cry On
Playstation 3: Folklore
Playstation 3(upcoming): Disgaea 3, White Knight Chronicles
Wii: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Super Paper Mario(platformer rpg), Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon
Wii(upcoming): Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, Next Zelda Game(unannounced but will be coming)
...I removed Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII from PS 3's upcoming top console exclusive rpg list. I think that FF V XIII will eventually be announced for a Xbox 360 release.

PS 3 has Disgaea 3 and White Knight Chronicles coming out. How popular is Disgaea 3 though? I believe that White Knight Chronicles will be as popular as the other big traditional rpg's I listed.

Huge news! I hope both versions of Final Fantasy XIII are almost exactly the same. I will probably get the Xbox 360 version, unless there's something special on the PS 3 version.

Sorry mate, there's no such thing as a 'good RPG' on the Ps3 at the present time.

Yes, I guess we are stuck without luck waiting for the upcoming games. In the mean time I am planning to replay some of the classics, specially from the FF series.

So you own a PS3? And you are primarly using it to play old games that were designed for a different system that is a hell of a lot cheaper to purchase than purchasing the PS3. I miss your logic.

And your argument about 'upcoming releases' - why don't you purchase the PS3 then, i assume the system will be cheaper then.

1) Never said I use the PS3 for playing them. I own a PS2 as well.

2) Perhaps because I had to money and wanted to play MGS4 now...?

So you spend $600 to play one game? (or what ever a PS3 + MGS costs...)

I spend my hard earned money in whatever I want to spend it in, sir. I don't have to explain anything to you. Now, do you actually have anything to contribute to this thread? No? Then spare us the "lectures".

Thank you.

Yea, I was going to buy Playstation 3 specifically for Final Fantasy XIII, a similar situation, although Final Fantasy Versus XIII was also going to be console exclusive for it.

Now I am not sure if I'll get it and which console I'll play FF XIII on. I probably will get a PS 3 though since it's a Blu-Ray player, and at the same time I can play some other games on it, the best console exclusive game they have that I like may be Metal Gear Solid 4. Anyways I'll get a Xbox 360 also because that's where the best rpg's are going I think. Anyways, I suddenly have a huge desire to play Mass Effect. But I just found out that Playstation 3 will have a USA release of Eternal Sonata. That's a great game, maybe I should buy a PS 3 and get that game, and beat it again, I loved it!

What system will you play FF XIII on? I'm not sure yet but I'll have both consoles.

Let Egami throw away his/her money when she could be putting it to better use, Shoeless hobo. We'll never understand folk like him/her.

Consumerism. Isn't it great!

Obviously on PS3 which is what I have. I was also interested in the BR capability of the system as well as the living room multimedia hub that it is. While MGS4 was the game I waited for before getting the system, it is not the only game I wanted or like for PS3. There are also plenty of games to look forward to: FF XIII and versus XIII, Resident Evil 5, The Last Remnant and Valkyria Chronicles.

Apparently Shoeless Hobo can't wrap his head around the concept of buying a console now with plans to play it a lot more later.

Why wait? She can buy a PS3 now (maybe even the 80 gig limited edition MGS4 bundle) and play the game she wants to play without waiting, and then when new games come out she wants, she can play those too. Why bother to wait? What good will that do? What's the difference between spending the money now or spending it later other than the fact that she can get a better version of the console with the limited edition of the game she wants now?

Well, by waiting, the system will inevitably be cheaper. Other than that, most people buy a gaming console to play games - something which the PS3 lacks in quality.

Except Sony stated recently that they had no plans to drop the price of the PS3 any time soon. Even if they did, so what? Maybe it's worth it to spend the extra $50 or whatever to play it now and not like four months in the future when the next good PS3 RPG comes out? By your logic, you should only buy consoles after they're dead, since they'll have their full library and everything will be dirt cheap.

Or buy it for a price that you agree is worth paying for. By that i mean a constant flow of quality games being released.

$500 (or whatever it costs in your country, $700 in mine ) just to play metal gear - no thanks.

Usually when you buy a system, you get a game as well. Ergo you're getting it to play that game. Great games might be out at the time that you want but couldn't afford, or will be out in the future. In either case they are future prospects. So no matter the scenario, the simplified version is the same. I bought a 360 and Mass Effect. She bought a PS3 and MGS4. We paid hundreds of dollars for initially one game *Shrug*

I know I argued against crazy fans being upset for no reason, I had issues with the logic. I'll also argue against fans on the opposition using crazy logic too :(

She DID buy it for a price she felt it was worth paying. So did I. I bought it for MGS4 last month, and I plan on getting Soul CAlibur IV this month. That puts gives me one more game than she appears to be looking forward to in the near future. But I sure as hell don't feel like I wasted my money, because whatever I'd end up paying in the future, it was worth the difference to get two games from two of my favourite game series' now.

Nobody is telling you to buy a PS3 so don't worry about that. Just stop acting like you know whether or not she'll be satisfied with her purchase. Nobody asked you.
