    Because SO4 isn't even good. For god's sake, Enchanted Arms is a better 7th generation JRPG than SO4.

    Like Star Ocean 4.
    If you believe that SO4 should have been nominated, maybe you should have done so! The only way games got on this list was to be nominated, so if it's not here... well, you can only blame yourself.

    I don't think SO4 belongs on this list and I say that as someone who likes SO4 a lot. xD

    Enchanted Arms was not better though good God man.

    I thought Enchanted Arms was pretty interesting! That being said, I managed to play a whole hour of it before the disc crapped out and refused to load past a certain point. Great quality there.

    Who's talking about Enchanted Arms? I was talking about FFXIII and Star Ocean 4 is definitely better than that. Infinitely better environments and dungeons, better soundtrack, better database (the Dictionary >>>>>>>> Datalog for explaining plot info) and overall I hated no one in the SO4 party as much as I hated Lightning.

    Oh and oen more thing. The game is actually FUN. By Orphan's Cradle I never wanted to play FFXIII or its cursed sequels again whereas the Palace of Creation and its awesome final dungeon theme both made me feel like I had actually done something worthwhile by playing the game.

    Well I just had enough faith in this board to think FFXIII wouldn't get six votes for being one of the best games of the generation.
    More votes than NieR or Tales or Xenoblade and I thought people here loved those games.

    If we were doing a thread for the best Games of the 5th Generation, would FFVIII outrank Xenogears?

    Six votes and tied with Mass Effect 2, Grand Theft Auto 5, one vote below Demon's Souls and two votes above Crisis Core.

    Well played, XIII fans. Well played.

    Nier was seriously terrible, one of the worst things I have had the displeasure of playing (look at all these differing opinions! Games that I don't agree with got nominated. Oh well. xP). Both Tales of Xillia and Vesperia got 4 nominations each. Xenoblade made the list. The difference between a place on the Top 20 and not was one nomination. The rankings were differing by one nomination. More nominations to make a bigger gap would have been nice, but we got what we got.

    Again, SO4 didn't make it because neither you nor anyone else nominated it. Simple as, you can only blame yourself for it not showing up at all. :}

    Nier is unpolished greatness Also, it definitely would have been one of the first off of my list of nominations had I just procrastinated my list and wrote it a few days later.

    Nier was... addictive. I was compelled to play, not that I was enjoying it all that much. :3

    I can understand why people wouldn't like it. Sort of. I just love that if you enjoy the game, playing it a second time actually expands and changes the story quite a bit just because (SPOILER) you can now understand the shades and hear what they are saying and thinking. It makes you feel like a terrible person. I also love the music.

    So far the only games I recognize mentioned for the last couple of posts was Enchanted Arms. I have that for the Xbox 360, played a bit and then I quit for some reason...

    I can see why people like Nier too! It just wasn't my cup of tea. xD I found it fairly dull, and although some things were pretty interesting, it just wasn't enough. Also the music was painfully repetitive at times. I did complete it to 100%, so I got... something out of it. Love-hate relationship.

    I did really like Kaine as a character too! Although, she had dumb clothes, stupid corset-butt.

    I hate Kaine's clothes. I know they "explain" it sort of it, but it's still stupid. I'll give you that the music can be repetitive too. I still like it a lot. I didn't complete the game to 100% though. I played through it twice and then watched the 2 endings I didn't get yet online. I probably would have hated it if I tried to do 100% since the sidequests are painfully dull after a while. Also fishing sucks in that game and I refused to do that anymore than I have to.
