If you want JRPG's then buy a PS2

I'm not after turn based, just menu driven

. i.e. not having to frantically aim like FPS's. I like my console games to be more relaxed affairs!

managed to pick up White Knight Chronicles 2 in a video game shop sale for £12.99 includes the first game so i'll try that one first. Hope i like it

You have FF7. Why aren't you playing it?!

If you liked FF13, any **** will do.

I do feel the need now to question if its some sort of mental illness.

Do you concider it normal behaviour to pop into the thread of games you dislike and say so? I mean there are 100s of threads in Consoles, some of the games i dont like. Football ones in particular. yet I havent visited every fifa thread and posted my dislike. And not many others do either.

Why is it you always ALWAYS feel the need with regards to FF13 :confused:

And you do it in such a way that you belittle others for liking it. I just think its so damn weird

In answer to thread, Final Fantasy XIII-2 is a good bet. Eternal Sonata is pretty good, although very different with regards to a story to anything I've played before.

White Knight Chronicles II. It also includes a remastered version of the first game so this is a very good package and are exclusives to the PS3. Has online Co-Op options too, similar to a Phantasy Star Online type of game.

This ^ ^ or better still...

Invest in a Wii(£40 or so) and get Xenoblade Chronicles from Amazon for £22.99, and a classic controller for a tenner. Money very well spent.

I dont agree Eternal Sonata was awful, it was one of the earlier games on my 360 and I genuinely enjoyed it. It was also quite a good looking game for it's release date.

It's a semi-realtime combat JRPG, and whilst the story is bizzare, the reverance to Chopin and music in general meant I rather liked it. The reviews at the time were mixed, some liked it, some didn't, so YMMV.

I got Eternal Sonata free when I bought a 360 Arcade and have to say I agree with the above.

Eternal sonata was slightly polished on the PS3, its meant to be quite abit better to play on the PS3 than 360, and its a definate must for any RPG fan. Make sure you grind your levels quite alote at the start though else you might not make it past the 1st boss! Theres loads of characters to get, and they level up even when not selected in your party which helps when you grind up the levels for everyone.
